This year, Aston Martin hosted a retreat for owners in the Colorado Rockies, teaching performance ice driving and advanced low-traction handling skills. The company termed the inaugural event "hugely successful," so now there's a repeat. In early 2015, 10 acres of ice will be groomed for sideways Aston antics near Crested Butte.
On the menu: a braking/cornering exercise loop, a slalom course, skid pad, and a "full" race circuit. Instructors will move owners through the paces and up to the one-mile full circuit.
The event kicks off in February. No word on price, but expect to trade an amount of cash commensurate with the wallets of a typical Aston owner for the honor of joining the festivities.
Check out what this year's event was like: expect a similar program in February.
