Yeah, we're getting snow, so that means salt and next to no more cars out for the year.

Anyhow just a reminder.

Do all the dumb winter stuff now before we get 6+ inches of snow(if they got it right lol)

Check your antifreeze make sure its good.

Hoses, heater cores, etc.

Grease everything up on your suspension.

Charge your batteries.

Check the air or replace your tires if driving in snow.

Extra 50-75# in back of the thirdgen if u have to drive it :-)

make sure there's antifreeze in the race cars while they're put away, don't want to crack a block or radiator

Yep, it all started tonight. Had to drive "home" from Morris. Hit the accidents on I-80 and hopped off to take Rt 6 to I55 all way back to Downers Grove. Sucks. ALOT of ice out there, then the snow started hitting. And i gotta work in this crap

Still raining here in Nw In some snow/sleet on and off however.

Waiting for the nasty stuff to hit.

It will take alot to get a real amount on the ground, remember it was in the 60's the last week here lol

Drive carefully back there guys and gals! Better to be slow then have an accident.

Guess my golf clubs wouldn't be enough weight in the back of my Z28 if it started snowing here!

Too much snow for a canopy to handle I guess...

Luckily only the windshield and the dashpad were the only things damaged and insurance will pay for it

We have like maybe a 1/2 inch total, that might be overestimating it. Usually you guys get nothing and southern chicago and NW IN get clobbered

Ouch, dude that sucks it.

I dont trust anything out here in the colder weather unless its peaked roofed and reinforced to deal with the nasty sludge/ice/snow we always get cause of the lake.

good luck on getting her all fixed up.
