Thanks Danny, I wish that ice will be strong enough this winter . We had to settle for rally cross track last winter. It meant slower speed in general and tighther lines. I didn't want to end up to rock-hard snow bank. The weather was very warm (+10 degrees) and track in bad condition in a couple of places. New tyres would be nice as they are from 2001 and cause excessive understeer. Sorry about fugly car .

Me learning 'controlling' my 4x4 in empty car park -

you have to go to my facebook to see my video - https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v...9758996&type=3

But Seriously if you wanna do it with your S2000 all you need is 2 cones and big empty car park in a wet/moist night, so you do have some grip but won't hurt your tyres. Try do figure of 8 like you do on MOD1 Bike test and try to get closer and closer to the cones when you are better. Just find an empty industrial estate carpark and you can do that all night long.
