Great meet! I guess me and KLepTo are the only CLs showed up at the meet. We need more CLs for the upcoming BBQ.

The Sharper Road is awesome. Eventhough, it's a little bit short but imagine 17 acuras ran at the same time.

Here are some more pics. Enjoys.

Yeah! A lot of drivers slowed down and let us pass by. It was a good sight seeing and the best part, "MB converson" can still kept up and stayed behind us all the way.

Yeah my friend with the evo was riding with me. He didn't want to drive cuz he felt out of place with his evo, lol. I'll tell him to drive with us next time.

The meet was awesome..looking forward to the next time we meet k6's exhaust was off the hook..I heard it when I was 3-4 cars back with the windows up. Sharp Point = fun and dangerous at the same time Hitting the twisties at 70mph was nice.

Sorry I had to leave early and wasn't able to join you guys for lunch..I had to get back home at around 12ish. Till next time..

the thing is, i dont wanna look to 'ricey' at my work, most people have much nicer cars, and the average age of workers is 40-60, they call me the 'baby'. i also don't wanna have to harsh of a ride, cuz my 'delicate asian princess' will complain about road quality in sf.

choices, choices

some are...some arn't

lots of bmws, audi, mercedes, lexus, that type of cars.

there are a few acuras, but they are the more 'simple' cars in the lot...minus the nsx and new tls (there are 4 at my work including mine)

Is it 320 HP at the wheels on that EVO?? Or, is that a "guesstament" overall HP #?

From a roll, I think Ronnie's car will still take the EVO. From a dig, the EVO should own. Ronnie's car is extremely fast!!

Even in the twisties, Ronnie's car is set up real nice! It would be total driver skill in the twisties.

^it would be fun. My old dyno was 341hp&tq before headers, water/methanol injection, and utilizing 93 octane fuel map. I've raced an EVO with full exhaust piping changed, etc. putting around 300whp (according to the driver) and I walked him on the highway.

Evo is about 300lbs lighter so it would be a good race....as long as I get my tb repaired. The car was in limp mode (10mph) last night so it took me hours to get home.

Hi brizzle,
Ha, Thanks.
My camera is Canon S50 (Normal Digital Camera, but I used P mode and ISO was 50 or 100 when I took those pictures)
I am glad you like the pictures.
