There is A.M.E.C., which also does some winter driving events, they are actual racing events. Never got hooked up with them but poke around their website and see what they have to offer. [http://www.icerace.com/](http://www.icerace.com/) The nice thing about doing an organized ice event is that they thoroughly test the ice thickness. It is a bit un nerving when you are standing there and you hear the ice start to crack and creak. But, I was told that means new ice is being formed, pushing the old ice up, which is making it stronger. Still-when an F350 truck goes by to pull someone out and it sounds like it is driving over dinner plates, it makes your butt pucker a bit. ---

Krants, ice racing threads from the past 2 years was one of the main reasons I got back into an Audi, thanks for helping me learn all the quirks of the 2.7, really enjoy spending my weekend wrenching on it. ---

LOL Got pulled over last night on Main St. infront of Samuals. Head light out. WTF. Got out of it easy and got it fixed today. Took the car into Goodyear on Transit near Main St. and got an alignment which was also needed and not done by the Dealer. I am getting that paid for by the dealer, but while in the parking lot at Goodyear, they had to jump start it due to a dead battery…WTF!!! lol Not sure if they will take care of that, but 1 week later… I think out of respect and to give a good name, these guys should do something about it. New alignment, new head light bulb, and new battery = 1 week of owning the car. haha YES! Minor things I know. ---

Finally can put down in my book that I flipped a car. I was driving home last night from the ski resort and hit a patch of ice. The car got side ways and whipped back and went the opposite way. I ended up hitting a ditch sideways. The car flipped, not sure how many times, think just flipped over. (really happened so fast) I was doing 60 when it happened. here is what I got to show for it besides a bad neck now. ![http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e96/boarding087/DSC_0128-2.jpg](http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e96/boarding087/DSC_0128-2.jpg) ![http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e96/boarding087/DSC_0128.jpg](http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e96/boarding087/DSC_0128.jpg) ![http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e96/boarding087/DSC_0127.jpg](http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e96/boarding087/DSC_0127.jpg) ---
