The run was quick did Ortega (74) both ways, some nice twisty parts, but those darn motorcycle guys are crazy. No other P cars seen.

A few vanity pictures

Great pics! Looks like you had a good time. I'd really like to do a So Cal run with some pelicans sometime soon. You interested?

Great! When, where, etc...? I could potentially do something tomorrow (Sun.) or next weekend. If you like, you can PM me and we'll organize something.

That Targa looks so f'ing hot, sounds like a nice ride. My car is still in a bag waiting for nice weather, Michigan sucks.

I should move. I took a local drive last weeked,. 114 miles, 3 turns in total and nothing spectacular.

This state is flat and around here all roads seem to have been laid oput in perfect rectangles.

No go on mothers day, and the following week I am out in the desert.

Maybe we should look at doing in the first of June. Do you want to post a message and see who else we can get?

Is that a fender lip stripe on your left front tire?

If you are asking if the front tire is rubbing, no it is the way the tires came. The rear drivers side was under hard turns

I can now see the rubbing on the rear. The tires are different; the stripe fooled me.
