So as some may know I was in SoCal last week on 'business'... racing a car in a competition at Autoclub Speedway in Fontana. I was under some pretty heavy time constraints and didn't have a vehicle of my own to travel in so I couldn't meet up with any of you... a shame, I know.
But on Saturday we had a failure on the car and DNF'd so we packed up, dropped the race trailer, and headed for Malibu beach.
I took very limited pictures, but I must say that the Porsche per Capita on PCH through Malibu is ridiculous. At one point we were counting the Porsche-to-Prius ratio ... In one stretch of PCH I counted 27 Priuses (Priii?) and 21 Porsches.
If you were on PCH between the Santa Monica Pier and a few miles north of Malibu beach area beach on saturday I probably passed you by. A few specific cars I can remember:
- A red 928 S4 / GTS, late 80's to 90's car, with the black rear wing. Parked at a place and later saw driving down PCH at the Will Rogers beach area (this is where I was walking around)
-A black 944 S2 convertible parked outside a place on PCH north of Las Tunas beach area.
- twenty five or so 996's and 997's. Various models. 1 or 2 997 turbos.
- An early 911, '65-'73, tannish brown in color.
Any pelicans who live near the beach in that area?
I had a great time, I'd love to visit the are again some time.
I didn't take a lot of pics unfortunately.
