What's that thing in the sky? The sun? Kinda burns my eyes when I look at it. It rained too! Salt free roads? AND it's supposed to be 61 degrees today?!

Is Winter over?!:orange:

I actually DROVE the viper on Saturday afternoon! Alright, it was only 8 miles, but it saw the same light of day that you mention.

Today I have to earn the funds to finance the petrol. Too bad because it's a perfect Viper day.

Fixed it for you. :p

Yes, BUT I was in first gear so it sounded fast!

And I looked like I was taking a NASCAR warm up lap, darting left and right to avoid gaping potholes.

Still lots of potholes and big puddles around Schen! But it was indeed a warm, sunny day in NJ today.

Roads here soaked with melted snow, and lurking potholes. First chance for me will be Saturday, and it's forecast to be a washout. Can't win. Been over a month, and only that one time since December. I'd at least like to get some fresher gas in it!!

The roads out here have so many frost heaves it like riding on a roller rollercoaster.

Is amazing how happy 50 degrees can make you! My car hasn't been out since November.

I was finally able to open the garage today for the first time since December! Like Pony23 says, the roads are full of heaves, salt and melted slop! I'm praying by April! Keep the faith east coast family, it will end..it will..

Oh man, you have no idea how bad it is in Linden! The right lane claimed at least a half dozen cars! I booked to the left lane. Going up to MetLife stadium Sunday to shoot some autocross before NYIAS.

I insulated my garage doors Monday so the cold weather is probably gone until next winter. The roads are still complete crap but at least I got to put my new plate on today so that was at least something.

Must have been the same thing that I sent over earlier this week. See I'm sociable like that :)

Anybody out there today? I went out for about a 1/2 hour or so. Potholes were managable and it was nice to get out of the garage. Hopefully the weather stays out of the 40's after today.

It did? It was bright and sunny all day yesterday. LOL

Didn't see any Vipers, did see a Porsche with pig lips an a ol' Cadillac with some big fins.

Had mine out as well on Sunday. I removed it from the 4 post lift at Quaker Steak and Lube in Edison. Boy! did I miss it. It's nice to have it back home.

Seeing that snow this morning was a bummer! It looks like a couple good rain storms are in store for this week to help finish cleaning the roads.

Jack, were you able to keep your car on a battery tender at QSL or did you have to go start it and clean it off every so often?

Well I wish it would shine here! We had out first UK Viper meet Sunday, after spending weeks detailing suspension, changing brake rotors, pads, polishing wheels, had to take the car to the Viper meet in the pouring rain :stickmen_burningsti Typical!

Car is absolutely filthy now :( Hit 72,000K on the clock during the journey :)

I thought I saw some flurries when I was outside today but figured it was just dust... Guess it was snow! The weathers been saying mid 50's and 60's this week but it hasn't got out of the 40's.

Fatboy, I saw some of the pictures from your meet and read about the rain coming down on you guys. It looks like it didn't slow anybody down as the turnout looked pretty good! Hopefully everybody enjoyed the day anyway.
