Hey Guys,

Took my 99 V70 R wagon out on Newfound Lake, NH for an ice racing event that the BMWCCA sponsored.

Had a great time and did surprisingly well also, given that it was only my second time doing this.

Beat out a bunch of Subie WRX's and BMW's with studded snows with my regular snow tires. I was second in my class by 0.01 second....

Got 7 runs in on the competition course and a dozen or so runs on the practice course, where you could go a little faster....

The wagon performed flawlessly, although you can hear my upper spring seats clunking, got to get that taken care of..

I'm hooked...

Here is a link to pics and movies:

Nice job. Sounds like fun. Seems late in the year for going on the ice? How thick was it?

It was a great time. Ice is still 2' thick, and conditions were perfect.
