    There's a silver SLR tooling around hillsborough a lot. I don't know who it is and never inquired.

    Red 308 GTS Sunday afternoon in Folsom, parked in front of Michael's. Plate 4REART. I like the wheels; sweet looking 308.

    10 minutes later a silver Bentley Flying Spur driving in front of Ralph's supermarket in Folsom. I almost scraped a shopping cart with my rubber-necking.

    That was mine Ernie. You drove past me as you drove up to my car in the parking lot. I met you on one of your drives this summer. I think this is the first time I've been spotted on this thread! Feels great!

    While I'm stopped at the light, today around 3PM, red Mondial (w/ nice exhaust) going up Serrano hill in El Dorado Hills. He hit 1st and 2nd pretty hard, sounded nice! Sorry I couldn't rev my engine as you passed (because the old poeple next to me might not have appreciated it!)

    Watch out for CHP on that hill if you read this...they are hiding on the side streets lately!

    Actually must be a real jerk, cuz I haven't been to stanford mall today. :D

    Oh, maybe it was me if it wasn't parked. I took sandhill from 280 to El Camino around 1.30ish or 2 to get over to Embarcadero.

    hey Ernie, thats me. i know about the CHP, we got the newsletter the other week. funny thing though with all that HP & Tq top of second is really screeming at 45mph (tongue in cheek) haha.
    i'm suprised though with all my driving around I'm not spotted more often. 3k miles in the last 2 months.

    i have the TUBI with test pipes and will be converting the CIS over to CArbs and lumpy cams in the next few weeks, looking for more burble and go...

    Today at around 5pm: 360 Spyder with the top down.

    Don't know what the color is called, but it was a non metallic red darker than rosso corsa with cuio interior I think.

    Silver Aston Martin DB9 with SVAG frame on Saratoga Sunnyvale in Saratoga, about 2PM coming back from the BBC lunch. That car looks good from the rear, can't think of why the AM Rapide rear looks so soft in comparison.
