Going to go on first Quattro drive through snow...

I haven't had a chance to drive my car in the snow yet till today. The thing is I have Z rated tires on the car and not snow jobs.

Think I should still go for a whirl.

BE CAREFUL!!

Those Z rated tires tend to suck big time in snow. I don't want to read about you sliding your car against a curb.

Went back A-OK...

I went and you are right the Z-rated tires were pretty slippery. It was fun though I got to learn how my car handles in these conditions, so now I'm in the know.

Tracked Great through 6 inchs of snow up a slight grade. I am very happy with the performance. One more thing I enjoy about my Audi.
