Bridgestone Winter Driving School: Featuring the 86!

Just read this article today, announcing the season opening of the Bridgestone Winter Driving School in Steamboat Springs Colorado, and came across this:

Quote:
Bridgestone’s innovative Blizzak winter tires have been featured at the school for more than a decade. A broad range of 2017 model-year Toyota vehicles equipped with Bridgestone’s revolutionary Blizzak tires are standard equipment in the school’s safety and performance programs.

Four different 2017 Toyota models will be used for programs during the 2016/17 season. Models include the front-wheel drive Camry XSE; the all-wheel-drive RAV4 Platinum; the part-time 4WD 4Runner Trail; and the front-mid engine, rear-wheel drive 86 (one with automatic and two with manual transmissions)

They teach both every day driving up to full pro racing
Nice to see someone agree that the twins really can handle snow, and that they want to show people that.

Looks like some fun to be had over there, too bad I'm too far away to make a trip!

Just take a trip to central Wisconsin to do some ice rallyx with us! It'd be a hell of a lot closer and cheaper. haha I know they do it in Michigan too.

The school does look pretty cool though. Although if I was gonna do some winter driving in Colorado, I'd opt for this: https://www.aspenicekarting.com/#lets-getsideways
