Looks fun. My son was there last weekend as a guest of the Lime Rock club, but did not take any video. He stuffed his Mini into a snow bank, which is about all he told me about it. From your video it looks like being in the snow bank happens often.

wow looks like a great video, didn't see that one! Also looks like they are running in the opposite direction. It was a blast!

Joe - yes one of the biggest issues is getting stuck in the snow banks. It stops the whole thing, tow truck has to come out, and really eats into others driving time. I believe they are offering us some sort of refund as it was a tremendous amount of stop and go, and for the cost was not worth it. Still a ton of fun!

Looks like one of those things that's fun to do, but not to watch lol

Like e-brake sliding your FWD car in a parking lot.

If I had my R32 still, I'd hit one of these up. Did some rally-x in my GC8 impreza and it was a blast. Doing it in a nice car must make it more stressful lol
