Those snow banks look like the Swiss Alps track on EA's Porsche Need for Speed....
Have you tried bouncing off them at 100mph...?

That's some serious snow! I'll be bring my SoCal 996 over to my new east coast home in May, and I still don't know whether I'll get a beater for next winter or just get a set of Blizzaks.

Just one vote, but I'd say drive it. I'm astonished at how capable and fun they are in the snow, and I firmly believe that a constantly-driven 911 is likely to be less trouble than an occasionally driven one anyway.

Get a beater to back you up on the bad winter days, enjoy the 996 on the good ones. I hate driving mine on bad weather, even just rain is all it takes for me to pass on it. Will admit I'm am a bit of a mental case when it comes to this kind of things.
Regardless, it is a good idea to have a plan B when needed.
