Unhappy I am in sorrow.

Winter is coming up fast and that means that i have to put my car in my garage. I have to wait until late April until i can drive it again.

Do you guys actually have a set schedule to park it for the winter? Can't you just wait for the temps to drop and first snowfall, or is it illegal?

I'm with artguy, California winter means a frosty 40 degree morning with highly oxygenated air. Excellent boost spike weather.

Reading these makes me appreciate living down here in NZ that much more .. climate that allows us to drive all year round without having to deal with the extremes of heat you guys get up there ..

On stands today and pulling off the stuff I did last Winter. Time to check and replace every brittle harness on this thing. For You guys who are going single, make sure Your harneses are in good shape and triple check work done by others to make sure it was done properly!
I had a whole Summer with a car that never ran properly and thought it was the **** I did, but was not.
Have a good Winter snow bound people, We just party more up here in Canada when it gets cold.
