Default I'm sick of winter...
This is my least favorite month of the year, I'm glad it's already the 13th.

I take it as a vacation until the next racing season. If I ran the car all year long I would spend more money in parts wanting to go faster. Limiting myself for what 5 months is a blessing in my book.

I just put my all season tires back on today since it SEEMS like any more snow we get will be negligible, hopefully for me anyway....

But being able to really get on it again was incredible! You know its been too long when 110 seems REALLY fast. I can't wait till the weather is nice to just cruise around for no damn reason

We had had no snow, unlike last year. I recall us getting snow in mid March in years past.
