I was on an IFR flight to FAR flying freight on board. Conditions at FAR was IMC with ATIS reporting ½ mile visibility and 200 overcast with fog. The Tower reported 4;400 RVR when I was cleared to land on Runway 36. I saw the runway at minimums and landed safely. While taxing on the runway the Tower requested a breaking action report and cleared me to exit right onto Charlie. I reported the breaking action as fair to good; but upon reaching Charlie and starting my right turn the plane started to slide past the taxiway. I noticed that I had gone too far past the taxiway to continue a right turn onto it and applied left break and differential power to make a tight left turn that allowed me to get on Taxiway Charlie. I was so relieved that I did not go off the runway that I failed to inform the Tower. I thought I was taxiing at a safe speed but failed to take into account that the edge of the runway might be slicker than the center of the runway. There was no other plane waiting to takeoff at the time or on approach to the runway.
A pilot reported that after landing on FAR Runway 36 he was instructed to exit right on Taxiway C but because of ice slid past Charlie and made a tight left turn back to exit on C but did not notify the Tower of the incursion.
