Of course, but that would be way too blatant.

Interesting thought, but I don't think they would use studs in the video. They have been outlawed in too many places, at least in the U.S. Besides, with studs, some of the spinning tires we saw wouldn't be as likely to spin. They would either grip or just bog down from lack of power.
