Hmm, I just picked up an '05 Allroad, so maybe I'll have to make a little road trip.

I go every year, this one will be no different.

Not sure what I'm driving in this time, might be my '91 miata, might be getting a ride in my friends '99 2.5RS.

Throw on some snow tires and go for it. They have a 2 wheel drive class just for you....

------------------

On the other hand, as long as the temps stay cold our local club is going to be doing some ice racing around that time too. Basically, this is an autocross course set up on a lake, and tends to be more snow than ice. Haven't made it to one yet myself, but I've heard some great reviews on it.

Here is their website (no information posted yet, but should be soon): http://furrin.org

January 29/30—Tentative Ice Racing at Turk Lake, weather permitting.
February 5/6—Tentative Ice Racing at Turk Lake, weather permitting.


Turk Lake is just North of Greenville Michigan.... I think the entry fee is something like 15 bucks.

With the dates so close together, I'll either spend a lot of money to go up North for a few days, or stay cheap and actually do some racing locally. Now that I think about it, that sounds like a pretty easy choice. Especially when I start thinking about getting accommodations up North at the big rally. Hmmm.....
