With temperatures finally hitting mid teens this past Easter weekend, I FINALLY got the ride out of the garage and ventured out for a nice drive. Good and bad having long winters in my neck of the woods. Bad in that I don't get to drive the nicer cars as often as the daily drivers, but good in that it's just like Xmas each spring when you finally get the opportunity to bring your baby out and enjoy a nice drive.
 
Yeah we were able to bring our cars out a little earlier here in TO but the roads are shot to all hell from all the freeze thaw and salt. Had a good few runs too this past Easter weekend. I posted pictures on the formula red thread
 
Was at teh bodyshop yesterday when a customer pulled up in his Ferarri FF, I figure if he can have his car out, why not me? My gues is he has a bigger budget than I do.
I won't take my car out until after the roads are cleared of gravel, or I get my PPF installed, whichever comes first.
 
Have had mine out for pretty much all of April, those potholes keep my reflexes ninja-like!

Sean-can't wait to see your car out.
 
Damn. Spoke tooooo soon. 15cm of snow today. Going to be another week before the ride can come out of hiding again.
 
Easter weekend? I was heading off to Lake Louise for a few days of skiing! I have never seen that much snow on the runs at the end of April and it was definitely not spring skiing kind of temperatures! Given that Lake Louise got another 40+ cm of snow this weekend, that could be the recipe for another wet June in Cowtown. Of course, that assumes that it is going to warm up and melt by June!

No snow in Regina; but, the temperature is barely above 0C, the wind is freezing cold and the roads still look like a gravel pit. Maybe I will get the NSX out of storage by mid May!
