Thanks, Mike... and I am VERY glad that it's white

I lurk here because the SW section is overrun with Texans

Well Aaron, welcome aboard! This run will surely break you in on some great mountain driving, sort of. A lot of twisties, straightaways and hairpin turns.

See ya on Sunday,

Sparky and Par

Oh believe me, I've taken Mt. Baldy quite a few times. Just never with the 'Vette. I know how sharp those turns are haha. I learned to drive REALLY quick on that road... first road I ever took on a car cruise. Question for all: Is this a regular group that comes around to these So-Cal events or does it have different people every time?

Sparky and I have een doing this since 2005. Anybody is welcome with a Vette. No organization, no dues, no politics. We meet once a month at te Block of Orange. Some regulars most of the time, along with newbies. Sparky and I figure the date and destination. Thats the only organization.
