I think this may very well be the most absurd question ever asked on this forum. Actually, I can't decide if this is, or if the guy asking about a Nitrous system that is "ALWAYS" on.

Let's take a vote.

This sounds like a cool idea, i wish i had a spot to try that, u guys should form a grass racing league and all get some snow/ice tires. Anyways, does it tear up the grass? do they care? -Jon

I like your idea actually. Your problem has to be traction, maybe you need some ice studs or somethin? hehe

i got it!!! drive on a gravel road before racing so you get all kinds of rocks in the tire groves for the traction!!!!

the only thing I can really think that could help is a more agressive tire treat and maybe a tire pressure change

maybe lay down something where you launch from like lots of gravel (might get lots of rock chips tho) just to get some traction and get going. or maybe set up a drift course and pretend your in japan like fast and the furious tokoyo drift, minus all the hot asian girls
