I'm sounding like a RG fanboi here but he did a recent cross-country drive in a new Viper on his way to meet up with Leno and ran into snow around Texas. Slow going apparently but did just fine.

Actually, it wouldn't shock me if RG was the guy driving the Viper that DrBoost saw...

RG kind of kicks butt.

Also Gen IV in the snow, that kicks all kinds of tail.

Well, I need decent tires and I'm driving an old school RWD turbo car. That makes for some white-knuckle driving here and there.

I also saw a Viper in the winter today; a pristine red RT/10 (early car) with the top off. I guess the winter situation is a bit different down here in Florida, though.

My camaro can be enough trouble with snow tires, but I think that is because they are a few seasons old and I moved to a place that gets much more snow.

A viper must have been a handful. But if you've got it, flaunt it.
