    Too much salt out there for me! It has to rain a while before mine will go back out. Plus I turn down the insurance and put it on dollies.

    Just flashed with a Cortex 2950 93 performance tune. I know all the positives of a reputable tuner or dyno tune so no need to hammer me about a canned tune. Rotofab cai coming next then solo axle backs. For those that think just the canned tuned doesn't make a difference, they've lost their minds. It's not a blown race car like most of yalls, but it really woke it up for a dd.

    Anyone that says they don't make a difference is nuts, or being an a-hole! I had a canned tune from VMS on my GT and it made a hell of a difference.

    We have been lucky ..only one snow storm. But I decided not to bother because they dumped too much sand and salt down last week. Its not worth taking her out just to giver her a wash again.

    Jump started it and drove it this weekend. Ordered a battery tender!
    Still getting an odd transmission leak. Nothing after driving short or long distances, garage floor is clean. Pull it out of storage and there is about a cup or two of tranny flud in a trail. BTW, I back it in. Had it on a lift at the beginning of winter at a great local shop, the undercarriage is dry and clean. No hint of a leak, even peaked all over with a flashlight, nothing wet to be seen. ?
