Mine works at low speeds and RPMs in the snow, but if I drop the clutch on pavement, I do a one wheel wonder burnout. I'm going to try changing the fluid as soon as it warms up a bit. I was suprised it worked in the snow, but after going up my STEEP driveway with snow on it, looking back and seeing 2 snow peeled marks, I realize it works
