Back on the road

After being more or less snowed in for about 2 months, and being generally not interested in driving her in well below freezing temperatures for a number of reasons. I was finally able to get the camaro out and drive her today. Even though all I did was drive to work this morning (there will be a subsequent drive home as well), there is still, even after nearly 3 years, something intoxicating about the feel of all that power. The roar of the exhaust, the feel of the engine trying to twist in the frame, and the acceleration, you can't forget the acceleration. I can't wait for spring to get here.

No Go In the Snow

Unfortunately this January saw the east coast hit with weekly storms, ranging from dropping a few inches of snow on us, to over a foot. As you might imagine, this kind of weather doesn't agree with many 500hp rwd sports cars, traction control or not. As a result, it has unfortunatly been a while since I have been able to get the Camaro out for a drive.

The good news is that things are looking up. The temperatures this coming week have highs in the upper 40s to low 50s, and lows at around freezing, and there doesn't look to be much rain in the forcast either. Hopefully this means I will be able to get the car out and exercise it a bit. I am not a huge fan of letting a car just sit, thats how things mysteriously go bad.
