Why I hate this forum .. (well not really).

Car has been parked since October. Being on here and just seeing all of the sweet Camaro's you people have are really making me want to drive my car, lol!

Anyone else get this way? (Unless of course you've got yours on the road right now).

Definatly counting down til spring.

I thought you were going to say because people correct your spelling and grammar.

Took it through a huge blizzard on the way home from a ski trip in Vermont... Wouldn't recommend for the weak at heart but it was an "experience".

Maybe if you have a few inches in your garage you can put it in reverse and then drive forward.. LOL Good Luck!

This is what I tend to do in my driveway if it's clear. I reverse to the bottom, then back up to where it was ...

As soon as I put mine away for the winter, my thoughts instantly turn to what I can buy for it this year. It's funny how that never enters my mind when I'm driving it....only when it's stored. I'm on camaro5 a lot more during the winter than in the spring or summer. This is where I get all the info I need to buy the mods for the car!

My thoughts exactly! All I can do is think about what I can hope to do come the spring / summer! Headers for example I am currently saving for...

I just can't wait until I get to take it for a drive down some country backroads. Love going up by this lake about 45mins north of Toronto where I live.

I haven't seen mine since I got back to the office from lunch. Even that feels like way to long.

A buddy I work with always tells me how nice it is to drive in northern ontario and that I should take the scenic route if I drive through.

I really wish I could take my car back to newfoundland. Some nice roads there. You ever watch the targa rally in nfld? I always wanted to enter. Gonna need some practice first lol.

Every time I have a cig im in the garage just staring at the car. I just sold my sled to buy the rest of my parts for the car and now we have like 5ft of snow....sigh...

All you guys that put your cars away for the winter should invest in a wireless web cam so you can check in on your car from anywhere. It's also a good security cam.
