:lol: if it's that bad Mick you can co-drive my car (just replace the class with csp) with my mismatched steelies and snowtires. Car does great in the snow with these even with the open diff trying to complicate things.

Didn't St. John set that precedent long ago, H-stock?

Truck class sounds good to me. The Ford really likes deep snow. Do we have to tow the cars on the trailer during our run?

Just change your tire spray bottle to a hot water plus salt solution.

Can you put studs in R comps?

Hey Ray! Winter Liquigrip? Traction towels to melt the snow?

The R&D department has been working on that all winter. Anybody could just heat up the water from the red ocean. We are looking at a way to use cold fusion (the colder the better) to activate the rubber nanoparticles in the solution to interact directly with the crystalline structure of the snow and ice to produce studly grip from a slick tire.

^ Sad thing is I've heard car wax, oil, and other commercials that sound just like that :wink:

All new revenue source for BRR-for sale at all events. Depending on what R&D determines is the optimal "mix" for the lot & ambient temperatures, the proper competition spray will be manufactured and available for each event. New product announced just this evening. Icicle of Doom Liquigrip. Made from only the purest driven snow as it melts and refreezes. The thawing and freezing process enhances the percolation of the nanoparticles in the manufacturing process. Hopefully the manufacturing facility and its associated plumbing and boilers will not be mistaken for a still or a meth lab.

additionally, special container and dispensing nozzles will be available once production gets fully underway of the solution. these will be required to be purchased and then inspected upon every refill for the low price of an arm for the bottle and a leg for the inspection..... wait.. thats the taxes...
