Hey Doc,
Come meet us in Irvine at 7:00.
We'll be at the Starbucks off Shady Canyon / Quail Hill and the 405.

Well it is bad weather in Park City, rain, Mammoth is cloudy and 57 degrees makes for not so great skiing.  I am in town, will try to make it, I get a skin rash every time I enter Orange County, funny thing is, the rash abates when I cross over the county line and leave Orange County.  Long way down a busy road to Carlsbad.....  <2

Sorry Doc I won't be able to make this one.   >o =17

Just in case it matters my girlfriend decided she wants to go ... so it will be Rex + one.

No problem at all.
What is her name?  I'll add her to the list.

Race Copper Richard,

Most excellent run today, glad I made the effort to come down from the North.  Eduardo Veloce, (Fast Eddie), you missed a great run, you probably had fun shopping for baby booties! That Orange Viper would have had a great time.

Kudo's to Richard and Lance. There were over 40 cars winding throughout the San Diego Back country roads.

Had a blast with the Corvette guys. They were pretty fun.

The weather was perfect. Cars were making big power.

Lots of new people. Nice to see the club growing.

Lunch was great. Finishing off with a Bananas Foster...priceless.

Cruising the roads in San Diego are so much fun.  Doing it with a long line of friends makes it even more fun !
It was sure nice to see everyone and I look forward to doing it again later this year.

Well it took me little bit to get pictures posted.   Technical difficulties had the I.T. guys busy, but we got it squared away and I'm back online taking up more than my share of bandwidth.

Here are a few of the pictures I took.  The rest are up on my site.....finally:  www.kouchicentral.com (http://www.kouchicentral.com)
