Me and some friends have been driving on a frozen lake today, thought id share some pics

The track is approx 5km long and at one place you can reach nearly 200km/h.
The rest of the track is long curves at 3rd to 5th gear.

The car is a rusty old ´77 w123 benz fitted with rallye tires and a OM606 superturbo engine

Nice pics. Damn youre located at sweden, not in finland.

Lots of fun!

Watch out for weak ice later on. High speed on ice requires stonger ice
than low speed.

When car moves, it generates a wave to ice. There is a specific speed which
causes resonance or something similar to ice causing ice to bend.
This may break it, even though ice is thick and safe on lower speeds.

I know about this problem but this ice is about 50-60cm thick so it should be ok
