It’s so hot! I drove the 914 into work yesterday with the top off and it was fine early in the morning. But driving home at 4pm I almost burnt my lips off doing 60 through the hot air (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) this will pass and we will have a great So Cal summer.

Finally!!!

You guys in SoCal got a taste of a typical North Texas summer. But you are only getting it for a week. We get it from May through September.

Now you understand why we fix the AC in the 914s instead of removing it. Third degree basket weave burns on the back of the legs ruin your whole summer......

Also why external oil coolers are a necessity.

I remember the 90F+ 90%+ humidity for a month or more on end that we used to get in downstate IL.

Don't miss it at all.

Clay, you can keep the N TX weather. The cost of living may be absurd around where I live, but at least we don't have to deal with that. (Though we have had tornadoes here in the time that I've lived here!)

The heat and humidity has been in mid to upper 90s here since April. We had no spring. Went from winter to summer in one week. Heat index is around 109. Not going away any time soon.

And I don't have to put my 914 in the garage during the winter either. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif)

I find my shovel quite a bit of fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Takes me 20 minutes to shovel 12K sq/ft plus 300' of driveway.

Officially it was 105 yesterday. I was out working in the garage from 7am to 1pm. Not a problem for me.
