We've already had over 4 feet this year which is more than the total average annual snowfall here!
I fortunately have had the track car on stands in the garage all winter doing little projects. My trailer is completely snowed in right now. There's about 5 feet of snow in front of it. At some point I need to get my car to the body shop and Conway Autoworks. I can't imagine when this stuff will melt enough for me to get the trailer out.
I'm generally a fan of the snow and love my seasons being a New England native, but I have to say I'm getting a bit tired of moving snow.

I've been in Albuquerque NM for the past 2 weeks. Flying home to Central NJ tomorrow night. No idea how I'm going to get from the street to the house.

CJ,

You don't need to worry. Only green and yellow group drivers are required to shovel off the track before the first run group of the day goes out.

best,
Mike

Just knock this **** off. Since other commitments are keeping me from the 48, my first event this year is the zone 2 DE at VIR March 18-21. So, if the track gods are just, and all these parts I keep ordering are sufficient offering; there will be NO snow allowed at this event!!!! Lord knows why but I am bringing the wife and kids this year. Hear that track gods???!!!

Just think, the first DE event starts in April. Will we need snow tires or snowmobiles?

I love snow, but I am getting tired of this. Even my dog is looking at me as she goes out with a look that says "WTF".

Mike - That might not be enough. I see Pete Tremper posting: Maybe requiring fitted plows by 'tech' for the March NJMP event just in case ???
