This is the 5th year of the Drive and counts are steadily increasing each year.

Hahn Winery:
http://www.hahnestates.com/

Directly from here to the Baja Cantina Hot Rod Show: FREE. BBQ Dinner there is sub $15. Quite good for the $'s, includes a drink. Last year we saw Patrick Dempsey enjoying a beer with Michael Schumacher at one of the tables on the patio!

^^ Thanks, Jim

Only in Monterey do you roll out of a bar at 11pm and see a 918 Spyder parked in front. Great Weekend!

True, Monterey is its own world

Case in point: while carving curves near the Hahn Winery, we were surprised to see a new Mercedes happy to follow at the end.
Even more surprising during a random stop to re-group: it pulled over & the owner got out to meet us.
Turned out he recently bought a 1995 993 & was driving a rental.

He was in town to give a trophy at Pebble Beach's Concours d'Elegance
...because he's the Senior Editor of Road & Track magazine.

Only in Monterey!

Back to Thu's Hahn Winery run:

Another R Gruppe car that was also in the Carmel Concours & practically a clone of the above 911 went on Thu's Pelican run with us:

An uninvited Cayman, AKA "Bumper Rider," passed on blind curves, etc.
