THERE are few things more exhilarating than driving an Aston Martin.
But how about driving an Aston Martin – on ice?
Aston Martin On Ice returns to the authentic western town of Crested Butte in the heart of the Colorado Rocky Mountains next month (February) for a second season of adrenaline-fuelled thrills and luxurious living.
Providing drivers with the chance to try the brand’s sports cars in an environment far removed for their more usual roads, the three-day On Ice progamme is built around a ten-acre playing area.
Comprising a braking and cornering exercise loop, slalom, skid pad and full circuit, work on the bespoke Aston Martin track has already been under way for several weeks.
Under expert tuition, participants will test and hone their car control in a series of braking, cornering and handling exercises before further putting their skills to the test on a mile-long frozen road course.
“Combining extreme driving, in an extreme environment, with typically sumptuous Aston Martin luxury living, the 2015 On Ice activity is sure to be amongst the highlights of our year,” said President of Aston Martin The Americas, Julian Jenkins.
The ice driving event is one of a number of Aston Martin bespoke driving experiences that take place across the country each year.
