Went Racing today - But the R stayed at home!
I went ice racing today for the first time! The event was held on lake Sinnissippi here in Wisconsin.
http://www.w-a-g.org/events/ice/2002/info.htm
Since my R is still wearing summer Pzero tires it would have been useless on the ice so I needed an alternate vehicle. I snagged the folks Audi Allroad - they were conveniently out of town. The organized racing was fun but most of us had a better time just messing around in the middle of the lake doing our own thing. Once I removed the fuses for the ABS and ESP things got a bit more interesting, as seen below.

It looks fun, but I would never do that to any car of mine... unless it's a complete beater.
Yeah, I wish I hadn't of had to drive the R for the one winter, but hey, I had tons of fun with it!
