Yeah, we went snowboarding yesterday and on the way up found a mountain road that's still snow covered and designated for shared use (snowmobiles). I'd been tinkering with the vmax and immediately got the itch to test it out. So this morning, May 30 at 7am...

According to Google Earth this is at 4700 feet.

I left my wife sleeping and went alone (already put her sled in storage - doh!) so I was lucky to get a shot of myself at all. Yeah the snow looks horrible but it was already pretty slushy at 7 and the Vmax ripped it up. This is exactly 25 miles from my house and I used the Civic to pull the trailer, so it was a pretty inexpensive little run. Well worth it, I might do some tuning and go back tonight or tomorrow morning.
