Default Scenic Drive

I'm not sure that I have enough command of the English language to adequately convey the views from the long scenic drive today. Quite a few people were taking pics and videos, so I hope they will do justice. The views were breathtaking.

Here a few pictures I took today.

Unfortunately I don't have access to my own computer right now so the scaled pictures look pretty bad.

Doesn't look like near as many cars as NSXPO 2002... Is the participation down, or just not everyone there yet?

I live in the bay but unfortunately was too late with the registration. Anybody help or advice for a desperate last minute attendee?

Perhaps better planning on your part? You want to register after an event has already begun?

cf Pain job?? If somebody wants to "paint" Carbon fiber look on the body panel, it will be a painful job...

I suspect you never look at Carbon fiber before... oh well, if that's the case I won't blame you.

WOW!!! that car looks awesome. Call me very jealous as this was the look I paid Marga Hills to give me, for which they failed horribly. Seth you are a CF genius email me and lets discuss future plans for my car.

The car is all CF except for the doors, roof, and trunk lid. Seth says he's going to do the trunklid next.

This was pretty much sums up our reaction after the most excellent CHP escort from Comptech.

I think everyone in the caravan can agree that having the CHP shut down the freeway to let us on was priceless. Especially when they they escorted us all the way along HWY80 and were waving us along at quite a brisk pace on clear stretches of highway.
