It's -40 celcius here in Saskatchewan. Cold enough to freeze the nuts off a jeep. I'm leaving today for sunny Ca. to spend Christmas with my daughter then off to the Aloha state for the new year. Long term forecast for here doesn't look too inviting to come home so I think I'm just gonna wait it out. Race cars and such just aren't that important right now. This old man has to keep his blood from freezing over. Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year too. My New Years resolution is to say YES!!!!! my stocker will return after more years than I care to count. I'm just screwining together a junk motor for now but it will make noise. Doug

The 6 to 10 inches we were supposed to get turned into 4"of snow,rain and freezing rain which is now a solid 2" of ice ,along with 20 to 30 mph winds and 0 deg wind chill. ......All is good tho, I finally fired up a customers '69 Z28 restoration. ....I can't take it on the road yet, but that 302 barking thru chambered pipes and the smell of a little VP in the gas makes it easier to take the first real day of Winter!....

For us its cold here in Southern IL,6 degrees with a strong steady wind. Went up to farm implement this morning to order some parts. Got there and everybody was standing in the parking lot. Seems the heat shut off sometime friday night, nobody stopped by over the weekend to check the building and the pipes in the back of the parts room froze and broke. The parts room looks like a skating rink and they had to bust out the glass front door to get in because all the doors froze shut when the water started coming out. What a mess.

I live behind the chedder curtain which is Wisconsin for you who didn't know that, but i believe we have somewhere around 46" of snow already,and its COLD! Last night for the emberassing Packer game it was 3-5 below zero, with wind chill of 15-25 degrees below zero! Race cars are on jack stands, race ready! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year To all , John & Ginny Lang!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn it's cold

Mikey, that's what the 5th door is for. Plow yourself a tunnel and even if you get stuck, you have an escape hatch!
