wheel spin

A wheelspin occurs when the force delivered to the tire tread exceeds that of available tread-to-surface friction and one or more tires lose traction. This leads the wheels to "spin" and causes the driver to lose control over the tires that no longer have grip on the road surface. Wheelspin can also be done intentionally such as in drifting or doing a burnout.

    Snow mode

    We've had a smattering of snow here covering the roads with a hard crunchy icey surface so I thought I'd try snow mode. It works OK and makes it harder to spin the back wheels when accelerating. The ABS also works and sounds like you are crushing a plastic bottle under the wheel.
