March Drive - Saturday March 22
Morgan and I found some great roads this morning and I've already incorporated them into the next drive. I'm thinking March 22. Let me know who can make the date.

the 22nd looks like the only day for me, and that run looks great Vinny can't wait to hit those roads again it will be nice hitting them first thing in the morning so we'll have less folks on the road, Couser Canyon Rd got real hairy aroud a few blind turns and on coming traffic (we hit that road really hard for not knowing it)

When I go, I just get up early and drive out there. At that time of day it does not take long.
But the drive back sucks. |

I have not made a decision. Been a while since I went on this drive.
I have a track day on the 18th, and the cost of that might keep me at home for a while. Gas is getting expensive. |

Going to Laguna Seca. I use 100 octane in the track car, and I bet I burn through 12 gallons on that day. I am guessing that will be ~$80 for that, plus gas for the tow vehicle, plus the hotel room....
Maybe I should sleep in the truck. |

I'm going to be using 100 octane too. I'm figuring on spending close to $100 on it, plus the cost of the trailer and 900 miles of gas in the Sequoia pulling the trailer, and a hotel room for 4 nights. Going to be a $1,000 trip for me.

Are you going up early, or staying late?
Plus you have a better excuse than I do for being in that area. This went from being cheap thrills to an expensive hobby. I think you need to add in the cost of new tires after that week. Think you will still be able to do the drive that weekend? |

If I have the S2000 back together, and am not too busy, I may come out for the fun. May be the last chance I get with it for a while. Looks like I am going to be doing some major work to it.

Are you not spending the night?
It is hard for me to plan right now. I have some hot projects taking my attention, and I might have to work that weekend. The joys of being self employed. Heck, I probably should not be doing the track day, but I planned and payed for that a long time ago. |

I was thinkin' about your idea of leaving early so I would miss the fri night traffic.The I5 at 5:00 is not the hot set up.

I just think it is easier to get up, grab some coffee, and hit the road. It seems like it takes me about 1.5 hours from my house, and I don't speed (too badly.) Add in about another 30 minutes from Simi to my I5 exit, and you are still not too bad.
But, I wake up fast and can be on the road 10 minutes from the alarm going off. |

I personally have a 50 miles drive to the meeting point and am usually 10-15 minutes late. The meeting time is 7. I get there 7:10 or so and we leave by 7:30, so you have a little bit of time to play with.

Once we finish the drive, we don't usually hang out. Everyone is normally pretty tired and like I said, for me the total drive is more than 250 miles, so I am usually pretty beat afterward.
