Niagara on the Lake (Canada) Santa Parade

The parade organizers limited us to 15 smarts.
Mostly 450s
We formed a wedge at the front and caused a lot of interest in the crowd.
Santa was moved to stand and wave when he saw us!
A sunny day but chilly.
Fun to do.

I have done 4 parades now with our smart car, and they just keep getting better every time. Keep up the good work!

This is the best use of the creep imaginable.
The 450's looked like they were having a tough time going so slow.
I just needed to ride the brake and hold my position easily.
