In addition to the Kyosho Blizzard, what other vehicles does anyone know of that will run on/in snow? Electric or nitro.

Most nitro trucks (NOT cars) can be run on snow as long as the electronics are protected. Electric trucks should not be run in snow.

I run mine in all weather, never ruined anything. They are all electric too. Just keep them protected.

Clodbusters run excellent in deep snow.

The wide tires let them "float" over the deep stuff.

I ran my elec. Rustler in snow and fried part of my XL-1 ESC. I fried the Reverse. It still goes forward but no reverse

I know of a very small company (I think is out of business) that makes snow conversions for the B3 and T3 it makes it so there are skis up front and in the rear it comes with a secial bolt to mount 2 tires on each axle. It was pretty cool and from what I hear it worked good too!
