Nicole, you did well. The speed was just right. No offroad excursions. No tickets. Enough to make the tires squeal once in a while.

Very, very fun, and I definitely look forward to the next one! Hey, where the heck was Matt? (edco)

What's all this talk of bottoming and sliding around? You all must have opened up quite a gap on Ron(or someone ahead of him) because I was right with him and it didn't seem that sketchy to me... Guess I hafta get up there where the action is next time.

Hmmm... Ron, maybe next time we will paint some bars on your back window & see if that helps... Maybe we can do that for Brian too...

Matt, you missed an excellent ride... see you at SITP!

I can appreciate that it does take time to process the pics down... takes me hours after a big event to put everything together. Still itching to see them though.

You weren't driving with her on the WAY TO the run. Damn I was hitting 120 on the 'Californiabahn' trying to catch up with them.
