That picture reminds me of years ago, when I lived in NJ, driving my 1973 Opel GT in about 10" of snow. Lots of fun.

Wasn't snowing when I went to work, but this time of year anything can happen.
Made it home OK, but I am used to driving in the snow. Vette handled supprisingly well, better than I thought it would.
to everyone.

My first time behind the wheel of a C5 was in a storm like that after I had just bought my car driving it home from St.Paul Mn. to Madison Wi. 6 hours of white knuckled traction control - active handling enjoyment. It was a nightmare.
