That must've been fun playing in the snow!
It was a blast! The surface conditions made handling the S2000 a real tough job. There was a mixture of asphalt and ice in many of the corners, so if you weren't really, really careful in a corner, the rear end would lose grip and whip you around backwards instantly. RWD was at a distinct disadvantage compared to the FWD and AWD cars -- they could just put there foot to it in a corner, and any icy bits just caused a bit of wheelspin.

For giggles, I let a few of the better drivers try taking my car around the course. They all looped the car at least twice on each run. One AWD driver (a really good autocrosser) just shook his head and said that he had no idea how anyone could handle a RWD on ice.
