VIDEO: Supercars On ICE! See NEW And OLD Go Around This Frozen Lake At The St. Moritz

This is one of my favorite videos I've come across in some time. According to the individual who published this ciip, an all-new auto event has sprung up in Switzerland.

Dubbed "The International Concours of Elegance St. Moritz," it is not your ordinary concours. That's because it takes place in the winter and on a frozen lake.

And anyone that knows the owner of serious metal knows, it's tough to get them out on a rainy day let alone a snow-covered one. But, boy, did they come out in force.

Vintage and all-new supercar owners showed up to display their wares and also have them lap the makeshift track. It's not every day you get to see a straight piped Ferrari F50, an early Bugatti and a Group B Lancia drift around a corner.

Check out the clip below to see what I mean.



Yesterday I was in Sankt Moritz, in Switzerland, for the very first ever "The I.C.E. – The International Concours of Elegance St. Moritz" event, which aims to be a static and dynamic gathering of vintage, classic and racing cars. Organizers, participants and public were enthusiastic for this first "test event", but it aims to be bigger and better in the next years. The location was the frozen lake in front of St. Moritz.

I was quite impressed by the quality of cars there, such as he ex-Shah's Lamborghini Miura SVJ, a Ferrari 750 Monza, a Lancia 037 Stradale, three Stratos, a Delta S4 Gr. B and a Delta HF Martini 5. Even three Pagani Huayra were at the event (including a Dinastia and the Futura), but what impressed me the most was the sound of that Ferrari F50 with straight pipes.

Enjoy the video!

I'd bring my vintage rally car without a thought. But I think I would leave my Muria and other impossible to replace exotics (F40???) at home until the snow is gone. I would understand the joy people have in seeing my car, but horses for courses.

The people who have cars like this have so much money that losing a Ferrari F40 or a Miura would be an "Oh well..." moment.

It's also interesting if you get into their inner circle and watch how they see the world and treat people for whom money is a consideration.

I don't travel in those circles ... and yes, money is a consideration for me. Most of the cars I read about leave me with "Wanna Be" status ... LOL !!!

I'm not in that echelon either, but I did have the opportunity to get to know four people who had more money that God himself and how they saw the world was an eye opener to me to came from the wrong side of the train tracks. I am fortunate enough to make good money and to have disposable income left over, but cars aren't expendable to me.
