Looks like they are driving on a frozen Lake in Michigan or Ontario.
I drive every day here in Minne-snow-ta using my stock 19 inch tires. It's just not a big deal... Another Guy at work is driving his RS with the stock (summer only, I might add) 20 inch tires. Why you ask? I can give you about $30,000 reasons. The Camaro handles just like every car did when I was growing up. Unless you owned an El Dorado or a Jeep, you had rear wheel drive. What I will say is that if there is more than an inch of snow on my driveway I can not get up the 5% incline to the road. My 1999 Gen4/3.8L Automatic has the same problem. So we shovel a lot...(or we just stay home from work...)

I like the "bone head" pictures. As for the snow Ill leave the Camaro in the garage till it all goes away.

I also went out after the snow stopped and took it around the shopping center. There was ice. Happy to report, the stabilitrak and pirelli scorpions worked great. After seeing this, I so want to get the Camaro out on the ice (frozen lake), and really see what it can do. Snow tires that can go 150mph... |

Yeah like someone else said earlier, I also am not that blown away. It's not like they were showing how it stays on the road in snowy conditions, they were just driving around a wide open area.
It is what it is. The car wasn't meant to handle like a dream in wintery conditions. It's drivable, yes. But I know the back end on mine has slid around a few times even when driving very conservatively. |

Here I am caught in a surprise snowstorm in Vermont. It handled so well I stopped and took pictures No issues on the curves or hills. I even passed a 4x4 stuck on a hill. If we get the snow predicted for tomorrow I will make a video of myself driving around the hills near my house. Unless its 24 inches then I'm staying home. I noticed that the SUV's are the ones I always see stuck on in a ditch. 4WD doesn't help a stupid driver.
