Last year at this time I had put about 1000 miles on the CanAm by March 1st. Now I can't even get it out of the garage, and even if the roads were clear, they've been too dirty, and the temperature has been too cold.

The first event for the Cobra is less than 4 weeks away, and I'm not sure I'll be able to get the trailer out without some serious shovelling.
Where we live in New England, normally there's so little snow, that the golf courses stay open all winter. So far this year, we've had over 7 feet of snow, and still more to come!!

Hello Jack,

Noticed a few things while looking at your photo pages:

If Amber is at the Pirelli dealer I'm ready to buy an additional set.

Looks like its been snowing up there.

You have a 1970 CanAm!

Your new shop looks like Heaven!

If I understand you correctly, you're saying that despite the snow, you'd like to take Amber to Heaven in my 1970 Ultima CanAm with a brand new set of Pirellis!!!
Am I correct?

Perfect. Now thats reading between the lines.

An idea for Rosen Racing: wheel arch "vents" made from aluminum and screen that may be riveted in the wheel arch vent.

Have thought about that, but didn't like the "riveted" look. The proper way to do the louvers would be a custom fiberglassed louver panel that could be cut and bonded in. Sounds like something for Mark Koch.
