Driving two kinds of cars, in sub-zero temperatures, over a frozen field in Austria, isn’t foolhardy. It’s one for the bucket list

Sub-zero temperatures are not what us tropical folks are used to, but for what I was about to do in the Austrian Tyrol, it couldn’t be been any warmer. Or more breathtaking. On a frozen field surrounded by rugged Alpine mountains, I was all set to drive a pair of Audis on ice. Hence -7 degrees that day was just fine to keep the ice from melting.
