Opening Day of baseball season is also my traditional opening day for the Porsche Season. Just a little too unpredictable here in Michigan for a March opener. Mine is a summer car with no winter tires which I store in a heated garage 20 miles from here. Taking it out any earlier than April is just a cruel tease. We'll be into the 20s-30s at night for at least 3 more v e r y s l o w weeks!
