    Great turnout! Nice to see Arun's beautiful 360 CS with great sounding pipes, along with the return of the Murcielago Roadster. Had a great time filming the drive afterwards from the motorcycle. Hope you guys had a fun trip after the Vista Point!

    Pictures are going up at:

    Good turnout today. Lovin' Arun's 360CS and that Pantera! I think my ears are still recovering from the exhaust demonstration. :)

    Oh and I didn't take any pics this time...forgot my CF card. :(

    Hey it was great coming out today and meeting with all of you! I had a great time and was finally able to bring the 'blue whale' (as I'd call it...or perhaps a shark??LOL) to the meet. The drive afterwards was FANTASTIC!!

    Luis: You are the craziest yet most skillful driver I've EVER seen in real life. It was just fabulous driving along with you--that tunnel pull is in HD!!! we got it.. and it was great!!.. LOLOL..

    Dan & others, you guys missed out.. next time, make sure to come along.. I can't wait to drive the car again!

    On a side note.. let's avoid big highways next time shall we? (hint hint!!!!)

    O Alvin.. nice shots man!!

    The "sound off" is going to get us kicked out of there.

    I can tell you from Ducati Night at Santana Row that they don't take kindly to noise, and Ducati Night is at a time when no one living upstairs is likely to be asleep. A very nice San Jose police officer gathered everyone around once and basically said be cool or the higherups will force me to be a ***** and start checking for off road only accessories, isuuing tickets, etc. He said he didn't want to do that, and we didn't want him to do that. And he's right.

    And that's was with 75 guys buying overpriced pizzas at a Santana Row restaurant, bringing in $$. I think this meet shows a lot less direct income potential to the merchants even if we all drop $3.50 at Peets. That will make management a lot less enthusiastic about being accomodating.

    Don't get me wrong; I love everybody out there. And I know we're all excited to show off our cars. But once the revving starts, it's difficult to stop it. When someone wants to hear my exhaust, I offer them a ride. That way I can crawl out of SR, then romp on it.

    You two guys could have a dance team- Sal & Dean!

    And you bring your own chairs? Where did you guys fit those or should I not ask?
