My baby has been hibernating for the winter and I am very much wanting to get her out of the garage...of course the 3" of snow yesterday did not help much. Anyway I just called the insurance agency today and asked them to re-instate my liability insurance effective March 20th (First "official" day of spring) so I guess she will be coming out - at least to get some gas, since she's getting kinda low.

Anyway, I was curious how everyone else (who puts their car away in the evil months) deals with this? Do you guys/gals have any tricks that help the time pass, that I have yet to learn?

 

Haa haa, Mine has been away since I bought it last January. Only to come out 3x. Yes it is rough... I guess just try to keep yourself busy in the winter... Ski/Board

 

Last year I had made a bunch of CD's that I listened to when driving the S2000. Ever now and then I'll play them in the house while reading car magazines or just tinkering. Somehow the music brings back the memories of a long ago summer! Your post reminded me my S is getting somewhat low on gas too, sure hate to take it to the pump, with the prices of gas going sky high everywhere.

 

This gives me an idea: Why not record the Vtec sound of the S2k and play it in you winter car, give it some gas and push yourself back into the driver's seat

mines still hiding but i'm getting real itchy

 

I've been going into my garage and removing the car cover more and more. My girlfriend caught me sitting in it and did the thing. "Boys and their toys" was all she said. I've order a set of drilled rotors from Team Spugen for something to do until the snow melts. I'm guessing it won't be until May 1 before the S2000 comes out. Let's hope we have a "classic" Summer to go with this "classic" New England Winter. Think Spring!

even if it does get warmer - be careful of all that sand! I had a fun time countersteering in my RSX yesterday going round a bend that was sandy at 40mph...
