Default New Years Day drive.

I found this link on the Solo2 site. Looks like Karen and I are going to go. We are going to start at the North Hollywood site. All cars are welcomed. That's my understanding.

Hey Steve......Happy New Year buddy

This sounds a lot like a canyon run (thought you didn't do this anymore ).......Encinal and Decker are 10 minutes from my house and are very tight and twistie

It was pretty cool until those 2 Porsches got into an accident. I guess one of them is a rare RS. He was not too happy

I pulled up and saw a Porsche in the gravel on the opposite side of the road with the passenger door hit. Pulled over and found this other Porsche the RS with big L/F fender and front end damage. Heard the first Porsche lost it and the RS t boned him.

I'm back too. Karen and I only did half the ride. She gets car sick even when she's driving. Ran over a rock and put a few good dents under the car. The RS was coming up the hill when the other Porsche lost control coming down. Typical canyon run.

Z28STYLE23 You have nice car. Karen want's it.



See you guys at the track.

Steve

Second part. We had to park in the far corner of the lot. Then after the drivers meeting you pulled out of your parking spot while we were still standing there. We didn't get to leave the parking lot until 15mins after you.

Ah that sucks, would have been nice to meet you. I'm surprised I didn't see your car. I usually have radar for vettes.
