    Okay guys, it has been a while since we've had a proper 'exotic' meet & drive--I think the last one was in the beginning of July (2nd I think). Anyway, I've been doing some 'road' research and came up with a really awesome route for a drive; one that isn't too long but is very exciting. Recently, it seems as if some of the people have become rather unenthused about going on drives however I want to change that to some extent.

    So how about it guys? As more people show interest I will reveal more details about the meet & drive such as the meeting place, date, time etc. I know some of you blokes have gotten the F430 since July so buck up and come on out of the dens. LOL. Let's have some fun.

    O yea, last but not least, the drive(s) are just cruises with some spirited driving--no showboating and/or racing.
    Cheers.

    The route involves mostly Los Altos Hills, Woodside etc..

    So how many people can we get? I guess the drives will be either a Saturday or Sunday morning.

    HAHAHAH! Vince, that was a good one!

    The meet and drive will be on Saturday, October 8th @ 8:30 A.M. We will leave for the drive at 9:00 A.M. The drive will last approximately 2 hours. The place to come is Rancho San Antonio in Cupertino. However, if people wish, we can meet at Stanford Mall as well. Please let me know and try to get other EXOTICS to come. Again, only exotics please; nothing against other cars but this is EXOTIC CRUISING!! The meeting place, as mentioned before, is still open so go ahead and come to a decision on that and post it. This is going to be a good one! Make sure you bring your cameras because there are PLENTY of photo opportunities on the drive!!
    Cheers.

    This should work for me, although that may change. I would prefer Stanford but RSA is fine if that's what the majority want.

    Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to make it. I'm having the car plastic-wrapped that day. ;-)

    Okay guys, so how many people are going to come? I need a 'head count' just to be sure it'll be worthwhile. Those of you who are interested in coming or are coming, please reply. Those who cannot make it are missing out but there'll always be a next time!

    I can't make it - both my exotics are in the shop (355 and Lotus Elan).
    Also, I'm curious to the route but 2 hours is a tad long.

    I'll be up on Skyline taking pictures for the 969 drive that morning - you guys should swing through the corner at the top of Windy Hill around 10am if you want some action shots of your rides (same place we saw you Vince)...

    There aren't enough people coming to the meet/drive tomorrow so I think I'll reschedule it so that more exotics can come. I will keep you guys posted as to when/where the next drive/meet will be. This is unfortunate but there's always a next time.

    In other words, TOMORROW's MEET/DRIVE is CANCELLED.
