I can do it for free anyday during half the year hehe

It's fun for a while, then it just gets annoying, but for someone not used to it, you'll have a blast.

Yes we dont get enough snow/Ice here, but the lake is huge there and I can make my mistakes without crashing into a wall/tree/fence etc, as the snow banks there are said to be soft.
Cant wait now

They did a feature on it in PPC a year or two ago, if there is the wrong kind of ice nobody bothers because even with studded tyres there is no grip at all.

Asked about that they have their own grader that mulches the top of the ice so they have grip.
Only thing they worry about is a strong thaw, but they have not had one in 9 years.
Rally Sweden WRC on while we there too
