lol, how often you going 112? got some back roads over there eh?

i had a friend who totaled his roush on a backroad...
daddy bought him the car when he was 16... 4 months later he plugs it into a pole on a straight line backroad.

Thumbs up

Hi All, remember folks this is not happening this Saturday, this is in May 31st and the proposed staging point is in Marine Drive ( this is underneath Golden Gate Bridge). Time is still TBA - what time is good for everyone?
I have chosen this spot for taking pictures and we will be driving around Alpine Lake to Highway 1 to Stinson beach to Muir beach and head back. I don't know how long this drive will take. This is depending on if we stop a lot for good spots which I am sure a very scenic drive.
I am still planning on where to eat but there are several per google

**Parkside cafe's got good review so far**

There are no gas station per google so before we head in we will fill up just to be sure.

Anyone who have suggestion let us know. I am not leading this run this is everyone's run and we are here to enjoy.



This should be a fun drive cruise with a lot of touge driving so don't forget your dramamine medicine a lot of twisties here. Again we need to be safe these are public roads and we must obey traffic laws. This drive is not just for rotary cars but for other cars as well.

Can you find out how long the route is? I rarely get more than about 130-150 out of a tank.

How many miles you braking it in for?

I think I'm going to go w/ 500mi under 4k then get an oil change. After that, every 150mi I go I will go 1k higher. Then oil change at 1,000mi or 1,200mi and lastly a tune. That's what my installer suggests anyways...

But I hear different opinions from other people..

Thumbs up Mount Tamalpais run

Here is an update that will be taking place this Saturday May 31st. Per google the entire trip round trip is about 80 miles and will take 2 hours this is if we are not stopping and keep on driving. I would say morning meet (around 11am???) in the staging point will be better. Staging point starts at Marine Drive San Francisco a good opportunity to take those pictures and hopefully it will be a clear day so that Golden Gate bridge will be the surrounding background. Here is a sample shot from the parking



Here is the entire trip per google, take note there are alternate route inside this circle I did not include and that will be decided by everyone if you want to explore deeper but I know this is enough twisties to make you dizzy.



And the road we are going to drive in!!!
