During the recent deep freeze here in Detroit, the surface of Lake St. Clair froze solid enough that people, and their vehicles, have been driving out onto it like it’s a giant icy parking lot.
That included a Lamborghini Huracán, which was caught on video doing donuts and drifting on the frozen lake ice, drawing crowds of onlookers cheering on the high-end sports car’s antics.
While there’s no official statement explaining exactly why the driver chose to take an exotic car out onto the ice, the spectacle fits a familiar pattern: when Michigan lakes freeze hard, people bring cars, snowmobiles and dirt bikes onto the ice to ride and show off, and in this case, a pricey Lambo provided the entertainment.
Just remember: what looks cool on video can be very risky in practice, as ice thickness can vary dramatically and heavy cars can fall through if conditions change.
