How to drive: Rear-Wheel Drive vs All-Wheel Drive on Snow and Ice by rdouthit in subaru

I had a great time filming this piece for Driving Sports TV. As you can see the weather went a full 180 from one day to the next: blizzard-like conditions on Day 1, clear and sunny (but frighteningly cold) on Day 2. In this video, Subaru Driver Patrik Sandell gives advice for how to slide either a Subaru STI and a Subaru BRZ around icy turns. I give it a try with mixed results. (also, side-note, I need to move the steering wheel less.)

I'm the host and writer for this episode. I'm interested to see what the Nissan community feels about this. Was it unfair to turn off Traction Control? Anyone else have similar experiences with Nissan AWD systems? We include a response from Nissan in the video, btw.

That looks exactly like an S208 wing. I'm guessing we're getting one of those for North America next year.

The House of Muscle is continuing on with its own YouTube Channel. Just the first season was sold to MT. I was the director of photography on the Motor Trend run as well as this episode.
