Thank you all for putting this together. It was really great to meet everyone for the first time.

I'd love to do it again, but I need to restore my confidence first! A few sections of that drive really humbled me to say the least. It was a little scary at the time, but now I'm getting huge chills thinking back on it.

Steve, the pics and videos look great. You're pretty quick with the uploads.

Its amazing the kinda weather we are having compared to other parts of the country. I thank my lucky stars every morning. Driving a convertible 10 months a year sure is great therapy.

Thanks KT and whomever else helped in putting it together. I know i lagged today and i appreciate you guys waiting up for me. I actually passed you guys on PCH and went alll the way to Mullholland where i tailed back to catch up to you guys.

Kuni, KT, and DJ Sang, you guys rip. Great driving!!

Pete, good point. Everyone did a great job going through that last section. If you made it through there without too many problems, you did well. The run reminded me of Rallye Catalunya where the roads are twisty and gorgeous.

Great run! Tuna Canyon has got to be the best run in socal. One-way and newly paved. The best quote was from a lady we drove by at the top of Tuna... "Slow down! This isn't a racecourse! "

Thanks to the organizers and participants for making it happen. Tina had a great time, too. I told her to visit the board and say "Hi".

Looks like I missed out on a good one! I didn't get to sleep until after 7 AM Saturday night (Sunday morning). Good to know everyone had a blast and I hope we have another one of these runs sometime soon.

Classic! There was also some guy in a van on Latigo that was flipping us off and as I passed, I saluted him too

I don't know about you guys, but I was beat by the end of the day but I finally washed my car last night! I hadn't been that tired since I went kart racing a few months ago.

Geeze Lee, what (or who) were you doing up so late?
