hmmm... I'm debating whether or not to put the snow tires on!
I always drag my feet to put the snow tires on... but it's getting colder!! 
That and we're driving to missoula next week to visit my wife's family for thanksgiving!
*sigh* I better make an appointment to get them put on.
One fun thing about the snow tires is that you can get pretty good wheels spin on hard launches

Actually, I was referring to driving around on dry pavement in the normal weather
You can get some narsty wheels spin
in the snow or sub 32degree weather you'd have to be an IDIOT to drive around with summer tires. You'd have so much wheel spin that you would likely wreck the car!
Summer tires + snow/ice = asking to wreck your car

Unfortunately yes :( but they don't use Laser and I have a V1 :)
Last time I drove there (albeit in the summer) I spent a good portion of the drive at the 143 limiter
I averaged 93.x MPH from seattle to missoula INCLUDING all stops and slowing for known speed traps/big cities. hehe

hehe... yeah but I did that on purpose :)
and yes it was stupid, but I drove very carefully on the freeway (once we got into the snow that is)... Man that was a fun night!
Also, now that I have driven in the snow with them, I think it's safe for me to advise for people not to!
here's a pic from that night...
