just got back from my first run. took the wife to timmy's. three trys before she turned over. sputtered for a while, but got her up to speed and she purred like a kitten. all the tires were down a half titch, so i pumped them up to 30 psi.

DANG she's been a long winter.

Mine is still napping, but if the weather looks good, I'll uncover it next weekend and start my spring upgrades. I have lots of work to do before our club's first meet on May 9th. I'm shooting to have it ready by the end of April. By then, the roads will be cleaner and with any luck, they will have filled some of the potholes.

Mine too is still napping as well. Still waiting till the roads get a little cleaner. When I am able to get my Z back out (Hopefully soon) Gotta do my spring maintenance to it.

Many roads here in MN are like driving on railroad ties too. There are really two seasons here in MN. Winter and road Construction :D

Actually I have been lucky this winter. Several times we had a warm spell followed by drenching rains that washed all the salt of the roads making it safe to drive the Z for a day or two before I had to put it back in the garage to hide from the rust monster.

For the past month or so I have been able to drive it just about any time I wanted to. Of course I have only had the time on weekends, and this past weekend there really wasn't any time for fun.
