Thanks for the input! After driving in the rain all day I may have to reexamine my power goals....or maybe find a cheap jeep to get through the winter..lol

With all the torque these cars have, it's just impossible to put down the power when the roads are wet. It's not until 4th gear that I can floor it in the rain. 1st gear feels like accelerating on ice :)

All last winter, It seemed impossable to get grip , even on dry days. It was'nt untill it started geting warm that the SS became fun again. This being said on the 1st day of fall.
