[QUOTE="flyboy999, post: 150099, member: 2330"] Yeah those are issues I don't deal with here in Meadow Lake, SK. Everyone around here knows how to drive in the winter, or they might as well stay home. There are tons of people driving cars around here, so I figured, the Z06 is a car..........why not? One thing I didn't mention is the brakes. I know there is a lot of nonsense out there that the carbon ceramic brakes don't work well until they get warm......uh........NOT. My brakes are phenomenal in all conditions. They require no heating, and are very easily modulated on the ice/snow. One thing you cannot do, however, is set the parking brake. If you do, the pads freeze to the rotors, and getting them unstuck is a real pain. I learned that last winter. Now I just put it in park and walk away.....no problems. I thought the Viper's brakes were amazing......the Vette's brakes blow them away, and this is pretty consistent with all the motojournalist comments/testing. [/QUOTE]
