Bring it up to Boston and yer buddy BosTTon will put the car through it's paces while you are gone (keeping the engine occasionally warm/hot and happy). You might be missing a serious amount of rubber on the tires but what the heck, you wanted new tires anyway, right?

VAROOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!

if you have power, maybe a trickle charger. also, tires will have flat spots so you might consider putting it up on jackstands.

cheers
