Hello again, folks! The last drive didn't have many participants, but MAN, was it fun! I finally got a chance to break in the new car, and I'm very happy to report that it pushed through the corners at a very good pace. I was ready to go again, as soon as I got home, but alas, Tom insisted I wash my car's wheels, so it's had to wait. In any case, I'm going out again on Saturday, June 13th. Looking to do the big loop this time, and see what the King fire did to our beloved roads. Not quite sure what to expect when we go up there. No Loon Lake extension this time, as we're smack in the middle of camping season, but it'll be a real fun loop, with brunch at the end, of course. As always, we meet at Peet's at White Rock and Latrobe in EDH at 7:30, departing at 8:00 on the dot. I'm hosting a poker game that afternoon, but I'm anxious to get another drive in before my next camping trip. Hope you'll come out and join us!

The proposed route is here: goo.gl/frTRRD Admittedly, it's our longest route of the year. I can do a shorter route if everyone would prefer that. Google says it's 3 hours, 26 minutes. It's not. Since most of it's back roads, and it will be early enough that we avoid a lot of the traffic, I'd estimate we'll be at Mimi's (if that's where we end up for lunch, I haven't figured that part out yet) around 11:30, including a stop here and there to stretch our legs.

I'm trimming down the route just a bit, and ending at a MUCH better lunch locale (that I haven't been to in quite a few months, so I'm really salivating at the prospect of having it on Saturday). A route along the lines of this looks like what we're headed for: https://goo.gl/LzQ3pT which includes an amazing, twisty run up 193 from Placerville, plus the Taylor Road tunnel in Auburn. Fun stuff! Jay, Nate, Tom, Dave, Perkins? Any takers?
Anyone going to be around this weekend? I'd be up for a early morning 49/193 run and photo shoot Saturday or Sunday.
Hello all: I'm interested in this F430 from Sacramento Maserati- does anyone know the car or have any experience with the dealer? Any info is greatly appreciated. thanks in advance. http://maserati.niello.com/details.p...ceDesktop=true
Your link is bad. They have 3 430s for sale, 2 coupes and a Spider. If I were in the market for a 430, I would consider this car, in the same area and owned by an FChat member: 2005 Ferrari F430
I don't know the car but dealer is first rate! I have bought 2 ferraris from them over the past 10 years. Adam, Andrew are quality guys. If you want to get a second opinion on the car have a PPI done at Corfee Car Care in Sacramento. Eric the owner will give you unbiased PPI. PM me if you more info.
Tom - can't seem to make the link work to the individual car - I'll take a look at the car Salerno as well. Thanks.
Hey, Tom. Been a long time. Saw Orrie yesterday at a D&D event. We need to get together for a drive when the weather gets better. I'm working on a couple of things on the car.
Where and when are the regular Cars & Coffee meetups in the Sacramento area? I'd love to bring my 456 out but I can't figure out where to go. Thanks!
