LOL well ive been circuit racing in the snow before but never drag racing....maybe they should have taken a pointer off the scandinavians and had snowmobile drag racing!

Well, some german (public)racers think it is way too much time
between October and April, so for the 5th year there has been
the "Xmas Race" on the airfield of Kindel, Eisenach,
home of the "German Race Wars", 26th of December.
Although they could not cope with the Ohio snowstorm,
but at temps around zero C the race was still funny for contestants and spectators :



For more, including the girls & boy in the pool , look here :

Couldn't do it here.
Health & Safety would close it all down before it started.
Shame though, I wonder if you can get snow chains for 31 x 18.5's?

[cougarracing]
