Drifting in a winter wonderland
The Bluenose Autosport Club held an AutoCross today on Jack’s Pond in Wittenburg. Some folks were a little leery of the ice depth but a quick test drill showed well over 15 inches of ice which was more than enough for the cars. It was well attended with some folks coming out just for this event who used to ice race on this lake in the early 90s. I can’t imagine sliding around out there door to door with 20 other cars. I can see why people bought beaters for that exercise.
I took almost 600 pictures for the day, a lot of them were throwaways though. Exposure is always a challenge shooting against white snow. I started off with some pretty poor settings but improved them later in the day which resulted in more keepers. Unfortunately by that time people had realized that the best way to get around the course was to slow down so the only flashy drifting was coming from the showboaters.
