In low traction situations like snow & ice, lightweight cars reign supreme. Heavier cars tend to just slide off track.

Sweet! Reminds me of 'work' at the winter driving school in Steamboat Springs. Looked like a really nice facility...but not much elevation change.

One of the other guys at the school has a STi, so I might try to get some Evo vs. STi battles caught on tape.

Nice to see, but it looks like a fix. The GTR was just following the WRX without trying to pass it. There were at least two chances to get by the WRX as it swung wide. Wish I could find a snow course like that...

this would be really hilarious if it was something like "Viper vs Mustang vs Corvette on snow..". Im pretty sure they would just give up after smashing their cars a couple of times, lol

honestly after owning both a STi & EVO I personally think that the STi handled a little bit better in the snow... I loved having the full lock on the DCCD, it was awesome in getting out of say a ditch or what have you!

don't worry, still love the evo though!
