Juan,

If you can drive to Pescadero for a day drive, Monterey/Carmel is about the same amount of time. You'll enjoy the drive!

pescadero = about 300 miles for the day (there, back)


carmel = about 500+ miles, and probably an overnight stay......




i *MIGHT* make carmel, but i really doubt it.

oh well, that'll clean up the playing field for you guys. wont have a 951 to show you guys up..... ( )

We make that drive all the time and will do it again next Sunday for the races at Laguna Seca. (2 hrs each way) You probably couldn't keep up with these real Sharks anyway.

Hey all -

I can't make it this weekend cause I'll be Thunderhill Fri-Sun. There's a chance I won't go but that will only be because I won't have my car back yet.

Have fun & drive safely though.

Juan: When are you going to quit lugging down that turbo Kia thing and get a shark.You know that you need at least 8cyl. to tote that big butt of yours around. Gerry

So, looking at the poll, we would have four participants on Sunday, and three on Saturday... Hmmm

Dennis: If you don't go to the track, why don't you give me a call? There is always someone you can ride with. Worst case it's me...

Nicole: This is the way most polls go. Nice of you to offer options, but probably better if you just pick what works best for you. We can google map routes and work on that offline.

I can do Saturday, but an busy Sun. Hopefully it won't be as hot as the last Devek drive in Napa. My AC was broken then as well (different problem now, of course!).

THanks Nicole. If you guys go on Sunday, I may take you up on your offer.

Juan, Mark Robinson has an '86.5 turbo car for sale right now. Rapid transit system and the best early bodied year in my not so humble opinion. If I had the bucks, I would snap it up.
