She was about 30 minutes late. Snow tires did well, the rear wanted to come around on her a few times, but all in all not bad. I think she feels much better getting one under her belt.

Maybe the snow got some of the idiot drivers off the road for a while. I'm not necessarily worried about my driving.. I'm not in a hurry and just take my time..it's the other drivers out there trying to kill people with their crazy, speeding, wreckless driving in bad conditions.

and it couldn't be any colder at a worse time. I'm having my clearbra installed this Sat, and need to wash/clean the car up before hand. Now, my window of opportunity is tomorrow, as Thur & Fri is only to be in the upper 20's. Dang it!! So I will be washing it tomorrow and keeping it in the garage till Sat.

Man it was crazy around Indy Monday. My baby has been in the garage this week. It was frustrating watching this guy as he wizzed by me Monday morning while I was creeping along. Then it was funny when I saw him in the middle culvert a couple miles down the road stuck in the mud! It was super slick that day. My four wheel drive had no grip. Hope you guys up north don't get snowed in!

Yes Monday was quite the adventure, first snow in the Camaro, and I dont have snow tires. Needless to say there is not much grip with the original tires. Its a good thing I only live a couple of miles from work.

I caught this one a little late I am from the Indianapolis area about 2 miles off the highway south of Beech Grove. I spent the money and got snow tires and had no trouble getting around the 1300.00 for the tires and rims were well worth the money. Anyone have an idea if you have snow tires on right now when you will be taking yours off. I am thinking it is getting close to time to do that.

wer2foxs · 03-06-2010, 09:28 PM

Hey Dragom, I hope you are right about taking the snow tires off but don't jinx us just yet lol! Hope you can meet with other locals around here soon. I am sure we will whip up something.

leadfoot · 03-07-2010, 07:38 AM

Snow tires will come off soon. But not yet. I might actually wait until around the first of April. Really don't want to jump the gun on the switch.

This is Indiana, I shall NOT be tricked by one nice weekend.

Pulled her out of the garage yesterday and took her out for a spin. Forgot just how fun these things are to drive. It was driving it for the first time WEEEEEE!!!! Another cruise planned for today!

I have been having Fun (a little sarcasim) all winter sliding around on the summer tires. I am glad it is starting to warm up though so it will be a little less stressfull driving.

You can definitely tell the spring is around the corner. Had a few SS's stop by and the phones are getting busier for sure.
