i tried to do a 360. umm, my car cut off and my check engine light came on.
i reset it and got on my merry way.
btw: directional tires suck in the snow/slush.

Snow on snow is better than rubber on snow, which is why winter tires are designed to retain whatever they run though, whereas summer tires are designed to evacuate it... so flipping the tires might help, but you're still gonna have rubber that's rock hard at anything under 40 degrees.
I'm running Arctic Alpins on my CL and my WRX... no problems with traction. Just gotta avoid everybody else. I went tearing up some backroads in the WRX... I love AWD, 4 wheel drifting, and watching snow fly out of all the wheelwells.
