It is nice here virtually all year, except in the summer when it hits 110 degrees. But even us truck guys can enjoy the weather with the windows down and the sun shining. I think it is near 70* today.

Yep, I've had the Tops off the past couple of weekends...Couldn't ask for nicer weather.

You're right about all the LS1's being modded down here. Back home in Indiana I hardly found anybody with more than a catback, but in Dallas, everybody has a heads/cam setup. Gotta love the competition!

All I have to say is not all of Texas gets good weather, it's been raining here for like 3 days straight... That aside taking of the T-Tops in February is the coolest thing I can think of..
