Believe me, after meeting you guys and seeing the pics of the drive back, I wish I would have done just that. The only problem is I'd have been playing constant 'catch up' with you guys and your 'boost checks.'

Kevin,

I was happy and sad at the same time when I found out that Javier had bought your Turbo R. I was happy I got to see the car but sad that you sold it and happy again that Javier is the new owner... Hope to see you back soon.

Terry,

I believe I can see a few small birds in there and one pattern of 'bugs' looks suspiciously like a bald eagle. I knew your TT could fly!

Actually Paul,

You knew about this trip. Didn't you consider going, or the back is trouble still?

On the way back, our original route would have passed right by Ridgecrest. But the highway is still closed due to deep snow. We went all the way up to 88, and eventually came home on 50.

You would have enjoyed this trip. Theis is the crowd that you'd enjoy being around. Ruf is awesome place as well.

Youre right Pong I had the opportunity to go and the back was bad. BUT just seeing the fantastic pics you guys took and the company as you so rightly pointed out, makes me miserable that I missed out. Not to mention I love that country and its my favorite part of the USA (From Texas all the way to California including Utah, Idaho Wyoming Montana Arizona New Mexico et al.
A once in a lifetime event!!! Luckily you live closer to me than my mom so I can still hook up with you guys one day and go for a drive. Its time to hook and and hit Cambria again!!!! OR I will come up and just visit as you and I have discussed. The RUF USA headqtrs was reallys something to behold and for that I am sad.

Kevin,

Yeah, the first mod! The second mod is going to be the Ruf hood badge. Then the car will be complete. I don't see how I can improve your work. Here's one of my favorite pics I've taken. I posted it too small prior... now my avatar.
