Hey guys,
wish I was coming with you
I will be meeting a lot of you on Nov. 6th at Todd's. But, maybe there will be something before then where we can meet, shake hands and do a run. Again, sorry I can't come with you. Hope someone brings a camera...


Have fun.

in case anyone is concerned, we're both fine, but my baby isn't so great. She's over at Northstar vettes in Mountain View, solemnly awaiting inspection by the pros tomorrow morning.
Nice to meet you all... Hope you had a great cruise!

The Viper does not have turbos or nitrous on it. No solid dyno numbers yet.

Matt, It was pretty tragic seeing your vette hit the guard rail...a reality check for us all. Were you able to drive it home? It didn't seem too bad, or else i would have stayed rather than chase after the group.

Don't fret too much, cars crash on that road all the time, Dave and I witnessed a 993 porsche eat it there just yesterday.

I don't recall any car taking me. The closest car was a black Z06 with a bunch of stickers and numbers on it. We took off and I pulled. A second time he took off while I was in 5th gear and traffic ahead. Which car are you talking about? All the cars looked great out there. BTW I have a 5psi Roe supercharger.

It was great seeing all you guys lined up getting on 280 from 92. It was sure funny when a bunch of you broke off like fighter jets and came after me. I've met a bunch of you before on some of the cruises over to Santa Cruz, Etc. The black Z06 with the white on the hood was very fast. We ran twice. The first time I punched off in 3rd gear and went through 4th. I was ahead the whole time, but he was not far behind. He pulled alongside and we gave eachother thumbs up. He then took off while I was in 5th. I downshifted to catch up and ran out of room. Either way, nice car.
