Driving in winter? in snow?

[6_dman_6]

I'm sure there are posts somewhere about this...if so please post them...
I was wodering is it possible to drive in the winter? how about in snow? Will it wreck the engine or anything else? As long as it's dry I think it would be fine, I"m just wondering...Also what temp is the lowest to drive in? I'm sure when it's like 30-60 below you probably can't run or won't want to.

No need to post them or repost them, just use the search button at the top. There's many out there on how to plasti-dip, using baloons, and an old sock over the head. These ideas will be great practice for you to use the search.

Go to lowes and pick up a can of PLASTI-DIP in the spray paint section. Dip all of your servos in there. Go slow and steady, usally takes 4 good coats. As of the reciver get a small party ballon. Wrap the reviver in the ballon. Put a zip tie at the neck of the ballon as low as possible, squirt some RTV in there, then put another zip tie on, creting a bubble.

Why the hell are you asking this in JUNE?

not sure what you are running in the snow but I tried running an RC10-T3 Electric in the snow last season. It did ok in the driveway where it was packed and iced over until the diode on the motor blew. It didn't do so well in the deep soft snow. If would just dig and bog down in it. If you want to play in the snow, you would be better off getting an RC snowmobil.

The search is too easy to use....is that why you guys don't use it?

This took me all of about 2 seconds to get, and I'm on dialup right now.

6 I dont think ya have to worry. Considering we got like 19 inches total of snow here last year,a dn the most on the ground at one time was like 4 inches..
I did just see that some company (I forgot the name and can check) is making a snow kit, which was basically 2 paddle tires on the rear and skinny ones in the front. I drove my all last winter, and the only thing I did was balloon the reciever. Didnt have any probs, besides freezing my nads to my leg.

ok, first off if u didn't quite catch that I was joking about the snow now....I just have to say WOW about you....
Also I was bored and was just wondering if I had to prepare anything or replace...
I never use forumn searches way.....too easy...(j/k)
4u...we got like 25 inches in 1 day last winter...dunno where u live in MN i"M southern...

anyways we're kind of straying off topic....unless that's all I need to do is waterproff some parts then everything is fine...
if so...everyone can show pics of white paper....Hey look there's snow!! right over by the other snow....This was takin after a huge snow storm in a field....so if u want some really good snow pics open up...paint....and stare....JUST MESSING WITH U ALL..everyone can now share their snow stories if that's all I need to do...
