Lucky you. We just got around 6" of snow today - will still be a little longer before the Vette gets out of the garage.

Had my '99 TR FRC out for a drive for the first time in over a month & it made my day! These C5's are really "special"! p.s. I have a garage & indoor car cover but don't use the cover as I enjoy seeing the vette whenever I'm in the garage.

CNC is 8am - 10am officially. Those (including myself) up our way usually head out bout 7:45. Its the shopping plaza with Dunkin Donuts on route 202 in Yorktown. Im not sure what DD you're referring to.
