Bit of fun, one of the Nurb's instructors takes a Formula Nurburgring car around on the snow and ice, actually gets some impressive speed up in a few places ....

Reminds me of daily commuting to work in my Miata during Green Bay winters...Although the more interesting thing to me is the fact that they run center lock rims as standard, yet fitted passenger car 4 lug rims for the snow tires. I wonder is that something they just threw together on one car temporarily for activities like this, or do they maybe have a few of these made up for other specific purposes.

Well spotted, the car he starts and finishes in and the car that does the lap are different cars.
