Looks like you & your brother had a great time. Thanks for sharing.
 
In the summer after 8th grade, I missed graduation to go on a 6500 mile road trip in my family's '90 Ford Aerostar from NJ to CA and back that saw several of the sites you depicted (Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Vegas). We hit dozens of other tourist attrations on the way. I felt (and still do to some extent) that the hightlights of the trip were seeing two F40s driving the streets in CA:tongue: and a caravan of Vipers outside of Detroit, lol. My other memory of Detroit was the sound of gunshots as we walked back to our hotel from a Tigers game :eek:

I'd love to take a trip like this again as an adult. I'd appreciate it so much more...especially in the NSX instead of an Aerostar.:biggrin::wink:

very nice! those pics tell a lot about your trip and shows that the nsx can take on miles and miles and still give you the piece of mind that honda should. btw, that pic with the speed limit of 80 is :eek:

wish that was the limit on the 15 from socal to vegas.
 
Great pics. I love the way your car looks btw...but you knew that!

As another posted...the day I graduated college, I skipped the graduation and took off on a road trip to Colorado from Buffalo. Great memories.

I'm looking forward to taking 2-3weeks off one of these coming summers and just lose myself out on the road.
 
That was awesome! Ive been thinking about doing the same thing this summer. Those pics are great motivation.


BTW - LMAO at the dream car rental. :biggrin:
 
Great pics and thanks for sharing......I would like to do that one day when I get a chance.
 
looks like fun, I went on a roadtrip from utah to michigan when I picked up my nsx and it was a blast

I really want to take another roadtrip to the southwest once I move back to oklahoma
 
Wish I knew when you were going to to Universal... My brother works there.
Nice pics though.

added some more pictures

out of all those places, which place was your favorite?

umm.... I enjoyed everything a lot. I loved the rides on top of the tower in Vegas, they weren't the best rides, but they offered the best experience so far.
We talked to the owner and he said around May 15ish their coming out with a need ride were your strapped into a harness and you walk off the edge of the tower and drop 900 ft:biggrin:, which will make me go back next year for sure.

But out of everything Yosemite Park and Grand Canyon were my favorite for the views that they offered; the tunnels at Yosemite, the waterfalls, everything was beautiful.

I really like your shirts in the 6th pic! :biggrin:
Great pics! Looks like an awesome trip!

ya. I bought my brother like 4 or 5 for his birthday and that's the only white shirt I own also, figuring it was going to be a hot day that's what I opted for. :D

you met Robert Knepp from Prison Break!? that's tiiiiight! one of my favorite shows on tv.

how did you meet him!? did he tell you anything about prison break!?

It was the world premiere of Transporter 3 and he was walking down the red carpet, we called him over to take a picture with us. Didn't really get a chance to talk to him or anything, but he seemed like a really nice guy.
 
Holy shit! Thats T-BAG!

Lol... Awesome pix and thanks for sharing. That is something I would want to do with my brother some day.
 
Thanks for sharing, NSX looks GOOD:eek: Road trip is on my list, damn it I better find time for this:biggrin:
 
very nice...that dream car pic is pretty funny:biggrin:

btw, how did you manage to keep the NSX so clean throughout? Did you stop by car washes?

The car actually had a layer of dust on it. There wasn't really cars on the road when we were driving and if there was we passed them up, so no cars to pick up dirt. My brother was pretty much following me the whole time so I wouldn't get rock chips. We never saw any rain also, but there was a few bugs.
