Incubation for a month okay?

If you have a 2009 Z with 17k miles. . . is it okay to leave it parked without your friend bothering to start it every week... for a month, in NY, its started to get cold etc...

Inside or Outside? I leave mine (6500 miles) in the garage (Unheated) here in Missouri but back it out or have the exhaust clear the door and run it at least weekly during the winter.

pressure up the tires to 42psi cold, fill your gas to the top before you go.

worst case you might drain your battery from the security system, etc.. if you have an outlet put a battery manager (tender) on there. if not, have your buddy drive it for more than 10miles in the 2nd week. should be fine though.
