I would really like to see a pic of a "snowy" burnout!
Here is my old 87:

I only backed her out of the garage for the pic and put it right back.

That little bit of snow?
Just go slow and it's ok, unless those are slicks.

Needless to say I didn't move it until the snow melted.

If you look close, you can see my '96 peeking out.
No snow now, but this is what it looked like a couple weeks ago.

Winter?? Ha! Well its a little chilly in north FL today, about 60*. Usually its a bit warmer on Christmas. Our "winter" is still a few weeks out when we get about 2 weeks worth of cold weather at the end of January/ first of Feb. Soon enough it will be 90+ and I will be envious of you Yankee type folks. Gotta get my A/C fixed!

Keep warm yall!

Sorry guys, just couldn't resist showing you what winter is like in the Phoenix area. High today is supposed to be 71.

Here is mine, parked at my last job/office. 10,000' elevation. Notice the tracks behind it. That's how I got back to my office.

At least 18" so far this December, and this is as far as the Z will go out in it

Here is a 2 year old picture of my car after a small dusting... I really like the contrast of fresh powder against a shiny black car

haaa

those are some cool (pun intended) pics!
to bad it never snows where i live, just gets slightly colder, advantages of living in Cal, right plrx

i could send you a sunny pic and let you know that it was only 65 degrees instead of 80
i do have to check the air in my tires when it gets cold so i suffer in the winter too
i cant imagine trying to drive in the snow, my tires specifically state to not use below freezing (GS-D3)(eagle goodyears)

I like living in a place with all types of weather. Heat gets boring, we look forward to the changes. And we're snowed in about as often as you guys have to hide from storms.
Corvettes are cars, they won't melt or freeze solid.
Winter rocks
