End of next week....at least according to the government weatherman.
Here's hoping that for once the government knows what they are talking about...

You will soon forget the violation as the PPF works fantastic which you will see. You are going to wish it was 90 KM instead quite quickly. Dodge the bigger holes and have fun. Not sure what the weather is like in YEG but I hear it sucks so remember your cold tires and enjoy your new Grand Sport. You will definitely be washing it before you put it away and cover it.....but that's part of the fun and when you will see how good the PPF actually is in the strategic locations.
Enjoy
Thanks ddgermann. It didn’t feel illicit or wrong was extremely enjoyable. I hope that doesn’t mean I’m sick and twisted.
I just updated the Corvette outing in Alberta thread with some pics.
Take care over there!
Well i went out for 30 minutes or so this afternoon. The St. Albert Trial is dry. The car was thuroughly warmed, no trick driving, no jumping over buses, no burnouts then I swept the garage and parked it for another week.
I forgot how few klicks it has. Only 7205 and that's since late August 2018. .... I'll fix that this summer.

Credit for you going out.....so much gravel out there. Figure at least a month before it gets put.
I took my Vette out of hibernation today. Warmed it up, took up my temporary floor and went for a short 110 foot run to the end of the driveway and back and put it back in the garage. Next weekend the work will start...all fluids to be changed, calipers to be painted, 3D letters to be installed, rear tires, plugs and wires and finally a fuel filter when it arrives. Maybe a couple of other project will come up as time goes on.
Now, if only the streets were cleaned off. My Corvette
even came back.

I was hoping for mid April but it's still quite cool, summer only tires. Likely closer to the end of April. Given no income now, no insurance, that may even be delayed further. Here's hoping.

I now have an answer to my original question at the start of this thread. April 20 was the day! She is now out of storage and ready to go. I had her out a couple of times so far.
We have had some wonderful weather over the last few days (finally!), so out come the toys of summer.

I managed to get out for half an hour today. Not too many km but enough to get the Corvette grin back .
Ready Vette Go! Today was the day! Took a lovely cruise in the spring sun for a 350km round trip to Mundare, Vegreville, Tofield then home. It was such a treat to hear and feel the LT1 again after our long, long winter.

Very 
Happy to read this 
Montreal, Quebec; April 29, sunny day approx 14 Celsius, the Beast of the East has awaken this morning just picked it up from the storage, they had washed it and it looked beautiful. Short ride home (30 km), the roads here are really bad so be careful you decide to visit Montreal.
Called my insurance girl today and told her to activate my drive-it coverage on the Vette. Might go and fill up with fresh fuel tomorrow if it's nice but still sticking pretty close to the farm otherwise. Trailered home the skidsteer from the repair shop in Red Deer today so have lots to do to keep from getting bored.
This Saturday. Sunny and no rain. Seems to be May now instead of mid April. At least I can keep driving til the end of October for the last couple of years. Six months on, six months off.
