I liked the 5 months I had, with the ‘19 Sebring Orange Grandsport,
But I think (until the ME) I’m finally Happy with this ‘19 Sebring Orange Z06. Lol
Need a good and heavy early rain to clean the Calcium Chloride residue/dust of the roads.
The latest possible gremlin;
'It's destroying wiring, harnesses and it's causing huge problems with the electronics'

Beware of road rust: A new salt solution on Edmonton's winter roads will cause serious corrosion damage to cars and trucks. (The Canadian Press)
Still, overall you've got to drive them to enjoy them.

My 6 month storage policy expires March 31 so April 1st weather permitting. We've had a crazy winter this time with its late arrival mixed with a crazy warming period that caused things to start to green and bloom followed by a bitter cold snap and lots of snow. Having some crazy temperature swings between shorts and t-shirt weather followed by cold snaps and snow flurries. Last snow flurry was on Tuesday the 12th.
I'm envious but also happy for you. I did 3 days work in Victoria in early December and saw two Vettes cruising around town. That really got my dander up over living in Ottawa and being lucky if I have the Vette on the road by the end of April then back in storage at the end of October. Hope your spring comes extra early this year.
This Sunday for me!!
8 month policy but will prob park it end of October

How about may or june ? this is 2day march 16 my place , drove around with the Alpine , but it will take awhile for the piles to melt, was thinking of burning them but I don't want to pay Carbon Tax. More pics in another thread I'll start to show it's not fake news.
got mine all cleaned up and just waiting for warmer weather and dry streets....
Well, since in the greater Vancouver area we have the dubios honor of paying the highest gas prices in Canada, I dont feel to bad that we are already driving and washing our cars. Gorgeous day, car filled up, and going on a nice 'run' with a few of my friends..... LOL 
Justt took it out of storage today , registration wise at least.
Hoping for the first small ride this weekend to get the EMC relearning after changing the IACs this winter.
I'm sorry that I am an old fart and have to warn you, but don't mess with expirations of contracts. You will be driving it home on the 31st, or they will be seizing it and selling it at your expense. Where do you live? You should be able to take it home before the end of March for sure.
Yes, Vancouver Island is generally pretty enviable for their road conditions year round. I can handle snow without issue when the roads remain wet. I have driven in a LOT worse, lol. I would probably really like living there, but I don't dig the idea of being stuck on that island and having to take a plane or a ferry to get anywhere.
Let's see about when they start to fix the potholes and clean the streets, and maybe that will give me some time to fix my s**t. lol.
A little over 100kms......today!!!
What a relief! Threw the arse end sideways a time or three.
Not too many pot holes, they haven't filled them all though.
I noticed the heaves in the pavement....a lot.
Ahhhhhhhhhh.

The first day of Spring 2019 - good on you Axe. Can't wait to get that feeling again and after my upcoming 2 days at Spring Mountain maybe I won't be anxious about tossing the arse end out. Hope you get lots more kms in the next few days.
The rear end will move a bit if your doing it right. But have no worries.... it snaps back into place before you have time to worry as you accelerate out of the turn.
Your eyes will pop out later when you see the G meter on your PDR recordings.
Have fun.
Looking forward to gaining the experience of doing that at SM and THEN coming home to do it. Very confident that the experience will come with some practice. I have done it for many years on gravel roads with my little MGB but I have the confidence of knowing what to expect and how to steer and power it out.
Out today for its first run. Fell good to be back on the road.
