No, we are still on to meet Carlos (the Meet Organizer) at the Spectrum around 11am. We are meeting at Borders at 10:15 in the Savi Ranch area, in the North West part of the lot and then we will toll road to the Spectrum. Should be real easy to find- I too want to have some fun on the toll roads but Saturdays always seem to be CHP quota day.

Go back to page 1 to see the map of where Borders is in relation to Costco.

I won't be able to join the caravan. I have to work in the morning, then I'll head on over to the meet by myself.

It was nice meeting everyone. The ride through the toll road was smooth like butter. I just wish I had a FastTrak pass.

Vic55 and gE63... you guys disappeared into the horizon. For the first time, I felt like my C55 was dog slow.

I think that was the slowest I have ever driven on the toll road and no, your C55 is not slow at all, its those damn meters that took your change. Then I think you guys went the wrong way too? After the first both we were down to about 45mph trying to wait.

Yeah after the first booth, I was paranoid of the CHP. That's why I didn't go over 80. Then after the 2nd booth, I took the wrong exit. I love the smooth stretch of road though. It's perfect for high speed runs (when it's safe of course).
