You're right though... you shouldn't have to beg. Hopefully he'll have a blast and be driving with us next time.

I liked that posting.

Our last drive together was the warmup for this and taught me what not to do.

This will be a fun one... hill climbs, curves, straights... I'm excited just thinking about it.

Looking forward to meeting all that show. The Mrs.'s and I are in Lambertsville looking out over the Delaware 2 blocks from the meeting spot. We actually have room looking down over the car in this huge empty lot at the Lambertsville Station Inn. Just had diner and drinks, now have a nice wifi connection , life is good - car ran great for the 90 mile run down here - except that most of my dash is non-operable - thanks to my indy shop for trying to change the gauge bulbs !

Very windy, mild temps, clear skies for now and LOTS AND LOTS of Officers on Rt 202 and in Town !!!! Be AWARE. Just getting on 202 from NY - one is sitting behind a retail store and the pick up guy is 1/2 block away at the gas station for an easy pick !! - X50 did notify me - Ka Going to look over the route somehat and crash

Glad to hear that you made it safe and sound. 202 is an interesting drive.



See you in around 7 hours.

Oh, no. Say it isn't so.... I'm just back into town and thought I'd check on tomorrow's drive. It looks like a beautiful morning, I'm jealous!

Totally understand why it was changed, hopefully I'll get in on the next one. Hope it's a great drive for everyone!

Sorry you didn't make it. Many thanks to all those that did. we had a blast. I'll post photos later once I've gotten them off my camera.

I'm still running on rush from all those curvy roads.

Very nice shots. The drive was great guys!! I guess my only gripe would be it was an hour too short. It seemed to be over pretty quickly. The roads were great, the scenery was great. We should do it again, very soon.

I agree, I could have gone for another hour. The problem I had was the most tend to be unenthusiastic for drives more than 70 miles, so I tried to keep it as close to that as I could. We can do a longer one next time.

Glad you enjoyed the drive - great to meet everyone!

Let's aim for another in June or July. I'm open to suggestions on the location and roads, so get your ideas in and we'll make it happen.
