Default Cold temps and PS2's........... Whoa Baby

Drove my ProCharged C6 last night to our NCC meeting. When the meeting was over, I was cruising down the interstate, bored, so at 75 mph, shifted to 3rd and floored it. I guess it was a combination of 35* temps, cold tires, cold street, and horsepower, but the old car snapped sideways, just like I was on ice. Not bored anymore, , I stopped to clean out my britches. I'd read that the PS2's could be scary at cold temps. That's an understatement, in my book. Be careful out there!

You just gotta love those cold Temps. Always have a clean pair of underwear in the glove compartment.

That's one of the reasons mine is undercover in the garage from October to March.

I like the suggestion of a spare set of drawers in the glove box. Just may have to consider it.

My 345's do the same thing at 70 mph, but then they have 16K miles on them and still look good
