[Silly Little Cars] Silly_little_cars Digest, Vol 109, Issue 9

Tue Sep 6 10:08:28 PDT 2016

Of the 2 choices, a GO-4 makes better sense from a traction point of view.
I dont think either is a good choice in snow or ice as the front wheel
rides in an un-disturbed area of pavement,
and you/re liable to have no steering at some point.
Warning: this 'advice' is from someone in So. Calif.
