The fires in Sonoma county has caused a serious amount of smoke to drift all throughout the bay area, I decided to make my way up into the mountains to get away from it for awhile and take some photos.



The amount of smoke is unbelievable. The sun is completely diffused by it.



I took a photo of the car in this exact same spot awhile back when there was nice fog cover during the sunset. Still makes for a great photo when it is smoke.. (the air at this area was actually pretty clear)



There is actually a little cliff side near this area of the road that I have always wanted to climb up and get a photo and I happened to park in just the right spot. I didn't free climb a cliff, around the back there is a steep little trail that goes up to the top. Only mildly treacherous.



Hung out for a bit after doing some driving waiting to see if any interesting cars came by.



A 911 Targa 4S appeared, and I didn't have high hopes, but luckily for me it was a local that actually knew how to drive.



As the sun dipped down toward the horizon and below the smoke, it turned this crazy diffused shade of read. I spend 2-3hrs enjoying the relatively empty mountains during the day then made my way home.

Maybe if you bring an S2000 along!

It is very likely that we will be waiting for the 2nd S2000 to appear in these pages.

No major updates just some photos and things here and there.















Changed the diff oil after putting a few thousand miles on the original oil to clean up everything after running everything in.







Instagarm sponsored posts got me with this one. Really nice prints of tracks around the world. Picked up a few of my favorites.









I saw that Sonic made a really nice small and light floor jack that is perfect for taking to the track. Only ways 23lbs (compared to 50lbs for my larger Arcan floor jack). It has a little bit lower max height but the min height is lower and is perfect for my uses having to take everything down on a cart. And just that much less weight and space when taking stuff to the track.

I've been wanting a true lightweight jack. Living in an apartment with only stairs sucks!

BTW, will you be attending Laguna next Sat?!
