First drive of the new year

Thanks, Les, and JC, for organizing another yet memorable event--45 nsx's participating!! Wonderful to see old friends, and meet new ones. Big shout out for San Diego representing!! Fabulous California weather in Malibu, good eats, and an awesome SoCal NSX group. Les, what can we say--you say the word--and we'll follow!!!! PS: Thanks to all those who shared their wonderful pictures!
 
Thanks Les, and leaders for a well organized drive!

First time with the NSX in the canyons, was a lot of fun! It was really fun being a sweeper. :)

Just seeing that many NSXs in a row, was just awesome. I had to pinch myself.

Will post pics soon.

fiesty
 
Another huge thanks to Les and JC for organizing this drive.
45/50 cars and no hiccups whatsoever during the drive-talk about a successful run!!!:eek:


Who was the one at the top of the drive with the sign posted on the side PHOTO OP IN PROGRESS (something along that line) with the flashes for each car passing through?



Great shots guys!!! I know Randy has a whole bunch, props for driving and snapping some epic shots at the same time :biggrin:

Great drive today!! Thanks a bunch to Les for organizing, and to the group leaders and sweepers, especially for the Group 4 sweeper, who made sure some of us lost folk made it to that great last stretch on Latigo Canyon Road.

I've got a bunch of pics to sort through, but here's a sneak preview....

Man, Randy, you got skills!

Driving with one hand (did you even use your other hand?), doing rolling shots while looking backward :eek::eek::eek:
My pictures don't even turn out that good while standing still:biggrin:

I was happy to see you do a rolling shot of us. I hope I didn't ruin any of your shots.

Big thanks for one of your rolling shots :smile:


Talk about preparation. Les even printed out the directions and colored maps too :eek:

Just wait until you get to the meeting on Thursday night and hear all of us talking about how great it was. You'll want to do more than just kicking yourself. I'll volunteer to help kick you if that will make you feel any better:biggrin:.

Just kidding.
 
I put these in the gallery thread on Sunday but decided they should go here too... Here are a few of my photos from today's meet. I met up at 7AM with the first group at Claim Jumper in Fountain Valley, and then we drove to an Albertson's in Los Angeles to meet up with a second group at 8AM. Together, we all drove in the hills above Malibu and then to a lunch at Coggies, in Malibu.
