Ferdi Porsche's F.A.T. Ice Race moved to Montana for 2026, and from all reports, it went well. Last year’s US debut of the event, long held in Europe, faced some challenges due to lack of snow and lack of enough cool cars. That was in Aspen. Those challenges were overcome this year in Big Sky with more snow, while the new digs at Moonlight Basin resort seemed to make for an improved event. It boasted an increased corporate presence this year, about which organizers seemed pleased. “More than a race, FAT Ice Race has evolved into a cultural platform where global brands and creative leaders converge,” organizers said. “This year’s collaborators included Porsche Cars North America, Bentley, Nike’s All Conditions Gear (ACG), Mobil 1, Red Bull, Rivian and Nissan, each debuting custom vehicles, immersive installations and exclusive product releases.”The scene centered around a snow-covered semi-ovoid course scraped out of ice and snow with banks to catch anyone who ran out of talent. Around all that was socializing and furry coats. As one Instagrammer bleeted, “It’s a party where there just happens to be a race!”Among the cars seen on the track were: a Ferrari Enzo, RUF CTR Yellowbird, Audi Ur-quattro, Ford Bronco RTR El Bandito driven by King of the Hammers racer Loren Healy, Jeff Zwart in a 2013 Porsche 911 GT3, Patrick Long in a 992 GT3 Turbo, and three-time Formula Drift champ Chris Forsberg piloting a 2WD 1990 Nissan Patrol.Ford Escort RS CosworthFosberg's 2WD 1990 Nissan PatrolFosberg's 2WD 1990 Nissan Patrol2025 Ford Bronco RTRDriven by Loren HealyA Brace of BentleyBentley SupersportsBentley says this was the very car featured in its recent Supersports: FULL SEND film, which was driven at speeds of up to 100 mph around the Bentley campus in Crewe, England by Travis Pastrana. Last weekend it was professional racing driver Lia Block renewing her relationship with Bentley after previously showcasing her considerable skills behind the wheel of a Flying Spur in the ‘Spur of the Moment’ film of 2024. Block took to the ice on both days of the event, with the only modification to the car since FULL SEND being the fitment of 2.5 mm studs to the tyres.
