Default Nice day for a spirited drive

Decided to go on a drive through the twisties with a friend down to PCH.

Mountain roads were clear and free of trucks,Prius's and station wagons

We had a great run. Photos follow.

We had no deep sea driving , but since it was a nice day,lots of bikini's along PCH(Pacific coast hwy)

His Esprit is an 89 with a few mods(chargecooler added and other mods).

We did not swap cars due to the fact that I own a 93.5 Esprit, and he also is a Pcar owner. We each picked the car we wanted to play with for the day.
A quick pick of our cars from a previous drive. Mine's on the left.

I went to Chiricahua yesterday as well. US 186 is an epic drive. Constant crests and almost entirely empty. I succumbed to urge of going fast on the way back. Hit 120 mph before a turn came up.
