Did anyone else get their s2000 out for the first drive of the year today?

I fired mine up today as well. I went home for lunch and decided to take a half-day off instead and I got the car out for the first time this year.

I installed my upgraded LED instrument cluster first, and then drove the car for a couple of hours after that. The car ran great, it feels like it just rolled off the dealer lot (MY02), my tranny was smooth as silk, and the car made all the right sounds. What a great day.

I was glad to see the roads were pretty free of sand and salt, the rains in the last week must have helped wash some of that stuff away.

The lack of snow has also sped this process along. I noticed that there wasnt much crud on the ground even last week. Not too much used over the winter this year I suppose.
Can't wait for my early April trip to southwood.
Doing a Niagara run next week.
