    Rennteam Crew caught in snow

    This happens if our test crew is clever enough to drive through the Austrian/Italian mountains...

    Re: Rennteam Crew caught in snow

    So the decision was made to tow the cars out rather than risk driving in the snow?

    The smoking 996S is on ceramic brakes??? I only once got close to that... Also in mountain conditions.

    Re: Rennteam Crew caught in snow

    It's not a 996, it looks like a 993.

    What the pictures don't show: the towing truck got stuck too and had to stay together with the cars high up in the mountains over night.

    Re: Rennteam Crew caught in snow

    i guess the cayenne does have a point after all.

    I had actually meant to say 997. I was thinking of the "retro" look of the new 997 and didn't look closely. But yes of course, it is a 993 and not 996 or 997.

    You should have gone up to help Christian. Can you imagine a photo of your Cayenne pulling out the Porsches and tow truck? hahahahaha

    No. You can see the back of the car on the flatbed.

    No, it is much faster than a GT2.

    Re: Rennteam Crew caught in snow

    Great decision to take the truck.... better than to risk life and car!

    sorry guys....

    We're a bunch of open minded car enthusiasts, this is why we always have an opinion on almost every car.
    Yes, this is a Corvette and not a slow one.
    As I said before, there are minimum 1500 HP on these three cars.

    Re: Rennteam Crew caught in snow

    So who's Corvette is it - and where is RC's 997?

    And did you seriously take the tow truck because of the weather conditions...?
