I cant race my porsche yet, how about some ice racing?

Bought a chevette for ice racing next season, $150, add a cage, a few bumper mods, new snow tires and off you go.
enjoy, talk about not being able to see, starts a bit slow, then some racing and crashes\flips, on the limits of traction

ice race season starts in 8 days, Ive got 2 cars , prosche build going way to slow. Being winter, you might get a kick out of the ice race video, lots of 'sliding' and 'bumping' give the video about 20 seconds into it to start the racing footage
here is the link >>

Ice racing wheel-to-wheel with studded tires on frozen lakes -- most fun I ever had on four wheels! Enjoy.

45 years ago studded tires were legal in NY for a few years. I had a buddy whose dad put them on his old Sabb. Between the studs and the chain saw engine, it was pretty intense on the highway. We pickup truck snowplowed a track on a local lake and really had a blast. The following weekend the Lake Association closed off access.

Hey Aftermath! Really cute video production, nicely done! ( I'm a guy, but I can say cute, can't I?)
Y'know I firmly believe that driving on ice and snow is the best way to get to know your vehicle dynamics at a safer speed. I can't drive on our winter roads without intentionally oversteering around corners and practising those wonderful flick and opposite lock rally turns. The principles are the same when you're on dry pavement, except now you have to go 100km/h to break loose and have to correct waayyy quicker.

PS: Doesn't your Tim Hortons spill when you get hit? Oh, Right... travel mug!!
