The Exotics at Redmond Town Center Thread

I ran into to Tony (from Desert Fire) yesterday, he's excited about doing the brunch for everyone. He loves this event and loves supporting everyone.

If you see him, make sure to say hi! And I'm sure he'd love a ride sometime, we should try and include him if there's a drive that's going to be happening.

 

I talked with Ty yesterday and he said that the camcorder they mounted on the motorcycle officers fuel tank fell off. Were there any other motion shots taken at this memorable event?

 

Looking forward to it! If the past couple of weeks have been any indication, the next couple of months are going to be great.

It will be fun to get to see everyone again--see you all on Saturday!

 

After not being able to make the last two I plan on being there. Catch up with all my F-chat friends.

I hope Greg comes out, I would love to see his F50.

 

I heard that he sold it last year. Maybe he'll bring his 250 GTO out.

 

I plan on being there.

Seeing Greg's 250 GTO bearing down on you in your rear-view mirror whilst giving it some stick at Pacific Raceways will really get your attention, lemme tell ya!

 

Or his latest acquisition the exceedingly rare and highly coveted ERA with 1.5L engine sporting forced induction by supercharger

nice video BUT


Good thing the driver didn't cause an accident. Very dangerous with oncoming traffic like that. While I love to see great vids of exotic cars, it is not worth it with foolish and irresponsible driving. Not cool. Don't do it again (please). the driver doesn't even yield to oncoming traffic. Just not worth it when someone can get killed.

That probably has something to do with the fact it was a motor officer if memory serves. They tend to get away with that.

 

Very Correct. The camera was mounted on a Police Motorcycle who was escorting the group of 30 of us to the Salish Lodge. They would drive up the road and block intersections and wait for us to all get safely through. They would then speed past us to the next intersection and do it again. Tom can correct me if I am wrong, but when you are under a police escort, oncoming traffic has the obligation to move to the side of the road and get out of the way.

I still say he's an idiot. I think the funeral escorts are stupid too. He's making others drive onto the shoulder at speed & risking his life for what????

 

Well, I apologize for speaking (writing) before I understood the whole story. However, I do agree with the above that it is dangerous to make the oncoming traffic get over to the shoulder.

Again, I apologize.

I guess I would be a bad cop. I would let the exotics go if they were exceeding the speed limit (within reason) but would hammer the people driving into other lanes and hot-dogging---- being dangerous.

sorry, mike

 

It's pleasing to see these cars on the road.

Does it start at 8 or 8:30?

 

The event begins at 8:30 am, but folks start coming at 8:00.
Hope to see you there.

I plan on attending and unvieling my freshly completed 2001 Lamborghini Diablo in Pearl White with GT seats!!

 

Looking forward to it.

 

That means I gotta make sure I come out. I might even bring my newly finished Audi S6

 

If my frickin car was here so would I.

 

It is, I just have not decided if I want to take this stunning interior out and save it for me prior to giving the car to you!!

You know that line from Monty Python's 'Live of Brian'? What is the Emperor's name? "Biggus Dickus". There are times buddy. Especially since I just let you use my SLR for the weekend so your Elfs had some class to ride in instead of on.
