Default My first winter with a proper car! WOW

Well its getting that time of year, frost, ice and mega slippy roads. Its the first winter ive had a mega powerful car and my god. Talk about fun, All you need to do is put your foot down and boost it on a corner and its seriously sideways.

Private airfield near where i live + Ice + Scooby STI = Best fun of my life! LOL

The one here doesnt have a pot hole problem BUT it does have a huge amount of lose chippings and gravel, thats annoying i must admit.

Its got a go carting place at the far end to which is always fun.

I will take some video next time i go down with a load of cars having fun.

It would have to be quite mini, i recon if you had probably 6-7 cars you would get a little crowded pretty quickly.

Anyone know langer airfield? South Nottingham?
