lets meet at Alice's then - and play it by ear on any driving thereafter - I think the PCA-GGR thing is "open "9:30-11:30" I'll plan to be there 10-10:30ish (not a morning person)

we can compare exhausts (Cargraphic hi-fo OAP + akrapovic slip on)

I have the Kline Inconel OAP & muffler; looks like we'll have a nice variety of exhaust brands out there.

I'll be out there around 10:00 also...anyone know if going straight up 92 West to Skyline will present issues with closures or road issues?

I *think* 92 is closed at 35 ... you should be ok, but I'd check that 1st

CORRECTION: looking at live traffic on google maps - 92 is now apparently open both ways

My self and @BabyNSX will be meeting up at my place around Dumbarton bridge in Fremont and then taking La Honda up if anyone else would like to caravan. Both of us are the more enjoy the drive in our cars rather than the "lets see how fast we can go on public roads" kind of drivers so if you are like us we'd love to have you join us!

If anyone wants to join send me a PM and we can coordinate.

meetup this Saturday at Alice's for the PCA-GGR "Boxster Brunch" (https://pca-ggr.org/event/boxster-br...stance_id=1314) - some of us will caravan up from the Park & Ride at 280S & 84W around 9:30 ... cya there or at Alice's ...

p.s parking is always a nightmare! and the vendors on the other side of 35 do not take kindly to Alice's customers parking in their lots - which is short sighted IMO given the amount of traffic they pull into the crossroads!

Jealous of you West Coasters, driving along the coast is a dream for an East Coaster like myself. Enjoy!

I’m tracking the weather and it looks like there’s a break in the rain between Friday morning and Saturday afternoon. As of now I’m still planning be there and meet up at Alice’s.
