Default Is your spouse an S2000 widow?

I just spent 4+ hours yesterday working under the car and today another 3 hours doing a "Dragon" clean on the outside and interior. Usually the wife leaves me to my tasks but I might be in the dog house if I don't quit obsessing over my new "passion"

BTW Meguiars NXT wax is the best I've ever used;maybe Barry Meguiar will put me on "Car Crazy"

My wife is very understanding. I think that being a significant other to someone with an S2000 is a difficult job!

The car is Rick's "baby", and it is still a novelty to us, as we just purchased the car in January. I'm ready to hit the road, top down, whenever weather and time permits. We've had a few nice drives in it already. The car is something we both enjoy.
We don't have any "mods" planned for it, so outside of keeping it washed and waxed, we hope the time we spend with the car, is simply enjoying it, so, there is no S2000 widow here!


PS I've been driving a stick since way before becoming a "vintage" person, so I also enjoy getting behind the wheel .

Actually, popeye and lainey, the bigger issue for me is that my wife is a s2ki.com widow! My wife has always thought I'm nuts driving around in freezing temps with the top down, but she's always accepted it. The time spent online, though... that she has a bit a problem with.

The way my wife puts it: "As long as she sleeps in the garage, it's OK!"

I think Jerry is vying for the Vintage constable position to go along with his title as "Head VSA".
