Impreza on ice: drifting on a frozen pond

Watching the Subaru Impreza drift about on a frozen pond is awesome! You never know when the ice is going to break, but luckily for the driver it didn't. Using $70 worth of ice racing screws in all four tires, optimal use of Subaru's symmetrical all-wheel drive system was brought forth as the machine gracefully slid across the ice. Driving on ice is fun, but it is very dangerous. You should make sure the pond is frozen solid enough that your car won't fall through. The truth is that you can never tell when the ice is going to break, and the whole time you're out there it's a gamble.

What would happen should the Impreza fall through the ice? There's a good chance you'll drown, or be frozen to death via hypothermia. To me, this stunt is one of the craziest things I've ever seen. You guys are insane man! Who cares about jumping over the 70 degree bay water in a full blown rally car when there is folks in Maine who are taking $50 Subaru's sideways on frozen ponds. That is where the real Subaru spirit is! Sure the big events are fun, but stuff like this is what makes Subaru enthusiasts defined from Subaru fans. Fans watch, enthusiasts play!

    Hey Hey.. We might be a little insane, but what we didn't show was us measuring over two feet of ice! Plenty. Thanks for all the attention towards our video:)
