Impromptu 3rd Gen Meet Pictures... 56K BEWARE...

Well folks we had a few A-TLers willing to brave the early morning elements to put their 3rd Gen TLs through their paces on the curvy mountain roads of the Angeles Crest Highway...

We had an impromptu mini meet which culminated at Newcombs Ranch for breakfast (5000 feet)...

Here are some pictures of this aforementioned mini meet...

I hope you enjoy...

Ciao

We all had a blast driving our cars the way they were meant to be driven... Some had to wipe the slober off of their chins when we were done... hehe...

This was a test ride to see if we could blend with the habitual customers (the bikers - me when I'm not driving me TL...) It went well and maybe next time we could accomodate more TLs...

If you are in the SoCal (Los Angeles - San Fernando Valley or adjacent) areas and would like to be included next time please drop me a PM or email (found at the end of my signature) and I will advise when next going up...
(Another possible next ride might be La Playa - the Beach)

Thank you all for you screens...
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year...

Ciao

I think this is the tremendous and elaborate meet. With these high quality shots, we seem to personally go through situation. Plus, I'd love to have a taste for the mini meet...

Salut, thanks for the pictures. Me and the wife had an excellent time! She can't wait to do it again and neither can I. Twisting through the mountains on a beautiful Sunday morning is what our TL's were meant to do. (Loved doing 110mph on the freeway) Thank you for the invite! Looking forward to doing it again soon. Merry Christmas to all!!

Thanks for the picks Seb...looks like a very good time...hopefully next time I won't have to miss out (went to JGTC that weekend).

Glad everyone had a good time, and that the so cal crew is getting together to enjoy each others cars and company.

Happy holidays everyone
