Snowmobile go 60+ on snow. they have tracks. And that same car with snow tire's will do 60+. (all though not in anything deeper than a foot) with the track's it looks like it can't get past 35 even on the road. imo its cool but a waste of 10k Just get a sled instead its faster.

That car was built for offroad capability not speed.

Ah I disagree its ken blocks rally car. That car was built for rallying and going fast. They just have track's on it at the moment.

Yea, but that's like saying that my 1998 V70 can go faster then a Hayabusa, since it has a bigger engine.....
You can't really compare the two. Find a video of another car going that fast, with that much traction, and in that much snow, but with normal tires. That is something you can compare.
The condition's in this vid are about the same as when ken's car is on the road. And imo he's going alot faster. but he doesn't have quite as much traction.

I don't think so. Looks about the same speed, yet he has NO traction in that vid. He is in a constant drift/power slide.
But, we can't really tell unless we find the numbers....looks can be deceiving.

Check into these a little more. Pretty impressive really. I'd love to climb telephone poles and highway banks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8v1doGeaUXg
