Sure ya can! You just haven't driven the right cars. My dad had an old 4-door escort with studs that I drove around long after the snow was gone. That car was the most fun car I've ever driven. On our school's gravel parking lot I could make it do Rockford's easy, pavement was a little tougher but still not too hard. Best handling stock car I've ever driven. I could do good ones in my Olds too, but only on snow.
