Can't wait until spring
I haven't had the Vette out for almost 2 months now and it's killing me. I was tempted to take it out today it was a very nice day, a chilly 26 but my street is covered in ice but once you get out of my neighborhood it's ok. They don't seem to get around to plowing my street so all the snow turns to ice from all the cars driving over it. It's going to be a little warmer later this week, low 30's so I might take it for a little spin as long as the streets are dry. I long for those long summer days cursing around with the top off.

Take it out when the streets thaw. These cars love the dense cold air. It will run like a bat outta . . . . . . . . . well, enjoy!

I know how you feel - the weather here has been pretty lousy over the last month - certainly not good for taking a car like the C5 out on the road. Hope the weather turns better for you and you can go for a spin.

Bgreen, what part of E-town are you from? I grew up in Upton, went to East Hardin, and spent more hours than I can count hanging out at Freeman Lake and cruising up and down 31W.

I'm looking forward to spring too.The weather here has been
lousy.In the meantime I've been keeping busy with mods
so it makes the time pass quicker when the weather is
more agreeable.
