Those of us wanting to get our cars out April 1st

[Z28Roxy]

Thursday Night
Mostly cloudy. Chance of light snow in the evening...then snow likely after midnight. Snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches. Lows in the upper 20s. East winds 5 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 70 percent.

Doh! :stare Maybe they'll just throw more dirty sand down.

[slickwilly]

Goddamnit. I'm getting really sick of coming outside in the mornings, keys in hand, only to find that the weather sucks too bad to drive the Mustang around.

[jbiscuit]

I actually heard a total accumulation of 2-4 by Friday morning!

[Cutlass Queen]

Early April Fool's Joke...Please :crying

[70 cutlass 442]

my sleds still ready to go. looks like ill be the only one having fun

[michelle]

As long as it is all gone by RA, I am fine with it.

[Slow Joe]

I wasn't planning til a Mid April debut if at all in April... There hasn't been close to enough rain to wash down the roads yet... Plus this is pothole city...

[Nix]

April 1st?!?!? No fuggin way, still just too early. For sure by May 1st Im guessing. :banana1:

[jbiscuit]

yea I agree...this is going to be a late year for getting cars out. The roads are a mess, there is threat of more snow on the way which means MORE salt/sand and they need to start fixing some of these potholes! It WAS looking promising for a little bit there

Fo sho J, my damn neighborhood looks like a damn sandbox there is so much salt and sand on the road. It will take some really severe storms with some terential (sp?) downpours to wash this shit away.

[Deggy]

I hate snow....Maybe if I had a snowmobile it would be different.

[Mr Twigbert]

Well I paid up untill April 1st.. As long as its not too bad I'll get it and just park it in my garage.. Just being able to look at it will make me feel just a tad bit better..

[Beagle]

thats why i pulled the camaro out the garage today. put 60 miles of fun on it.

[Waver]

Honestly, if it does snow, It wont be much, weather is too nice, and with the LOWS being in the upper 20's I wont stick very well

[Slow Joe]

:rolf I need to go visit the Mustang one of these days...

[Poncho]

get any good races or kills?

[Chalky]

I usually am on the road in mid March. Not this year. Normal highs are >40* this time of year.

[Waver]

I know I did on sunday

[Waver]

:rolf I need to go visit the Mustang one of these days...

that is if you can find it.

[Mr Twigbert]

Are you kidding.. The only thing Beagle can kill is a pair of his own undies..

[Z28Roxy]

Yes, I hope so.

[Mr Twigbert]

All I know is I have intentionally been going outside and peeing on the snow in the back yard.. My theory is I am helping to melt the snow faster.. :flamet

[Beagle]

actually yea a smoked a mod motor stang. other than that i just drove the car. what you all worried about? the roads are fine i went from oak creek to 76th street with our seeing any salt. i did see a bunch of sand theres no salt out. but my cars going back in the garage until april 1st.

[Poncho]

Who would have thought that a while car wouldn't appear salty?

[Beagle]

well for one the car was washed and waxed before i put it away with a cover on it. anyone with decent vision could tell. even my chrome wheels didnt have a spec on them.

[Beagle]

dan you always got something to say. its time to back your big mouth up. sack up and race me or even anyone else. ill be looking for you in the rear view mirror. :thumbsup

[Poncho]

Yes, cuz that has anything to do with salt, you ****tard.

I washed my car Friday and put it in the garage. I drove it on Saturday, Sunday, and Tuesday. It is covered in salt.

Why does you being a total ******* idiot have anything to do with racing?

[Beagle]

you have a terrible attitude. there has been nothing but sand put down here didnt say out by you. i really worried about all the salt even though it has rained monday and tuesday. man there is so much salt on my car its ridiculous.......... not. what you getting all worked up for im not calling you out. i think i tried that and you pussed out but anyways i just think your a jack ass and said ill be looking for you in my rear view mirror.

[Slow Joe]

Beagle, it hasn't rained hard enough for the salt to be washed off the roads yet...

[Poncho]

what you getting all worked up for im not calling you out.


sack up and race me or even anyone else. ill be looking for you in the rear view mirror. :thumbsup

you're not calling me out?

Good luck getting races on salt and sand covered roads that aren't washed clear yet. That dried white stuff on them is called salt.

I work right off of highway 100 and watertown plank. It's been salt ALL WINTER. except for the last two snows, since they were running out of salt everywhere.

[ricksws7]

NO way my car is comming out April 1st. Not untill the roads are clean. It defeats the pupose of storing the car if you take it out on dirty salt,sand covered roads. Rick

well in OC they have been using sand for the last month. im not worried about it. one time wont hurt. just wanted to drive it. thats what i bought it for.

[OxmanWI]

Even if there wasn't any salt or sand on the road I still wouldn't take my car out until they fix all the pot holes. Who in the hell knows when that's going to be....:(

[Al]

I saw a fully loaded salt truck on the onramp at I43 and County Line road in Mequon. I thought he was a bit early.

[SmokinRAM114]

well 3-6in plus of snow. in the middle of march is enough to freak me out.

[turbogarrett]

I'm trying to get my car on the road by april, think I'll make it? :D

[Z28Roxy]

If you push it.

[Slow Joe]

That might take some doing... But I've seen it done...

[Voodoo Chick]

As long as the roads are at least dry come April, I am driving my cars. Come on, they are CARS........they are not going to melt! Clean 'em off after you drive them, they'll be fine. Hell, my two have made it 35 and 29 years respectively, been through plenty, a little end-of-winter weather isn't going to do them in. If it gets bad out again, back under the cover, or back in the garage, no worries. I think they are all a whole lot tougher than we give them credit for.

[Beagle]

today it is so nice out how can we resist driving our cars.

I dunno man, one season I was late getting my truck in storage. I had to drive it a short distance to storage through some salt. Like 5 miles. It was enough to corrode my upgraded aluminum deep transmission pan and put surface rust on a bare spot of the frame!

[Voodoo Chick]

Well, my '73 Olds had to be driven through a (bad) winter a while back, unfortunately out of necessity, no other choice, it was awful, but she made it through with no damage. I'm not saying this is a good (or smart) thing to do, but if the weather gets nice and dry, I have to agree with Beagle, drive 'em.....Just for the record, though, I will NOT be taking them out 'til some of this latest 18 inches of sh*t melts off......Which will probably be right around July......
