Thank you... Everyone!!! for making this such a great time:-)
A special Thank you to Lew... Always from day 1 he has been the wizard of direction behind the curtain,,, Just could not do it without him...
and thanks to the Valley group.. such great guys and such amazing drivers...
It was amazing to see another C3 take on the second half of the run, beautiful blue car,,, my favorite part of the whole day!!:-)
No tickets this time,,, and no injured corvettes... Everyone made it through this time... is that a first?? lol
OMG... some absolutely beautiful corvettes.. and some with RWHP power from the gods,,, makes my little 40yo C3 look tame.. Some fast cars... and again,,, some amazing drivers...
The traffic was amazingly low,,, almost none,,, and the weather??? OMG... Amazing... all in all near perfect day.. could not have ask for much more.. We did have to stop for about an hour on the way up a canyon as a motorcycle and car took each other out, then in turn took another 2? bikes out... helicopter police ambulances firetrucks and all that stuff...sad to see,,,
hit 1 rock, though i took out the front tire... but not:-) all good..
Mark,,, I brought you a new cap... just for you... same color as my car:-) but you weren't there:-( I'll save it for you:-)
We had 21 plus 1:-) smaller group then some in the past, but also very manageable.. here are some pictures:-)

We didn't do the second half but a great time and enjoyed meeting other vette owners.
Thanks for all the work organizing this and keeping track of us along the way!

Thank you, Paul and Lew, for a really great time! I'm looking forward to next year. BTW, dinner at the Hitching Post was beyond wonderful! And breakfast at Anderson's Split Pea wasn't too shabby.

Michele and I had a great time driving up with you all. Sorry we couldn't join you on the way back but we extended the run up to Cambria via Zaca Station Rd to Foxen Rd to Tepusquet Rd to the 166 west then 101 north. The drive back on Monday was equally awesome. We hit some high speeds going east on the 166 and had some glorious scenery through the Hudson Ranch Rd with no traffic whatsoever all the way to the 5 Frwy parking lot. Thanks to Lew and Paul for bringing us all together. Good times.
p.s. If ever staying in Cambria, the Cambria Shores Inn is the ultimate place to stay with the highest ocean view vantage point with tons of Adirondack chairs to sip your wine or guzzle your beer! Also dog friendly.
