Well, finally the weather shaped up today ... in the 50s and dry ... went up and dropped the battery back in the car ... fired up with less than 5 seconds of turning ... removed the chemical dehumidifier (I recon a good quart of water and whatever had collected over the winter ... no wonder I had some mold on the carpet last year ...) and did a quick 2mi spin with the top down ... d@mn, did I miss that ...
Need to wash and polish the car, still got last year's Zaino layer on it ;)

I washed my car this afternoon, but tomorrow I'm gonna do a full detail. If I just had my wheels here, I'd put them on.

I was at the Nurburgring yesterday. Track was dry except a few spots. Not much traffic, very nice to drive. Saw a wrecked car on the track on my first lap (looked like a Porsche but I couldn't tell except that it was red...).

Saw 2 Corvettes and 2 Vipers (among the usual Porsches). Ah and there was a beautiful brand new Porsche GT3 RS there! :D

BTW: I decided that it's more fun to drive the car than to wash it, hence the name autoMOBILE. :lol:
