If the nationals were held in summer this covo would be all about over heating cars, lack of shelter at the show and shine's, etc.
So just suck it up ladies :shh: :lol: .

You're probably right Trev, why would you want to get around in shorts and a t shirt drinking ice cold beers to cool you down when you can be wearing snow gear and pulling your numb lips off the top of a frozen beer :D :D :D :D :D :D
