    It was snowing, 30 cm of ice and snow all over the place, used summer tyres with 3 track days behind them...
    Perfect conditions to get out of the garage, feel the ASR struggle, toggle to sport mode, feel the ASR struggle less, drive a painful 20 meters...

    OK, maybe not the best drive of my life, but I was just dreaming of doing pics of Ze black Biste on ze snow.

    So here we are (and yes, as every parent thinks his own baby is the best-looking, I'm convinced these pics are GREAT :) ).

    Excellent pics and story Roel! Yes, the season is slowly starting again!
    I did the same thing last weekend. The 308 had been stored away for at least 3 months, fired it up saterday afternoon, let it run for some minutes, drove it to the gasstation to fill it up and check the tire-pressure and it was all ready to go! I did a 100 km trip to a Ferrari Club gathering saterday evening which went very smooth and full of pleasure. When I left at 2 o'clock at night the car was full of ice, I thought damn how the hell do I have to defrog this car??? Put the switches on max temp, the defrosters on and it was ready to go again. Believe me, but those cars are an absolute masterpiece....

    Hi Joren,
    nice to hear stories of other guys USING their Ferraris. Unfortunatly a lot of people only use them in dry and warm weather.
    Spoke to a guy last weekend who never drives out his car when the weatherman says there is a possibillity of 1% that there will fall a raindrop next 24 hours!! :(
    Only exception I make is SALT. No way to drive the car with salt on the roads.
    Ferrari's are made for driving, not for standing in a garage, museum or showroom.
