    Had a fun time driving down from Marinette yesterday afternoon. I stopped counting cars after seeing one in the ditch every 1/8th mile for a few miles. Didn’t see clear roads until I hit chicago and then south of there freezing rain started 🙄

    I had a buddy put a car in the ditch around Mauston yesterday, ended up almost in a marsh about 30-40ft off the road, almost took out a tree too. He's a subpar driver overall which is what i think landed him there, but still. Only an inch or two of snow down when this happened too. 

    Also REALLY hoping that class gets cancelled tomorrow, I'd kill to not have to go to my physics lab.

      The M3 wasn't making it through the 4ft ice wall that the good folks of Ozaukee Co built for me.

        port wash is certainly getting it worst.

        i have enjoyed this trend of 'CANCEL EVERYTHING!' because it keeps all the cars off the road...which is the only real reason the road is dangerous when it snows.

          The main road is surprisingly clear for the 11ish inches we got.

                I think anyone can agree that the cheapest Ferrari on market is generally not a good idea. You'd think they'd have a much better description, especially being a dealer that sells tons of exotics and projects.

                    Definitely not a good idea.. I found more info on in it on FChat, a couple guys there have looked at it an gotten the scoop. Would be something where I got a PPI before hand, and I know already based on other's info that it's due for a major service and the obvious interior refinishing.

                    General consensus is, if you can drop the rear subframe that cradles the engine/trans/rear suspension you can save a lot of money, and if you don't need something pristine it would be a great driver's car.

                    I'm under no illusions it would be cheap, or fast, or smart in any way.

                    Heck no, it's already got a 9.2 second 0-60, why ruin that performance with a cheap American engine?

                      Can't see more power and torque hurting 0-60, especially since it's mid-engine.

                      Also, because CIS.

                                        I've always used Bosch with good results. Don't have first-hand experience with Delphi.
