I did the same thing on Sunday afternoon but it was only about 45 degrees so I couldn't safely go full throttle yet. Hopefully the next time the roads get clean here (we got a BUNCH of snow Monday) it'll also be well above 50 degrees.

While you guys have much much colder than us folks down south in Atlanta; we've been much colder than usual. Still too cold here to have any fun and packing up to head to caribbean with a group of your countrymen. :-)

I'm heading to SW Florida next week! Wish I was bringing my Corvette with me, but at least I know I'll see a few dozen of them down there! (and hopefully I'll see some pre production 2019 ZR1s again like my last trip there a few weeks ago)
