gregg 3 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 Anyone else experience really slippy greasy roads this evening. Driving home the back end was really twitchy (when I wasn't trying!). Driving to Macclesfield from Knutsford if it makes a difference. Just noticeable more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Duff 79 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 Yes! Worst (or should that be best?!) I've ever known for dry non-icy roads when driving to meetings today around Preston/Blackpool/Blackburn. Lots of wheel spin when moving off from junctions/lights (with traction control on) and very tail happy around corners (smacked rear near side wheel into a kerb when not meaning to, will have a look at the likely rim scuff tomorrow). Good fun in many ways (other then the likely rim scuff) but I can only assume that it's the result of lots of recent gritting over the past week but no rain to wash it away so the road surfaces are very loose?

KevinA 695 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 Very true, 70mph on a motorway roundabout in a Transit full four wheel drift !! Made me work hard for a moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Musketeer 25 Report post Posted February 10, 2015 I love it when the roads are a bit greasy. I noticed this on Sunday at the Essex minimeet. Going through the fast bends to Bradwell on Sea I experienced a couple of 4 wheel drifts. Just little ones, but fun all the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
