SoCal RX8 SSXI Caravan - Los Cerritos Mall to SSXI

... in less than 2 mins

Time-lapse video accompanied by some crappy Photobucket music:




More time-lapse videos of the staging area. Good turnout and lots of rotories:

Cool stuff! I now know why there was an '8 going way slow to the left of the caravan a few times during the trip up there. Nice job.

Yeah, rollerbldes also commented on my "activities" in the SoCal Caravan thread: https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...postcount=1296

I can imagine their radio chatter: "Who the f**k is this as*h***?!?, over" ... squak... "dunno, but I hope he's not with us!, over"

LOL

I would have liked to see a time lapse of the GT-R and the folks that went over to check it. A lot of it was pretty funny! Lots of people had to stick their hands in the tail pipes.

Good meeting you again elf! We were the father son pair from Arizona in the Ti 8. You should have a time lapse lesson on how to clean road dirt from your car in there somewhere (not that I would want to see it!).

Or maybe I moved faster than I thought!

Hey, jeffe ... actually, saw some if that, but my camera batteries were all depleted by then ... I should've brought one more extra There was also a gray GT-R there too, nearer the RC racing area.

Just about everybody walked past that camera at one point or another, some lingered a little longer than others But I missed out on getting the camera pointed at the back end of rollerbldes car, where the donuts/drinks were at --- that would've been amusing to watch.
