Post by: Newport Viper on December 21, 2007, 07:23:33 PM
Hey all!

Spent the last 6 months in Vegas. Took a new job and im back in CA! >2




However, I am not in SoCal but in....... Carmel by the Sea, CA ;D

Little cooler here, but pretty!  Laguna Seca is 10 min away!

Hope all you SoCal guys and girls are well!  It looks like I will be back down your way in a year and a half for my next project!!!!!! If you vacation up this way let me know....David

Sorry about the cell pics!

Hey Dave,
Sorry I missed you in Vegas last weekend. 

I checked out your "project" up in Carmel.... WOW    Pretty nice.  I bet I can rally a few people for a weekend run up that way.

Take care and shoot me an email with your info when you get a chance.

Hey Guys,

There are a couple of track groups that run Laguna Seca.

Maybe we could combine a trip to the track with some sight seeing?

Hey Dan,

Did you say Laguna Seca?   <2  <m  <2

The Corkscrew?   <L   <K  >2

Count me in!   ;D  8)

Let me know when (due to noise abatement laws & regulations, track time is not very easy to schedule).

Joining a track group would indeed be the best option Dan.

Hey Dave,

Good to see you posting.

I'd be interested in taking a trip up North too.

The Cork Screw??? >1  Not sure I would even want to walk over that. I got to the AMA  Superbike races every year and wow... that turn is insane. I will go watch anytime though.

And by the way, I know it has to be tough living in Carmel... LOL.

Those hotel photos remind me of the place we stayed at for the Hearst Castle cruise.

Very nice!
