Charlie Tuner and LAPD, over the hill, one is in Simi and the other in Ventura. You have to drive the car after the tune anyway, to break her in right. The PCH on the way down has a few good curves and the scenery is great!

Wow. They're even closer to me. I live in MV. Which would you recommend between OCC and GRC?

[Dude, you the guy I saw a couple times on Main Street in Irvine....? I was in the blue Z06 and I yelled something about recognizing your license plate from the Forum.]
