MP3 wins a snowcross!

[cjstringer]

Raced against 2 AWD turbo Eclipses, 3 Subarus (WRX, 2.5RS, and Imprezza wagon), a Mini, and 12 others this past sunday. Won my class (GS) and the entire event by 2 seconds+. This car is so much fun!
The Eclipses had snow tires, so did the Mini, and 2 of the Subys. (As did I) It was deep enough, and slow enough, we even had a Ford Explorer run. He ended up 9th of 19!
I'll try to post pics if anyone got any. There should be some good video also. We had 3 video cameras going.

way to go !

Around here, with the snow we get, I always have fun with this thing in the snow. She still handles really well, very flat and controllable. The tail end slides just enough to have fun with it.

To see you beat out a WRX.....COOL!

Sweet...The MP3 is a classic.

Stinger, you and your MP3 are definitely one entity! Good job son! I wonder how much more of a gap there would have been if you drove a Mazdaspeed? (laugh)

Braggart I already won a couple weeks before you .. although not the entire event just my class. I suppose real snow tires would have helped...

If you look at event 2, I got rocked because of lack of snows when driving on 3" snow and ice underneath.
