Good to see the nicer weather finally getting here, supposed to be a sunny 60 here this afternoon before in clouds up this evening. Now if the ground will just dry up from all the rain.

Long enough to get the car properly warmed up so I can usually take the traffic circle a bit aggressively, and VTEC my way out of it.

Careful with that new zero turn mower. Get it in the mud and you are screwed! Once one wheel is spinning, you are not going anywhere.

Yesterday, I decided to excersise the Turbo.
It's too crazy.
I was on a deserted stretch of road, with fields on both sides... and decided to touch it off.
I fixated on a phone pole that crossed the road from the line of poles as my lift point. It was maybe an 1/8 mile ahead.
I didn't make it as I lifted waaaay before that as it accelerated too much for me to comprehend.
This is the one car that needs and thankfully has VSA (PSM as the P folk say).
I'm content in the S2k, and I can drive it without an underwear change.

Had to have been high 40s or low 50s on the drive in. I had the top down wearing a polo shirt with the heater off and I was fine.
