remember, on initial startup, bounce that engine off the rev limiter, and hold it there until the engine is fully warmed up. Critical.

Wait for spring to buy good winter tires on sale and have fun whole year. Here where I live the winter is snowy(20cm/8 inches now) and summer is hot and this car works very well whole year. I really enjoy to drive this little car in various conditions. Not like I have other option, because its my only car lol.

Yeah of course thats when I get to have the real fun with it. I have 2 seasons. Drift season (lasts for 10 months of the year in Canada as the OP knows lol) and race season for the other 2.

Just took her out this weekend after a long storage in my garage. I totally feel you on this.

Been collecting parts waiting for spring to roll around.
