Whats to contemplate...get off your butt and go. Not a big decision. And to respond to stealth fox...were not meeting in a parking lot at Denny's and looking at cars. We are going to be experiencing our cars on an aggressive drive. If thats not your thing, hope you enjoy looking at your car in the garage. Just mad that you guys cant get out of your mindset that things are too far away, or the I don't know attitude. Try things once and then make a decision. Its not like I'm asking you to take some drug....anyways. I guess I'm just frustrated at work and am taking it out on you guys, sorry for that.

It is well worth the drive out..I'll leave it at that.

Kwescott... I think you have to be mindful of some of the owner's age... some of them are still in High school. Gas prices suck for them, and on top of that they may have to ask their parents permission. 50+ miles for them is a huge deal... :P

Whoa, you have an Rx-8 to drive and you don't even have a license yet... wow That must be one of the first...

But ya, the driving distance may not be good for you anyhows, new drivers shouldn't go ***** out on the distance driving. My friend crashed 1 week after getting his license driving to Vegas. He thought he could handle it, but BAMN, wasn't experience enough for the miles.

Hey, at least you don't sound like some of the other snotty kids that get the RX-8 and claim they "worked" to get the car. You know your dad "can" help you out, or you can get it yourself... it's a good start.

What's your first car? Mine was a Dinky Civic my parents bought me, always was grateful for any type of car in HS, even though I wanted an RX-7 ... :D

Would love to see it. The infamous MikeB said he would show. I think we should all bring our famous MikeB quote and will tape it to his windshield

I'll be coming again...this time with my digital camera to take some shots of our cruise. My co-pilot got some good practice in, in taking shots from the passenger seat on our San Bernardino cruise last week. I was also thinking that maybe I could cruise ahead of the pack, park along the side/shoulder, and get some as each of you pass. I was noticing that most of the shots we got from last weekend, were rear or side shots. It would be nice to get some front shots as you slide around some of these corners. Would love to get some shots of the body leaning to the side and the tires gripping the pavement on those corners. Ill be doing a car wash today in preparation. I'm definately getting excited and am hoping there is a better turnout this time.

How many are committing, and actually going to come?

Another request, maybe we could plan to eat at Neptunes this time, to try it out since we went to Howies last time. Just my requests...

Weather looks like it will be a great day.

How "far" are we planning to drive... and time frame. If it isn't the entire day, I can make it.
