The reason for the relative "weak" comment was that these ice racers are in an almost continious state of 2 and or 4 wheel drift from what I could see.

To give you an idea, at the end of the race, after splashing the course marshels with a tail wag, one car did what appeared to be an entirely intentional 360 and continued without losing much speed at all. Not a burn out, but I'm guessing a turn in, hand brake, counter stear and gas as approriate and clean no tail wag exit 360 degrees later all without losing much forward momentum.
