Having an auto-x for the winter beaters might be fun.Do it on ice, a lake someplace?

Hell, I'm not waiting for no Spring! With this new setup, I can handle any snow with the Z!

Gingerman usually has a snow race that I've read about/seen pics. I'll bet that the Scoobys tend to do better than the Vettes though.

Check with Windy City BMW and Badger Bimmers - they usually run a couple of winter events (I seem to recall one on the ice at Twin Lakes that's pretty wild). And they let non-BMWs run, though you have to join the club (~$35/yr).
