A little harder to gain traction if I start in 1st gear but starting in 2nd gear (snow mode in AT) with throttle control gets the job done. All TCS on of course.

Just wanted to see what others who DD their FT86 in icy/snowy condition do... with or without added weights in the trunk...
Yeah, snow mode is a nice feature.

The only thing that bears repeating as often as possible for casual visitors to the forum is that the stock Primacys are downright hazardous in any depth of snow/ice.
