Originally I was thinking GT3s so I can take a picture of lots of GT3s in one shot, but this is a free country and we are all car guys/gals so bring it.

I am hoping that people who have not been to a track day will show up so I can give them a DVD on what to expect from track days. Too many people with nice cars are missing track days do to anxiety. I would like to change that.

4porsch: I found a great drive recently that I am thinking of organizing in the next few weeks. Check this out:

Highway 33 may just be one of the greatest roads in SoCal. Getting there doesn't suck either.

Hope people show up to at least get a free DVD for them or a friend.

+1

you might get some running water on the road and some ice in the shaded areas if you go early in the morning so be a bit careful. some of the water crossings could be a bit muddy so garage queens beware.

you may also want to try Cerro Noroeste near Frazier Park. The road has fairly new asphalt and the road is equally as fun as Highway 33.

I used to meet a group every third Saturday and make this run. It is a fantastic route and there is a great breakfast house in Frazier. The road was very severely damaged from the rain storms a couple years ago and the event just died out.

I suggest that we post something and organize a meet at the Vons parking lot off of Seaward by 8:30am. Just minutes from 33, we can be in the thick of it before any traffic. Of course there will be the usual motorcycle riders who are up at the crack of the throttle to contend with.

LETS DO IT! Shall I post??

I'd be game to do it tomorrow after the Malibu meeting if anyone wants to go. I could sure use a good drive after this week at work
