Drive spectacular California back roads with Hirofumi

[Xetronic]

I was thinking about driving down early to meet at 6am on Sunday or whenever the drive time was going to start. Is there an address I can use to meet you all?

Thanks

PM sent. Sunday is a bit of a gamble with the weather. Highway 1 is usually overcast in the morning, but only rarely is it foggy at road level. Unless there is actual fog, this will be a really fun drive.

Now I am staying Scott's house in Washington DC.

Many thanks to coordinate for me.
Thank you very much. I enjoy San Francisco.
And I was happy to meet Ed, Steve and new friends.

Very best regards,
Hirofumi

Hirofumi Tomiyoshi, who is president of the NSX Club of Japan and who hosted 60-odd foreigners at NSX Fiesta last October, will visit the Bay Area briefly on his way to NSXPO. He will be staying at my house.

I am going to show him some of California's best NSX driving roads over most of 2 days. We will head south from the San Jose area at approximately noon on Saturday, September 17. We will overnight at the Hacienda Guest Lodge at Fort Hunter Liggett, departing very early Sunday morning, returning at 1 PM or so depending on the duration of stops. Hirofumi will be driving the purple car owned by you-know-whom.

I expect to drive 3 to 5 hours of scenic roads each day, plus some inevitable freeway portions. If you want to come along, please send me a PM. So far we have one other participant for Saturday only. If you plan to stay overnight for what will probably be a wonderful morning drive, you will need to book your room immediately. Ask me and I will tell you how to do that. The good news is that rooms are only $50 to $90, and the location is fabulous.

I am also looking for someone with a car-mounted videocamera so that we can give Hirofumi a memento of his fun drive as seen from the car behind him.

I was surprised at two cameras on roof indeed.

I have 2 Go Pro 1080p HD cameras that I've mounted on the NSX.

I would like to thank Keith for organizing this event. I have not driven the NSX much the past few years, and this trip reminded me why I fell in love with the car 15 years ago. It was great seeing Hirofumi again.
