The Snow Tour

Updated 17 Oct 2023

The Snow Tour in 2017 and the wild supercars in Copenhagen!

Team Galag (a team from Saudi Arabia), best known from Gumball 3000, is famous for showing up at supercar events with unique vehicles.
So of course they didn't disappoint during The Snow Tour 2017, a mini event they created themselves as a warm-up before things get serious with, among others, Gumball 3000. The Snow Tour 2017 went from Bella Sky Hotel in Copenhagen up to a lake in northern Sweden. Black Batmobile with wide angular wheel arches and four exhaust pipes drives along a wet road. Just check out those fantastic rims...!! Close-up of a wheel centre with a black bat logo in the middle of the silver spokes. And when it's cold outside in February, what's better than driving from Bella Sky Hotel in Copenhagen up to northern Sweden, to drive around on a frozen lake? Close-up of a brass-coloured console in a car with four red toggle switches and a gear lever. Wonder what these buttons could be used for? Maybe clearing chunks of ice later on the trip? Thick white smoke pours from the exhaust of a black car on a wet street while people stand behind. The Batman car had a Lamborghini engine, which you could clearly hear when he floored the throttle. Black Batmobile from the Batman films seen from behind on a wet street, surrounded by spectators in winter clothes. The exhaust on the Batman car must have been at least 20 inches...!! A film with the Batman car: When Denmark suddenly gets a visit from international "celebrities" as well as gorgeous supercars, it naturally attracted attention from carspotters and fans of Swedish Jon Olsson. And this was despite the wet and chilly weather, which says a lot about their "popularity". Jon Olsson was of course not "boring" either, and showed up in the truly unique Praga R1R, which looked more than anything like a car that had escaped from a racetrack! It must be super fun to drive..! Blue Praga R1 race car with an open cockpit stands in front of a large crowd on a winter's day. It should be mentioned, though, that the car did not have heating installed. We assume the reason is that it would add too much weight to the already extremely lightweight supercar. This meant he froze a bit along the way as they got further north over the following days...

We made a short video with Jon Olsson and his Praga R1R supercar, which you can watch here: But for Team Galag, one wild supercar wasn't enough. So of course they had also brought along a tuned Mercedes AMG TG3 with a gigantic spoiler on it. The spoiler apparently wasn't entirely legal in every country, but they were good at having a reasonable chat with the local police, who luckily forgave them so they could continue their drive. Grey Mercedes-AMG GT with its headlights on rolls slowly across a wet square while spectators film it from both sides. Light grey Mercedes-AMG GT with an oversized rear wing parked on wet tarmac among ordinary cars. Here's a short film with the Mercedes: There was also a gorgeous yellow Porsche 911 SM, which had been given an engine from a Porsche Cayman GT4, so it sounded absolutely wild! Also, check out the three exhausts! Yellow restomod Porsche 911 waits in a queue of cars on a wet car park while spectators in winter clothes stand around. We've also made a film where you can see all the supercars:
