    Good one john.
    The one at the mall keeps the gun under the seat rather on a tripod.

    In Baton Rouge they are a rare site (the civilian ones), unless you go to the Hummer dealer. Even there they are getting rare though, with the production shut down.

    Agreed, there used to be a black one here in New Orleans that I would see quite frequently. License plate said, POLITIX if I remember correctly.

    Ask Richard about catching some air today in the McLaren after the drive :D


    Had fun meeting up with you guys despite driving the junker. I literally had concerns about the front bumper coming off on the spillway on the way back, lol.

    Seeing and hearing this car in person today reminded me of just how incredible that vehicle truly is.

    Oh, and if Richard is ever in your car word is that he likes to pull the E-brake...even in a McLaren :)

    Man, you aren't doing me any favors! We had a blast on the way back. The in-flight movie was very good, they were showing a specific scene from Ferris Bueller ;)

    Here a couple of pictures! Good to see those of you who made it out!

    Black NSX in Alexandria. Not very exotic or fast, but marginally better looking than the other Honda offerings...;)

    Baton Rouge continues to make case for greatest exotic car capital of the US. Today, a green Murcielago Roadster and Red 360 Spider. Both within miles of a sleeping Enzo and McLaren F1.

    Incredible!
