Ok I admit I was doing 78-79ish. Soon as I hit 80 I could feel the wheels start to slip, and I slowed to about 70 on curves.

But today I know two things, I have plenty front wheel spin, and plenty more rear wheel drive correction out of slippery turns. I used it not but 15 minutes ago and felt my rear wheels help push me along.

I am in no way saying that what is being recommended is wrong, in fact I put more stark in what Harvey says than almost anyone, but just going off the assumpting of spinning or not spinning wheels is very misleading.
