    Crystal Cove 11/13/04... WHO'S COMING?

    I'll try some other cars this weekend. I think Vector W8 and the TechArt Porsche were fun last Sat. After the show, we raced those two cars on PCH. Vector was fast, but the 620hp TechArt Porsche was much faster... :)

    I'll try to bring something more unique for this weekend. WISH ME LUCK! (It might be something more rare than Vector W8)...

It's loud, fast, and white...it looks like a plain carrera so its hard to spot unless the engine is running. I'll post a pic of it later today...and I'll post a pic of its engine. What makes it so fast?...Renntech.

    What's blue Arab/Italian? The FX? That would be Asian(Brunei)/Italian... But no.... it's not the FX.

    But it has an Italian heart... :)

    You're right, my bad. I was trying to come up with something witty and missed the mark.

    Hmm.. Italian heart..supercar.. ultra rare.. I'll chew on this one for a while.

    Chris, it's an American exotic with an Itlian heart.

    What's that? It's VECTOR M12....

    My friend brought his Vector W8 last weekend and it was fun, so I'm bringing my other friend's other Vector. The M12 is even more rare than W8 - there were 17 W8s but only 12 M12s. They were made after the Lamborghini's acquisition of Vector, so they have Lambo engines (5.7L V12, 490hp).

    The M12s are much more sexier in design (more curves) compares to the W8s, less computerized instruments, less power (W8s had TT 620hp V8), and has a 6-spd. manual transmission (unlike the W8 with 3-spd. automatic). The design is by Jerry Weigert (the founder of Vector), and is based on his Avetech WX3 prototype.

    We are about 98% sure that the M12 will be at CC. And I am also trying to find another car I can bring the following week (one supercar a week's my new plan).

    Hope to see you all there!


    - Patrick



    * The car we're bringing is a black car... really beautiful...

    I will try to be there. Funny I thought I was supposed to go to New Orleans Thursday but I don't know how to read a calendar, so it is next week. Duh.

    This last couple weeks have flown by.

    Kevin,

    GREAT! Bringing your CS? If you wanna bring two cars (and need a spare driver), you know who to call. Heheh... :)

    Look forward to seeing you this Saturday!

    -Patrick

    * By the way, I saw you and your M3 last night (Wed.) on Foothill and Bensen. :)

    I honestly think someone should try to contact Jay Leno and get him to bring down something exotic to Crystal Cove (hmmm maybe a McLaren F1?). I think the variety of cars there EACH week is just amazing. Nowhere else in the world but Southern California.

    I'd love to see there:
    Pagani Zonda
    McLaren F1
    Koenigsegg
    any TVR
    Porsche 959
    Mucielago Roadster (hasn't been there yet, right?)

    Geeze, can't we have a Crystal Cove break? It seems like every week there are awesome, new cars showing up. I need a Saturday to sleep in! But the W12 is a car I've never seen, so it looks like I'm coming this week...
