I felt like I was in Pittsburgh again.

You should have asked them to take the Spyker for a test drive!

If it makes you feel any better we in Coeur d'Alene Idaho got seven feet of snow in two weeks. It's still on the ground now like a gray primordial ooze. As soon as I get my r6 back from the shop I can guarantee it will snow again. DOH!

Coeur d'Alene really is a nice place though.

I can hear them now: "Cutting doughnuts in the parking lot? No problem!"

Got 5 inches here Thursday.

that will add another couple of weeks to my waiting before I can unleash the Elise.

kmhepler · 03-01-2009, 06:30 PM

No snow -- yet--here in central Pa but sky is ominous. And Kendo88, you probably need to resize your photos before uploading.

Baysailor · 03-01-2009, 06:41 PM

We have 4 maybe 5 inches here so far. I took my Elise out for a spin in it earlier, TC was kicking in like crazy. RE-01R's did an ok job, but how much can you expect out of summer performance tires in the snow! Maybe I should have thrown my A048's on.

tandemracer · 03-01-2009, 07:48 PM

Our Autocross today was canceled because of the snow.

SweetDaddyD · 03-03-2009, 05:00 AM

We got one weird lighting strike in the middle of the snow. It struck a gas line about 10 houses down. Just getting where everything is starting to work again (internet, phones, etc)

I attended the Skippy 3-day racing school at Road Atlanta this weekend- Needless to say we called it quits at about noon on Sunday-

After 3 days of driving a wet line, I feel a lot more confident on a wet track!
