Default Itching to drive my Z - Pics/Stories?!

I've been reading the 3rd gear pull thread - it's killing me...I bought my Z06 this month and it has sat since. I haven't even been able to drive it at all, and won't be able to, for a number of months. I have already ordered parts for it, of which are sitting in a box, since it has been so cold.

Anyone want to share some action pictures or stories to keep me day dreaming?

Sorry you haven't got to ride. Had a nice afternoon Wed and drove the back roads out to the closed Nashville Super Speedway. Got to feel that 2nd and 3rd gear pull.

Speak of that 2nd/3rd gear pull. These tires are hard, I'm going to be sliding all over. Good way to get used to the car.

Yep...my car has fresh 335 Michelin PS2 on the rear and it is sooooo easy to get the tail out accelerating out of corners. You need to load your car up, head south and scratch that itch!

I drive mine, that is why I bought a low dollar high mileage car, the new car can sit until the weather gets nice meanwhile I get to enjoy my daily driver.

Bob...that's awesome. Wish I had the option, from a couple of different perspectives!
