If you are smooth on the throttle, it will work good. Stopping is still bad though.

Ain't just the 2wd that have a hard time. We took 2 T-Maxx trucks out and they would barely move. Then again the snow was 10+ inches deep. Still fun though ain't it

That ain't even dirty yet. Here let me show you some snow. This was all under the body. You could still see the outline of the body when it was removed!
