You call, but I'd worry about hauling my car on bad roads filled with idiot drivers who don't know how to drive on snow and are likely to either wipe out in front of you or into you.  They're telling us maybe 10-15" by tomorrow and everything has been postponed.  But then again you don't have to be there until the weekend.

Hmm.. tough call.  I'd probably decide on the side of caution then take a chance.  Rick has a very good point about OTHER drivers.  Let us know what you decide.

I can check in on Wed. or Thurs  if there is some crazy break in the weather i can c me doing it but the OTHER drivers is my main concern .
I dont have far to drive but I just cant c the point in it I just cant imagine many others wanting to chance it either...maybe the show circuit people ....what a crazy time to have a show.

The other catch is the show is over on Sunday & u dont have achoice u MUST get your car out no matter whats going on outside !

All of this crap will be over by the weekend.  The roads should be clear by then.  Using an open trailer......I would think twice about it as what ever is left on the roads will be on your car.  A close trailer would be best.

Good luck at the show.
