"In an emergency stop in a car with ABS, you should apply the brake pedal firmly and hold it while the ABS does all the work. You will feel a pulsing in the pedal that may be quite violent, but this is normal so don't let off the brake. "

You don't have an RS do you? RS = no ABS

I was splashed with slush that contained a rock over the weekend. My rear drivers side door has a nice door ding now in the bottom.

dang that is not cool. i've been trying to avoid driving my evo in the snow/slush for that reason (and also all the idiots who don't know how to drive in the snow)

Yup. Once again: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...8&postcount=14 {grin}

if you're serious about snow get the nokians. I've never heard anyone complain about them.

Honestly though, if you're stopping in snow on tires that aren't meant for it, you're ****ed already if you're pushing hard enough to turn on abs.

I do compression braking, and then i step on the brakes as if there was a raw egg between my foot and the pedal.

I have advans on my talon, and some wanli's on the galant and I have zero problem stopping either on ice, I just give myself extra distance and do everything with a lot of planning. It's no big deal.
