110+ miles of pure adrenaline (sp?) rush!!!! I wanna go again !!!

Chris, that was awesome drive plan. Dude, you ROCK!!

I'm still shaking from that little mishap! But yes that drive was awesome...definitely the hardest I have EVER pushed my car.

Suspension was awesome!
Tires were CRAP!!!! (Don't buy Dunlop's!!!!)

I think that was the most fun I have had in my contour since I bought it. There is just no keeping up with Chris...Thanks guys it was great.

I dropped the pics that I took on a temporary site for you guys to view and pull down.

Hey thanks for the props on the drive planning and your right it is hard to keep up with chris lol too many chris's in this world lol, dude c99 your psyco bro, and you too Jason"stinger" This was a great drive too bad more of you couldn't make it out we had a blast once we got passed all the trafic on 17 lol, Well it is going to be hard but I always try and top every meet, so lets wait and see what happends next time, hey myst hope you can get all those scratches out, and houligan I don't know why but for some reason Sandra and I kept forgetig our name while we were driving, so I think we are going to name you "goldie" lol no offense but that is what we were callin you all day, just cause of the color of the tour any way thanks to all fro showing up it was awsome and yes Bill we are alive, too bad you couldn't have stuck around to hear the storey of how we aot so far behind but hey lets just say don't ever let any one drink and drive, email me and I will tell you the story, it is pretty freaky

Da*n that was a kick a** drive. definately the most fun i've had so far in my 'tour. pity the far north peeps could't find a way to join in. hopefully they all read this and try to make the next one. 115+ down hwy 1. phsyco ford owners. rice drivers beware. hey, did anyone else see the blue R34 skyline? thats right everyone, i said SKYLINE. when i pulled on to 280 about 5 cars back was some little prick in an R34 with a motorex badge on the back. first time i'd ever seen one on the road. and only the second one i've ever seen. thought maybe he had gone past you guys when you were waiting near that restaurant.

Chris & Sandra thanx for an awesome drive. see ya next time.

don't want to bring you guys down, but I'd rather be an adult and warn instead of read about reality...

there were 2 hondas that were doing 90mph about 1/4 mile from my house last weekend and they both "bought it", lifeflight and everything....

I know I wasn't there to enjoy the thrill, but please be smart..

How come I always get real sick the day of the best meets! There was no way I was up for that crazy drive. Better safe then sorry. Well next time I will be there. Glad everyone had a good meet.

Yeah I don't know about 115mph. I would say that most of it was limited by traffic on the road. More like 80-85 with a few fast sprints while passing so we could try to stay together. Still very fun though, on the other hand, I was towards the back so I wouldn't couldn't say how fast the lead dogs were going, but I didn't see anything too crazy until we got into the hills. My stock springs and struts got too much roll on them to keep up in the twisties. Those guys can really haul. Guess that will be the next upgrade.

hey Toadster, thank you for the words of reason, and your absolutely right. So let me explain, 115 was briefly attained AFTER passing a slower moving vehicle on an open stretch of hwy 1 in order to TRY to catch up to lead pack. didn't mean to make it sound like we are all reckless fools. i want to emphasize that marshallc who organizes our drives stresses safety before fun. most of us are pretty familiar it seems with triple didget speeds (ie. fun @ 120 posted 5/9)and we seem to know when and where we can do it/ get away with it. but you're right and anything can happen anywhere. so thank again for the concern.

Bill
