Narrower tires are superior in the snow, all the download is on a smaller contact patch. Wide tires will act like skis in the snow, not what you want.

Intercooler: Buschur Racing
Tires: 205/60/15 Blizzak WS-50. Went with the 15's strictly for snow performance. Just got back from playing in the foot of snow that we just got and even in deep snow where I should be high centering, the skinny, tall tires I have on there make a huge difference as compared to 17" snows, which IMO are a waste of money. Slight change in handling, but not as much as you'd think. I'd rather have the grip when I really need it than slide around when I don't have to.
Car's very very dirty, don't accuse me of having a clean car again, or it's your @$$.
Helmets weren't required because it was such a low speed event. Never got the car out of second gear. They kept it technical so you could hone your skills and go fast on the way home, if you so desire.
