Default Sharks On Ice - a day at the lake

The local PCA folks organised a fun event for today but what the couldn't foretell was the weather.....one of the coldest, if not THE coldest day of this winter; -30c with -40c windchill.

Considering the weather it was a great turn out.....some sample pics:

The cars are real tough......sitting in them with the heater full blast isn't too bad

It was interesting to watch Carrera 4s spin out many times while the Cayman/Boxsters seemed well in control as were the couple of Beemers that showed up. That's not to say all the drivers were equally good/bad

Didn't see any Ferraris or Lambos?

Not just Canada. It's that way here in the US.

If you "find" a thin spot and go through, the recovery isn't a cheap endeavor.
All out of pocket.
