And for completion: a few days ago after snow has fallen i improvised and made a basic chassis protection to be able to run on snow without worrying too much about the electric components.

Basic chassis protection (quick and dirty made out of duct tape)


AKA City Block mounted on half offset rims


. Sorry no time for videotaping this testrun.
. Off course you would't expect much grip from a rubber tire when running on hard packed snow. And there was no grip ;-) Nonetheless it was fun too watch the snow roosters behind the car when accelerating, making speed passes over the bumps and powersliding.
. Half offset makes the car definitively too wide.
