Car Details:1988 IROC-Z, custom interior from the 90s.
As my IROC is my daily driver, I've been er... exploring the finer points of her handling lately.
Left work the other day after working late, and after scraping ice of the car for 10 minutes, proceeded to pull out of work and onto the road in a slightly sideways fashion... :lol:
The road was empty, I should point out.

Anyone else still driving theirs while there's 'traffic chaos' falling over bits of the country?

I drove my 77 a few times in the snow over the last few years. ..

In the 7 years I had my IROC that was my daily, so was driven in all conditions... most memorable was the drive to Austrian alps back in 1997. Stayed there a month, and used most days ... my first time driving abroad too..

Haha. You'd have thought after driving 1000 or so miles on the wrong side they'd have worked that out.. :D
I'm in Val d'Isere every Monday at the moment. ..

Car Details:1986 Camaro, bought into Spain by me in 1993.
305 replaced by a 355, 750 Demon carb, RPM AirGap intake, Brodix heads, Hedman Hedders, 3" Flowmaster exhaust.
Wheels are Summit aluminium 5 spokes, tyres are 245 rear 225 front BF Goodrich.
B/M transmission, battery relocated to the rear, GoodMark 4" cowl steel hood.
Location:Spain East Coast
Drove my 78 Camaro from Wolfsburg to Lutterworth twice.
One journey was both ways on snow but the car never gave me any trouble.
It was on original skinny rubber, which helped.
To ease the boredom I was keeping the car in the tyre tracks of the car in front.
