    winter sucks

    Bought an V10, traded a porsche 07 911 s. Drove the car for a few days than winter struck the Delaware beaches, 6inch storm, 24inch storm than a 10inch storm. Car has been stuck in garage for a week.

    Counting the days til the thaw.

    Try putting your car in storage since the end of November. Fortunately I was able to go for a ride with Harrison. I needed my R8 fix and I am okay now. I hope to get my car out again in March.

    its a pain isn't it? To keep your car locked up. Try skiing. Helps get the mind of it. For a bit. Until you drive home from the ski resort thinking "i could be doing this in an R8"

    But no worries. Springs almost here.

    Maybe the only sucky thing @ R8s and winter is there is no place to stow gear. Imagine driving with your ski boots on. And there is only enough room for a gals' nitey.-So this is pretty much a summer car. For me.
