    We'll probably have at least 8-10 cars from the East/Midwest join the caravan. Heading out tomorrow - see you guys in a few days!

    Video of Hwy 229. I think Dave said this stretch is 6.5-7 miles. You just don't get the sensation of speed and elevation change on video. The road is an amusement park ride.

    WOW Nice of Dave to wait for you. I am in awe of his speed through those roads.

    whereabouts is that stretch?

    Are you guys going to hit Prefumo Canyon Road? It is about 10minutes from the hotel.

    Here is a link to some photos:

    North of 58, east of 101. I've also got an 18 minute vid of Hwy 58 west of Taft with 3 unknown cars that closely resemble mine, Rob's and Dave's and includes flat out straights, twisties, hi-speed sweepers, etc. I'll try to post it when I get home.
