Most all of the runs I have been on whether organized by me or someone else start NLT 8 am for several reasons.

The later in the day there are pickups towing boats thus causing slow downs. Just a few advantages of leaving early. I don't one advantage for leaving later in the morning at 10am - 12pm. But hey it's just my opinion. :tup:

I know the feeling, lately been very tired in the morning, must be allergies kicking in. :tup:

ValidusVentus 02-22-2014 08:20 PM

I didn't even look at the time, I'd be lying if I said I had something better to do on a Saturday morning. (Sleep doesn't really factor in when it comes to the car) ... ok it does... but it doesn't.

FEB 23 - Sunday

Napa Day Drive
8:30am - Meet and greet
9:30am - Leave for drive

Starbucks
1450 Travis Boulevard,
Fairfield, CA 94533

The plan is meet people in Fairfield, loop to napa, lunch, photos at the vineyard, then back home.

************************************************** ********

Caravan from Sac will meetup at the Chevron station just before the Yolo Causeway.

7:45am - Meet
8:00am - Depart

Should be a fun ride with Lambo's, Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, and some exotics.

I only hate mornings when a part of them is going to work. :thumbsdown:

ValidusVentus 02-23-2014 03:40 AM

Damn. I completely didnt notice the post by ZForce about the run and thought we were talking about our Z run. So... can I get a spot or is it too late. I am going to go ahead and wake up early and check this.

Edit: And not quite 5 hours later... on the way, thanks Zforce.

Wasnt expecting to be held to my word quite so quickly... this is rough lol.

How was the cruise? Put up some pics!

ValidusVentus 02-24-2014 01:58 AM

It was actually pretty sweet, I cant think of too many things better than chasing a McLaren MP-4 12C through the hills of northern California on a cool sunny morning. This happened, and it was good. Got it all on the GoPro, it was a blast.

I've never put up photos on the net anywhere besides Facebook, I suppose now is as good a time as any. Any free sites?

All good, I was up until 2:30 am the night before. You made it with some time to spare.

Don't know what happened to fairz, never heard back from him after my PM, left phone # also.

Yes it was a BLAST, about 35 cars, 2 Lambos, a McLaren, and several other cool cars, the rest was made up of BMW, Porchse and a few others. Perfect day, I was behind the Lambo for some time and then him behind me. Scraped a bit, so I dropped back to tail gunner. Still had fun and could see a line of 35 cars going up the hill.

Nate was playing the gunny sack yesterday with a slow moving car in front and we got to do our quarter mile drag at the entrenace to the winery, pretty cool, I finally got to hear my Fast Intentions exhaust from another car moving. Pretty mean sounding. :tup:

Photobucket and Google (Picasa) are popular photo databases to upload photos. :tiphat:

ValidusVentus 02-24-2014 10:21 PM

I really want to see some of the pics and the videos from the winery.

By the way, anyone heard from Myotorsports lately? Cant seem to get in contact with him and want to get my rear MX72s back from him temporarily (they are currently structural component of an overhead rack in his garage lol).

Thru email, this one was orginally scheduled the same day as our delta run (first scheduled date) then they canceled and I did not see the email until a day before the run. I will try to give some more advence notice in the future. I try to push them out as soon as I receive them, but sometimes they got lost in junk mail or in my large inbox. :tiphat:
