TGR Ice track day at Finland (Winter 2025)

[Michael Knight]

Just as an initial idea.
Would forum members be interested in joining a larger GR ice track day in Kuusamo Finland region during winter 2025?

Track day could include
- option to use professional driving coaches (former wrc drivers, or factory instructors)
- option to rent a GR car for the event
- option to participate with your own car.

I created a poll to gather initial interest.
If we get enough interest it would help us in event planning for winter 2025.

I would be tempted to make the journey north for this! I forget how big Finland is and how far north that is! As a Brit living in the Baltics for the last 8 years my ice driving has got way better than it was, but anything to improve it is always a bonus!

yes with own car its bit of a stretch as driving from Helsinki to Kuusamo takes a full day. Little bit easier option is to take car train to Oulu and drive few hours from Oulu to Kuusamo. With rental car arrival is much easier as you can fly directly to Kuusamo.

Car train sounds favourable! Never knew you guys had those until now.

Hmm not much initial interest..
Too poor instructors, cars, or bad location? Or is it too distant idea with too little information?
