That's what you Canadians get for living in the icey tundra hell! It's already warming up here, highs in the low 40s every day. That's early enough for me, plus the track opens this Saturday weather permitting so that's the wake up call! Plus i've got work to do.

I live in Minnesota. I could drive my stang right now, the roads are dry and almost all snow is gone. But the roads are still covered in salt. I'm def not driving it. I usually dont drive it until April when its warm and no salt on the roads. People say salt only hurts you car if its wet. I dont care. Its still salt to me.
