The middle finger of the finger lakes (you better like a little lake effect).
Nice. I went to Cornell for grad school; beautiful area. So what is with the Utah plates? Did you locate the car on autotrader or something? Why was it plated in UT?

And Watkins Glen!
For fun, I buzz around the "old street course" at the Glen. This next weekend iis the Vintage weekend, and many S2000's will be circulating the old course.
Watkins is a great place. Ithaca....is 10 sq. miles....surrounded by reality.

ah gotcha. I imagine they don't move a lot of RWDs in Syracuse. I left my truck at the syracuse airport outdoor parking for a month Dec-Jan and it was completely encased in snow & ice when I got back. Good times.


I went the the Johnson School MBA program.

Thanks!

I've received some weird remarks from friends.... like: "What is up with the Yuppie sh1t cars? First the Ferrari (I don't have, means S2k lol), and now that Batcoupe???!!!"

Wife said it best: "What a great car the G is when we're not in the S2000"

Great looking ride. As far as winter performance; you'd better get the snow tires on it as soon as sub 50 degree temps hit. My G coupe was a third car for me, so I did not change the rubber come winter. On the occasional day i'd taken the G and the weather made an unexpected turn, leaving us a dusting of snow, etc, I was screwed. The tires and intrusive 'VDC' left me stranded. Just as the S though, if you have skill and the right tires, you're going to be just fine in the winter.

Third car for me too. I used to drive a ford van with all seasons and made it up some scary things. Studs will make it easy...
