Nice writeup and congrats on the car. I would love to do PCH one day but it's a long way from TN!

Sounds like a great trip. If you ever want to get together with another 993 owner, PM me, I'm in Seattle.

Good, because you should Just kidding -- it'll all work out. I am not completely out of the water yet... or is that in the deep-end? Not sure

Excellent write up, and though I've never met Chris in person (yet) he is our 993 mad scientist. Welcome to the asylum of us 993 nuts! Put some PS2's on that baby and it should ease your concerns with the wet roads.

Congratulations. You're making my wait for spring hard as I have a similar, but less scenic 1700 mile trip to make!

Is your car also waiting for you in LA?

Nice story!
Thanks for the show & tell... Now, watch out for that slippery slope.

That was a good read. Thanks.
That is a drive I will make one day, from BC to LA and back in the 993. Fun.

Great story and pictures.

You took a wonderful route back. I especially love the section between Fort Bragg and Willitz. I usually do it on my Triumph motorcycle but I plan a trip over that way in the p-car this summer.

Chris passed on a set of muffler bypases to me last year at no cost. He is definitely a stand up guy. I am sure the good karma will get you into your TT shortly.
