It boggles my mind to see cup cars on dirt roads and in the snow...

I would be interested to see how a well prepared C4 (with Blizzaks) would fare in those conditions against the more powerful, but lacking traction GT3.

Well to be 100% accurate it was the 964 based C4 that was based on the 959 not our 996 cars. When I say based it was the AWD drivetrain.]

Oh, and yeah these videos rock!

That in-car is good. Jammin' it into 1st on the hairpins, and then waving at the crowd.

I watched a couple sections of the Monte Carlo many years ago in Germany, fun stuff.
