Ha Ha.. I feel your pain. But lately, no snow, dry roads, not too bad if you have to drive you LS1 in it. But, I think we are suppose to get snow tomorrow and some over teh weekend.. ME, I park it in the winter and drive my truck.

I have taken my car out lately because the roads have been dry. Shoot, the other day down by lakeville I had her up to 145 or so..

Welcome to the site....I feel your pain with the **** weather!! Up here in Michigan it doesn't get any better! But as far as mods definitily do the free mods, they don't get you a ton of power but workin on it is better then just lookin at it IMO!!
hey hey welcome, i share ur hate for winter, i'm from buffalo we get sh*t on during this "hell hole" season. i usually drive a shitbox but with the money its costin in upkeep i coulda done some more mods... maybe i would be more confident if my car had traction control, but i just dont wanna take a chance in hurtin my car!

I'm not bustin *****, be thankfull you've got snow and not a 6000 acre brush fire in your backyard. Fire
davered...get ready, snow on the way this weekend...and i was hopeing we'd be all set till spring now w/ this 40-50 degree weather. If it helps any of you guys...i bought a cheap Jeep Cherokee, put a 3" lift and put some 31" MT's on it to help deal w/ the snowy season...not as fun as warm weather but it sure beats driving a 2wd car in the snow.
