this is my 2nd year driving standard and my first time driving stick on snow, any tips on how to drive an integra 5pd on snow/ice? today we had a shitty day on the roads and I had a bit of trouble on the roads specially whith the michellin 14' snow tires

 

smooth transitions from gas to brake, from left to right

shift at lower rpm

weight transfer is your enemy

 

Engine brake to slow down.

From a stop, start in 2nd gear to avoid spinning out.

Give yourself lots of room to brake.

Take advantage of the ABS. Meaning don't pump the brakes, let the ABS do the work.

Can't think of much others from my few years of driving in the snow experience.

 

-Don't slam the gas
-Don't slam the brakes
-Take it nice and slow

And everything else that they allready said. Just use your head and you should do ok.

 

-dont speed
-dont brake hard
-dont corner hard

taking it easy is the key.

 

Hit 40 or 50mph, cut the the wheel going into a turn, pull e-brake, counter steer :D

Haha JK man, take it VERY slow in the snow. If there's significant accumulation, stay around 20-30mph, and be very caucious becuase people don't know how to drive!!!!!!!!

Do the speed limit, or even like 20 if its 25...It wont hurt, stupid people always drive way too fast for conditions.

 

Also, slow down and give yourself a lot of room.

 

my car is an rs and has no abs , isnt' it bad for the tranny to start in 2nd gear?
