its cool to see some folks that are willing to go that early to see most of us off! too bad some of those same people cant go to the actual event...looking forward to seeing you all BTW, since I'll be coming from Palo Alto to pick up Eric, we either will make it on time to Coffee Lovers or will see you guys on the road to Gilroy...

it just occurred to me...taking 152 through Gilroy to the resort will be BRUTAL! if there is a fender bender, cars come to a grinding halt for 2-3 hours.

is anyone else concerned about this? plus it doesn't make for good photos but at least people won't get lost on a 2 lane road

we took that road last year and it wasnt THAT bad but yea i know what you mean. problem is that we dont have any other alternate route that will get us there in a reasonable timeframe.

Starfire Pearl ~~ The white on Lexus' line. Was carshopping with the gf at Lexus and I was like...this white is nice...yeah thats how i picked the color basically. Either that or that mica red...sparkly thing dont know the name. TBH it might be the same as WDP, but i'll call it SFP since the bodyshop im having it done said there is a slight difference, just that SFP is a teeeeensy bit whiter. I dunno, but i hope i can park next to a wdp when its done to compare

I wish we had a live chatroom to talk...im really tired from studying hahaha and can use a few distractions

Yeah no time to detail. Just probably a simple exterior wash and spot clean interior.

Cleaning my wheels takes longer than washing the entire car.

The new Sonax cleaner I got helps but still takes hella time with all those spokes.
