WSI, RPG and ICON present: The SnoBall 500

Snow makes for a soft landing, lol...


How novice are you? This is a leave no man behind, and plenty of trucks and people to help you.

The are some good experience copilots (Trey for one) coming that would probably be able to show you a thing or two, if you didn't mind them driving the truck for a little while.

Have you driven in snow before?

Thanks honey...

I can drive good. I had lost my 04 SCrew w trailer a few years back due to bad weather and since then I get a bit nervous at higher speeds if the roads are icy.

Ideally I want to find a place that can teach me how to take this truck to the edge and i can learn to bring it back. Skids, ass end kicking out, spin outs etc.

I live in Minnesota so snow is not a problem. I'm picturing this as a high speed run through back trails. Or is it more of slower speed run?

If someone was with me that could show me proper techniques, I'm good with that as long as they're good and not just going to beat the shit out of my truck and walk away laughing!

It is going to be slower type trails.. If you know how to drive in snow, using momentum up a hill verses powering up it and burying it.
The Raptor with all the nannies on is very good in the snow, and very predictable in unpredictable conditions. The ONLY real issue is stopping in snow and ice. The trucks 3 tons can be a beast to stop..
