    I just got back from a quick drive- the rain washed away the salt on the roadways and the roads dried out- I mapped a way to get from my town to Calandra's bakery in Fairfield NJ to pick up some fresh Italian bread for dinner without hitting any water puddles...since the salt hit the road I wanted to drive my car so badly, but today I just had time to do a quick 30 minute run to the bakery, milk store and back. Oh man I love my 360!

    Anyone else get out today? The whole day was nice but there were random puddles which I wouldn't want to hit if you had cleaned your car already for winter storage...so I couldn't drive the car anywhere else (plus I was busy all day).

    More snow/ice/salt coming our way in the weather forecast, so I guess I'll see everyone in the spring at the Chatham bakery meets- can't wait! (by the way I don't have an obsession with bakeries- just coincidental that my run today was to one- more of an excuse to take the car out and sneek out of the house ;) )

    I figured you were out today Rich- I'm almost certain I heard the enzo going up Horseneck Road- the houses behind my house face that road so sometimes I hear a special car going by or loud motorcycle...I never had a chance to stop by with the 360, and now I don't think I can until spring!

    Anyone else out today- there had to be...I only saw a pristine restored challenger and a couple of nice mustangs out, but there must have been others!

    Had my E-Type out today. Boy, she was hard starting for some reason - I think I flooded her.

    Also noticed I have a slow leak in the front tire, but a little air and I was out for a long cruise!

    I put about about 80 miles on my 360 today (between Manhattan and Long Island). Don't care about puddles too much :)

    Very well could be. E-Type does have a metal tank, and once I got it running, I went to get gas and there were no more issues (although it was completely warmed up by then).

    But as you said - I did get it going and I enjoyed the ride!
