@ Alex, as a relatively new GT3 owner with a stock car, would it be possible to put a GT3 up on a lift and have you point out some of the possible exhaust and suspension upgrades? If not, no problem. Cheers, Peter.

FYI, very foggy on the Coast this morning. No telling what Skyline/Alice's is like, though. Many times foggy here, sunny there.

Is there a designated route yet? I'm hoping I might be able to meet en route once folks leave SharkWerks. I'm near 101 and 84. Is the plan to take 92 from SharkWerks?

Sorry we couldn't stay with the gang for lunch. We have grandparent duty this afternoon/night, so need to get over to Pleasanton.

Thanks to Sharky for hosting this, and to bmwtye and mooty for instigating it (and for inviting the pastry chef, wonderful!). Good to see "old" friends again, and to meet new friends.

I wanted to thank Alex, Dan, and the rest of the Sharkwerks crew for hosting the event today. It's one thing to provide exceptional customer service, but what really stands out is your guy's genuine care for the community. Everything from the meetup at Sharkwerks to the generosity at Alice's, I cant thank you enough and speak highly enough of you guys.

As Mooty and I were saying, I guess we all need to get motor builds now to show our appreciation

Thanks to everyone for coming out and making it a safe and enjoyable day and drive. How many of you have rocks inside your car from that one segment of the drive

And nothing like cyclists bombing down the middle of the road full speed towards us.

Look forward to getting everyone together again soon.
