It's winter here in the mid Atlantic states. Here in southern PA we got about 2-3 inches of snow during the night. Nice shot of your car helping out. I had an artic white 96 LT1 coupe when I had my black 91 Z. Love those C4 Corvettes.

beauties...by my opinion black and the arctic white are the most elegant colours for C4s. I have promised my wife that I will sell the white C4 (when I will get the black ZR-1), but I am still holding off on it.... We have (here in the middle of europe) under zero during the night, so I wish we will have some snow too.

I hate the winter. Remember they call them summer tires for a reason.

Yes winter sucks. I have seen fellow Corvette owners in Canada who drive year round in the snow. They pick the right tires for the conditions. I got caught out in a sudden snow storm driving my 96 coupe. It was not fun with summer tires. I have also driven my first ZR1 in some less than desirable conditions. To think back in the day people drove their C2 and C3 Corvettes in the snow. Now I prefer to have the car stowed away all nice and covered. I really don't want to drive once they coat the road or use salt.

I remember driving my 427 in New Hampshire. Always had to have it inspected in December and there was always ice and snow... it was challenging to say the least. The worse part was washing it and wiping the ice off the body. Fun! Then put it away until Spring. I did fire it up in the driveway to keep it lubricated once a month.

My Beast is my only means of transportation right now. The Honda gave me 16 years of flawless service, but the engine block developed a crack.....So that's that. Every morning for the past month, I don't think it has been above 35 degrees. And the Z fires up right away every time. It can get hairy with no ABS or traction control, I think most of us have had the backend snap around on you at one point. I have seen more than a few new cars in ditches on my way to work, stopping to assist if I can. And I seem to get the same comment of "wow your driving that in this weather?"
