<VV> Winter Doldrums

[vairologist@juno.com]

Smitty says:  Spike was suffering from light deprivation and asked me to
take him out for a run at a Corvette club autocross.  Bright sunny day
with temps in the high 30s-low 40s.  Tire traction was great if you could
find any on the concrete course.  Had one straight that was a blast,
getting deep into the boost.  First run tried to drive like there was
some traction and spent as much time sideways as frontwards.  Finally
realized that wasn't working and ran mid pack with as many rice burners
and Vettes behind me as in front of me.  We are ready for some barn time
again now.
