Driving the C5 Z
I have been away on work now for over a month and a half, yes that's how long I go at times away from my car
I can be having the worse day of my my life but the moment I get in the car start it up its all wiped away and a smile is from ear to ear .... How about any of you do you go long periods of time without driving your car
Or if your day has been terrible does the car clear your mind up ?

I bought my red 01'Z last March and I look for a reason to drive it every day. Just thinking about it helps me get through the monotony of work. The only thing is, I live just north of Seattle and its no good in the rain. We just had the best summer I can remember as far as dryness and it didn't hit me till recenently that I was gonna have to pretty much put it away till spring 
and that my friend, sucked.

I also travel a lot for work. Usually I'm gone 2-3 weeks at a time, but sometimes more like 5-6 weeks.
Whenever I get home, I always wash the corvette the next morning (weather permitting) and drive it every chance I get. I am always blasting the radio and smiling ear to ear.
Sometimes I have to pinch myself when I get home and look at my c5 sitting in the garage. I almost can't believe that I actually own one.

My car does have a lot of theraputic value - seems like all the day's problems just melt away when I get behind the wheel.
