The problem is that in the UK few people turn up with suitable tyres and most people don't have a clue about how to drive in changing snow conditions.

At the end of the day it's a clubman single venue event - the competitors are for the most part the sort of people that don't have the budget for snow tyres 'just in case'. We've been competing 13 years and that's the first time we haven't had a tyre that is at least workable (we've got wets and assorted compounds of cut slicks).
