Anyone want to drive a 911 cab from Reno to Orange CA?

Obviously ya needs a license, ya need to be able to drive a stick, I'll pay gas and munchies and toss in some variables.....

Looking at the end of the month......gotta keep it under a 100......

I'm strangely intrigued...

CA route 4 from South Lake Tahoe is the finest piece of twisty empty road I have ever seen. Period!

Are you coming back to SoCal?

If you're still looking I'd love to pilot that beauty south on US 395...with maybe a quick side trip up (and down) Tioga Pass

Oh Joe bob, if I only could... I think I would look best in it. And I would treat her nice. And I would love to make that drive. If only... Sigh.

With all the interest, you could have sold raffle tickets.

Cool. With a little more notice I'd have flown out from Jersey. Always wanted to go to Reno, and my cab is the only car I've sold that I miss driving.......

Do I see a business opportunity here? Fly & tour vacations......
