I don't believe that counts for the clutch break in. Pretty sure it needs shifting and varied RPM's to break in correctly. That is how it has always been explained to me. which sucks but they're kinda expensive to burn up every year so...

My GF and I were just talking the other day about how cold it is here (high in the 60's). Meanwhile.. I had been bugging Groove about his progress and as we were speaking he texts me "Windchill of -35 so I haven't been able to work on the car much"

I did live in NYC for 4 years so I kind of get it.

We might just be a touch bitter that we have to leave our Z's locked up for 5 months while you southerners debate whether your max performance tires will lose a little traction on the "brisk" 60 degree January morning commute. If i didn't like our summer months so much I think i'd come down and join the 12 month party.

I have noticed my turbos spooling much faster in the "cold" weather.. I can hear them whine right now when I am casually accelerating in traffic.

You are going to learn to hate the summer because it not only costs you a good amount of HP but you also lose that spool quickness too.

Yeah, I had the joy of moving here in November so just in time for the winter months with not even being able to say I love the summers. I hear they are amazing though and I am really excited. Bought a Wildcat and can not wait to go rip up some of the forest trails in the state parks!

I feel your pain. I bought my Z at the end of Nov. Was a long 4 months before I could take out the new toy... Was even worse since it was my first sports cars. So excited and them boom sit and stare at it for four months.
