To make it easy:
SNOW & ICE: Less Throttle - Slow is good.
MUD: More Throttle to keep the mud from turning the tires into
"Slicks" (Initial Momentum is required for this.)
DIRT & ROCKS: Depending on the type of terrain, slow and easy. Save the
terrain as well as your tires
SAND: Have at it man....Rooster Tails are fun as well. ;)
