📃 Оригинальное описание:
The . Ice Race in Aspen - co-driven by Mobil 1 - must be the coolest car event on the planet. Where else could you hope to see the 1998 Porsche 911 GT1 that won Le Mans sliding around on snow alongside a genuine Police Mini? At this inaugural running of the US edition of the . Ice Race, Henry Catchpole soaks up the atmosphere, hitches a lift in a Group B Audi Sport Quattro S1 and drives three very different cars… and a piste basher!

The . Ice Race is the brainchild of Ferdi Porsche and in order to understand more about the event and the . International brand, Henry jumped into the passenger seat of Ferdi’s very rare 964 Carrera 4 Lightweight. One of just 20 cars ever produced it is effectively a 964 RS with manually adjustable 4WD. Needless to say, Ferdi drives it with gusto and no little skill.
First of the cars that Catchpole got to drive was the Corvette E-Ray. It proved to be one of the quickest cars around the snowy course, thanks to its clever hybrid all-wheel drive system that utilises an electric motor on the front axle in addition to the , naturally aspirated V8 powering the rear wheels. It also has heated seats and a heated steering wheel, which was nice - sideways, but snug.
Second on the driving list was Nismo’s Safari Z which was created as a working concept for the SEMA show in 2023. Its classic front-engined, rear-drive balance was perfect for some snow drifting and the spot lamps were perhaps only outdone by the Ford Escort WRC car that was also in attendance.
The final car that Henry Catchpole got behind the wheel of was the most extraordinary - Ryan Tuerck’s 1966 Toyota Stout pickup. This is no ordinary Stout, with a custom chassis, beautiful, exposed cantilever rear suspension and a turbocharged four-cylinder under the bonnet, delivering 600bhp. All the considerable steering lock was certainly put to good use!
As well as driving cars we also took time to interview some of the other drivers. We chatted to Tuerck, obviously, but also Le Mans winners Stéphane Ortelli and Emanuele Pirro, 911 guru Leh Keen and all round legend Jeff Zwart. Jo Scarbo was also quizzed about his brand new creation the SV Rover, which made its debut at the Ice Race in Aspen. An homage to Land Rovers, but with a mid-engined 1000bhp supercharged V8, 30-inches of Baja truck wheel travel and movable bodywork, it is quite the piece of kit.
