artyartyFinally! Took my car out today with 25,801.2 miles. It has finally seen the sun and it is HAPPY to be on the road!
And now I get to remember what 800 hp feels like.
First drive of the year!

Yep, I took mine out earlier this week. It had been under the covers since late August then the flood and it was down for the season.
There is a nice group of enthusiasts here who hold an event of one type or another every month in the non-winter months. First event was April 6, which was a gorgeous day. About 30 cars, mostly Ferraris, Lambos, and Porsches, but 2 GTs including mine. I had a lot of nose prints at the end of the day. Driving to and from the event was great after the long winter ( except for the potholes and loose stones ), and the GT got a lot of looks and thumbs up.
Looking forward to other events and just driving, and before you know it, it will be the Rally!

I hope to get the GT out later this week. I am waiting for the roads around the house to get cleared of all the small gravel they use for sanding in the winter. They are waiting longer this year and a friend in MoDot said they are waiting to make sure we don't get more ice or snow! Dang it's almost May!!

I too took mine out for the first time last Sunday. What fun! It had been since August (surgery and a very long Minnesota winter..)

I'll be getting mine out soon - Just got back from the Mustang 50TH in Vegas - roads are not in bad shape here but still raining off and on almost daily.
We are in the schizophrenic weather period. The other day it was around 80 and now the entire 10 day forecast is high 30s low 40s at night. Salt is long gone though. Potholes, however, are not. Must maintain vigilance!
Also, the Home Depot employees by my house do not look like that.

Hopefully! Camilo and I were going to sprint down to the 500 but we can make it a night drive.

Dave, you should have come out here.
Perfect weather for the weekend.
As we are running around the track, in 80 degree weather, we will think of you my friend.

Still tucked away in the garage, looking forward to getting her out soon. Hoping they fix all these potholes in Michigan soon!
