Detroit Shooter is infamous around these parts
I think I am going to lose my mind

I have a beautiful 911S trapped in the garage. I may lose my mind. I have 1300 miles on her. To make it worse I am a full blown golf junkie! The only thing saving me is that I have a net setup and launch monitor at work. Winter must end!

I am going south next week and will be playing a couple rounds next week woo hoo!

Bill

Shooter,
It was a nice 79 degrees today in Tampa, FL. Evening thunderstorms have my 997C2S tucked in the garage and the sand trap on 7 (the hole I live on) full of water. Tomorrow is a new day and, if I were you I would book an auto train ticket into Sanford, FL, pack your clubs and enjoy the ride south to Golfers paradise. If you lose your mind I hope you find it. Keep your ***** in the short grass! GB

Join the club; mine is sleeping in the garage with 500 miles on the clock.

What really bugs me is the way the salt is destroying the roads. It's going to be a living pothole hell this spring.

Mine is in the garage with 600 miles on the odometer. Haven't driven her since early November. There is sand on our roads, which makes me cringe. Probably won't be swept up until late March, if I'm lucky.

Problem is the auto train goes only as far as the outskirts of Washington DC. He still has to get there.
Once he's there, then he can drive year round. Our big problem in Florida is all this damn sunshine! It's enough to give you skin cancer.

Maybe someone should invent something that would allow people to use their cars in the winter? Some sort of special tire perhaps?

I'm about to be in the same boat, picking mine up Saturday, weather permitting, then likely very sporadic driving for a month or two.

Feel free to laugh, but indoor go karts are great when the weather outside sucks. They corner like they're on rails and are a cheap adrenaline rush. If you have buddies that are in the same boat it makes it even more fun. This may help keep all your marbles intact. http://www.kart2kart.com/

I finally got a chance to bust my car out of impound yesterday for a drive. I was going crazy. It did accumulate a fair amount of road salt however. It is supposed to be near 50F tomorrow, so I'll have to find some time to wash it, especially the undercarriage.

I truly can't wait to get the summer tires back on the car.
