Well, we've already got races in the desert, night races will follow in the near future, so I suppose anything is possible!
Not that I expect for one minute speeds will be very high during this publicity stunt, however I wonder how secure these studs are and if they'll withstand speeds of 200MPH. An exiting stud would be a lethal weapon!
I doubt the speeds would reach 200MPH, I think they can go 100MPH at most on the ice. Go for it I say! Maybe this is what would take excitement back to Formula Snooze :up:
Mclaren drove their two-seater in Lappland few years back, they didn't appear to go very fast then.
They should run a few races on a frozen lake, and force them to run one of the stints without studs ;)
As JV said many years ago, if the cars can move, there is always the chance of racing :D
So BMW wanted it, I wonder who paid.......... :D
According to Al Gore and his hippie gang we might need snow tyres alredy for the day after tomorrow, so in F1 words that's the Malaysian GP, right? :p :
Hell yes. This stinks of a Finnish plot. Finally Kimi will win something, cause he sure sucks as a driver and only demolishes cars and Ferrari only wanted him for his nice behavior.Quote:

Does anyone know what the world ice speed record is? Assuming there is such a thing.
