I'm Dying....

To Drive my car....

The weather is garbage, it's been snowing and raining and it's sitting in the garage screaming beat me....

I wish I lived down south...

Anyone else?

Snow Sucks! We have virtually none as it's been above zero (that's the freezing point for you imperialists). But I'm a little nervous about hard tires and lots of boost. I don't think I could hold myself back from pinning it.

[EDIT] I think I'm going to get the snow blower and J.D. out of the way and get the car back on the street.

I don't mind driving in the snow...it's the salt and sand tossed up from cars in front of me that has me park mine for most of the winter. Extra cold days are best, no spray from cars in front. Warm sunny days work to, I still don't have snow tires, but I have an extra set of rims.

How's that C2 in the snow?
