There's only one thing to do when the Nürburgring is covered in snow...

That place is dicey enough with damp patches in the shadows; I'd need several changes of underwear for driving on ice at the 'Ring.

That would be fun. (can you tell we don't have snow here?)

I wish they could make it snow on Summit Point's skid pad. What a great training tool.

Wait, you guys WANT snow? I nearly died when snow set in @ Yellowstone and I had to drive out of the national park in the '10 Vert. I had to disable AdvanceTrac/Stability Control to get the car moving at just 20mph.

Heck ya.. best seat time experience I've ever had was day one of my SCCA drivers school. It was raining, windy and 38°F on shitty old Kumho MX tires. I caught my car more that day than I ever would have had to in the dry.

I wouldnt try this on the street. Damn curbs are still there you just cant see em! :-D
