The cars are totally purpose built and cost about $250 000 USD to build. They use a 3.0L V6 engine originally from Peugeot, but it is prepared by Orecca. Producing approximately 300 hp in a 1800lbs package, these cars, skinned in carbon and Kevlar, use all wheel drive and all wheel steering mated to studded tires to keep grip in such slippery conditions. Every little detail is considered, and top cars even have wiper blades on the side windows to allow for better visibility while sliding. Using a sequential gearbox, the cars rip through gears very quickly, hitting redline almost instantaneously.

yeah, I suggested Andros Trophy type racing for LFS some years ago. Hasn't happened yet.

PLAYLIFE - I have just tried to do that - I took RB4, made a set for it to slide extremely - went to an Autocross track, overheated the tyres and had a BLAST - it could get life in LFS - cause it's fun!

Wasn't ice-racing allready in the demo years ago?

Wrong flag, Niko

+1 for Ice Racing, but surely WRC or JWRC cars would be better for the andros trophy illepall

+1 i wanna this..

I'd like a frozen lake track with snow in which you could plow your own track with the autocross editor

Yes! No wait, why not use a tractor or a snowplow for it! That could be fun

London today = 2 inches of snow so far, and still falling. If you want slippy driving, come visit

Not quite used to snow?

I'm having fun every time i take my car out for a spin, slippery cityconditions are mad fun, sliding trough plenty of corners.. but ofcourse, roads out of town are more fun, since there's less traffic..

I'm losing my Scottish hardiness to weather, since I've lived in England for almost 6 years and London for 2. I'm used to seeing much worse than this back at home, but I don't drive so can't really comment on these conditions

My mom absolutely loves driving in snow. She sits watching the snow fall, desperate to get out there and mess around in it

nihill how u get that track i WANT IT any chance of stiking it on the forum cos the video is great thanks

The snow caused some chaos this february in London, and till this day I look out and see the remains of my snow man, only about an 8 inch pile remains.
