That is quite interesting and not an easy thing to do in a car with a turning radius of an passenger airplane.
I just wonder how they managed to install the skinny road car wheels on the center lock hub
of the Formula BMW. 
Did you notice? They pulled out of the garage with the OZ center lock wheels, then drove on some sort of modified street car wheels and snow tires. Then they pulled back in on the OZ Racing wheels.

What FUN!
Makes me miss the driving I did while living in Colorado for a couple of years.

Come on up to Idyllwild after the next storm - it's a blast. (Thats why I went for the C4S).

Yes that was done in several takes.
They had chase cars doing filming plus the helicopter? for some angles.
Looked like fun, but I am not so sure the driver in the open car was very warm
Some great driving though in the snow
