My STi + Swiss Snow =)

**$w!ft** · 29-01-2010, 07:30 PM

So,

While I was down in Switzerland for the christmas break I couldnt help but try and drift at any occasion with the STi.

The CSL is such a great car, but so is the STi in the snow.

I just couldnt get enough! Managed to snap off the front lip + other stuff though after going through some thick stuff

Ill get some pics of the CSL up soon when it goes for a clean!

Who else has been gunning it in the snow?!

In the Summer:

Winter Snow Fun:

Every time there is snow I get out for training in parkings and roads !!!
I live in Zurich you see and we have snow quite oftenly.

I saw these training sessions but I am not sure the 290CHF is worth it for me.
Only this season I have something like... 8 hours of pure snow drifting and I quite good now.

Do you live in Switzerland ?

PS : this morning for example, we had snow, yesterday as well

Looks fun!

I'm in the Gstaad area for some parts of the year! Next time I go to Zurich ill let you know.

The price was worth it for me! I got to drive from 10 am to 5pm, on an airport covered with ice and snow. They had setup up some huge drifing "rings" and then you had a track layout aswell in the afternoon.

Driving on snow covered road is lots of fun too, but you cant go sideways for 200m-300m for a huge turn like I did that day haha.

Cool stuff.
I might try it next year.
Well, I have a car parking where I go which is HUGE and I make a track basically.
There are sections in the 'track' that I go sideways for 50-100 metres.
I will get an image later from google maps to show you my snow track.

When you are in CH, drop me a pm and we could meet in Zurich or somewhere else (ie. Bern).
