For running on snow check out the Electric Kyosho Blizzard. It is also available in Nitro version.

Yep, I've got both options, going to see which is better. I've got a summit and a brushless erevo (might just make it water proof with a plasti dip bath).

LOL, if you want some snow come visit us in Edmonton... the banks at the sides of my driveway (from shovelling) were over 6' high. The snow/ice build up on the road made it higher than my sidewalk.
