I am the same way. If I get caught in the rain its not so bad but if there is a chance of rain I leave the car home. The 93 has never seen rain so it is very clean especially on the underside. I know it sounds dumb to some guys but that would piss me off if I got caught in the rain and had to spend a weekend detailing the entire car. But hey spring is here!!

That brings back memories, Joe. You have me thinking...

Good luck.

Started her up on Saturday. Moved her out of the garage and put away all the winter ski stuff. IT was about 15 degrees and it was awfully tempting to do a first cruise. However Insurance will hold me back another 6 weeks for so.

20c+ in Ontario this weekend All I have to do now is get the cars stored in behind the 90 moved and we will be roaming the streets.

Best wishes to all for a bright and wonderful Easter weekend.

It was a beautiful weekend. Went for a long hike with my wife and dog (two individual creatures ). Then started to look at the ZR-1, it's been running very poorly since taking it out of storage. No codes that I could see, so I started with the basics.

Changed the plugs and the Dragon is flying on both wings again!

Number 8 is a pain!

Went for an evening blast down some quiet backroads where I could open it up a little to test fully. The grin is back!
