Well, for the rain get yourself a great set of tires that perform in wet conditions. On my 86 IROC and 98 Z-28 I had Pirelli P-Zero's. For the winter definately buy a set of Bridgstone Blizzacs of Michelin Alpin's. and throw some weight in the hatch area too. But if you have the 8 cylinder powered camaro you really shouldn't take it out in winters anyways, even though mine did awesomely in the snow. Pardon my mis-spellings,lol.

There is really mo way to prevent sliding on those conditions. The reason being that the rear end used in the camaros firebirds, and the like are made for going 0 to 60 mph in little time not for S-turns and truly not made for taking S-turns in wet conditions

There's really not much you can do to prevent sliding espeically in a rear wheel driven car because it has absolutely no weight Camaros arent built for snow (trust me on this one I live in a climate thats always 2 below zero from dec to feb) the best bet is to either park it for the winter and get a car that's winter ready or...find a good set of snow tires. but youre best opption is to park it just to avoid all the rock salt rusting teh side panels

Investing in a good set of tires is a good place to start. It makes all the difference in the world! Goodyear is my favorite. Study the ratings of the tire and what the intended purpose is. If you cant afford $60-$120 a piece for brand new tires,there used tire places. I've bought damn good like new 16" tires from a local auto recycler for $25 apiece-mounted and balanced. Its a thought.

Let off the clutch easier, smoother. Yes no quick moves! I had a terrible time with mine when I went up to Seattle!! The possy back end would swing around, hated it!! Could not climb those hills when it was raining, which it seamed to always rain :0(
Wish I still had that car....1979 Railey Sport, what five speed (going through gears in my head lol)
If a automatic I do not know, mine was not one...

Put sand bags in the trunk or something heavy enough to weigh it down. It helps tremendously. My brother-in-law had a Camaro to and that is what he did every winter.

Keep it in the garage for the winter and buy an SUV.
Seriously, I used to put some heavy loads in the trunk to help traction. Be sure the tires are inflated and good tread. Accelerate slowly but steadily to keep from rolling doughnuts in the street.

Buy a 4wd truck and a trailer. Put the camaro on the trailer. Drive the truck.

Snow tires. Drive slowly - do not step on the gas quickly or stop quickly.

Install 'snow & mud' tires. Or, Install 'Sander units', they spray sand on the road in an emergency.
