A method for controlling a prime mover of a vehicle traveling on a surface including loose particles includes the steps of determining a vehicle speed and a rotational speed of a vehicle wheel. Then comparing the vehicle speed to the rotational speed of the vehicle wheel and if the difference between the rotational speed of the vehicle wheel and the vehicle speed is greater than a threshold, then reducing the power provided to the wheel to maintain the difference between the rotational speed and the vehicle speed within the threshold.
