That's correct. The 91 W has a Fas Track only lane and the regular lanes. The enclosed map (thanks Eric!) shows the two toll booths (plazas = Kalifornia-speak) on the 241 and 133 which I think is a great way to have the group stay together on the way down to Irvine.

Anyone willing to start a list of Caravaner's?

Sun, you know I got much love and respect for those 55's. Why is it that the boys with 55's don't know what I'm talking about. Let's go to the parking lot at BJ's and sort this out.

There's nothing wrong with stock. That's why you go to these meets and see what mods you can do to your car.

It's a competition between the Glendale caravan and the Riverside/Corona caravan for the smallest caravan.

So far, we're tied at 3/3. =P
