Hey Johnny; good to see you back on the forum. I hope everything as going as well as can be expected! They are calling for a high of 51 on Saturday for the next Frank-N-Lunch. If it is dry I may take it out for a spin!

As tempting as it will be with the 32 degree heat wave RC isnt coming out until the salt is washed away and all roads are dry. No slush splash!

We've got the whole winter's supply dumped in our area and it's like drivin' around on a salt mine! Good chance of rain and 50 degrees this Friday night...
Wash that crap away.

Big time C6 withdraw here. 
However, I am lucky and own a Trailblazer SS...
So its almost like having a Vette with 4 doors and AWD.
Also to welcome the coming spring, I just ordered a new set of wheels/tires from the tirerack (Luke is awesome) and had them shipped to HP Performance.
Regards

I just got my Z06 before Thanksgiving. Had it stored since around Christmas but I'm really getting anxious now. But I agree - we need lots of heavy rain to get that salt out of here.
Hey MyblackC6 - How do you like the Trailblazer SS? Those look nice!

I drove the Vette up to Kevin's this afternoon to get my GHL Bullets cat back put on. It sounds awesome. The Vette is pretty filthy now, so unless it's raining, I'll probably drive it to the Frank lunch on Saturday.
