Default Bad 928 withdrawal pains....

Man, I can tell when I have had enough winter and begin to look forward to the cars coming out of hybernation......I start reading ALL the 928 threads rather that just the ones with (personally) interesting titles. I miss driving my shark.....

Since the above is likely of zero interest to anyone else here, here is a picture of me and my buddy on top of a mountain we climed with our sleds this weekend.

Which one are you? I'm having the same pains you are. That damn groundhog had to see his shadow. Booooo. Oh well, I still have to finish my TB/WP and other odds and ends.

My withdrawal symptoms are manifesting themselves in accelerating expenditures and work being done on the car. New tires and seatbelts so far this week... I'm down about 700 bucks.

We've had an unusual winter this year in Utah. A ton of precipitation, but in the form of snow in the mountains and rain in the valleys. (And therefore no salt on the roads!)

Leaves plenty of time for driving the shark between storms. I've had it out 2-3 times a week all winter long! Haven't even needed a battery minder.

Nyah, nyah, nyah!

(I figured I'd hurry and post a snot-nosed reply like that before the California and Florida guys did.)
