Frs vs wrx......on a lake. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Just a video by another instructor in a wrx taken while we were prerunning an ice course. There's no timing or anything so this was just fun.
So no comments about how far from the cones I was. Lol

How do you decide when and when not to drive on a lake..... I'd be to freaked out.

Pretty sure you basically walk out a ways and take a sample of the ice to test the thickness. Over a certain thickness and you're good to go. But I don't live somewhere with frozen lakes handy so that's just my best guess.

I think recent weather conditions would come into play as well. If it's been -10 for two months I think it's more likely to be safe than if it's been bouncing around between 20 and 40 F and freezing/melting a bunch.

That looks like so much fun.

What tires are you on?

That's the correct answer but I much prefer husker's answer.
