    Silver 308 yesterday getting off 880 on the 237 ramp in Milpitas. Looks like a ham radio guy by the plate. I don't think I've ever seen this 308 before. I would have remembered the plate, I think.

    Today (July 29) 880 North between Coleman and First Street at about 11:30, very shiny Red 430 Spider on the side of the road along with an all white Caprice (? Don't know for sure) with stars on the doors and a light bar on top. Drivers appeared to be exchanging paperwork. Probably dyno charts or a 10-99 application or something. ;)

    SB 85 in Sunnyvale around noon today a red Miura. I don't think I've ever seen a Muira actually driving on the road except right in front of Concorso Italiano. You can really just drive those things around town, apparently!

    Wow, I love that car! Almost as much as my Scuderia!

    Nice to hear that people are actually driving them.

    Oh, and how is the food at Ventana?

    Talked to a very vice fellow, he said his name was Loyd, driving the Murci at the Chevron gas bottom of Woodside on Sunday noon. The V12 Murci sounded awsome starting up. I(we) was on my r6 doing the usual Sunday run to Alice/La Honda/Pescadero/stage for lunch. Also saw a nice black F430 heading back to Woodside. At the end of the day I saw a red F430 spyder on 280 near Bascam going toward Sf. I thought he was Abal 996? so I waved at him and he waved back.

    Good ride and good day too, seeing those awsome cars getting their legs streched out on the backside of the mountain!
