I noticed you guys right away ! I was the tail radio car (ardent red Elise no top ) most of the way, very beautiful and cool old Bimmer guys ! Yes the pace was hard to set, we had some people new to driving the malibu twisties and some vetrans, I think it was a fairly medium pace personally which was perfect for me. Hal that is bizarre on your seat malfunction, do you adjust it often? Or maybe from the last time you adjusted it for any reason that quarter got caught in the rails and it was holding the seat in place till this afternoon ? I had on incident a little like that when I had adjusted my seat after getting the car serviced, I thought it was in a notched locked position but when I hit the brakes hard it popped to the next notch and scared the crap out of me, always good to really test the seat after adjusting !

I had one scary moment this morning because of my almost dead right rear tire, in a very tight left turn it broke loose a bit, thank god my spring mountain HPD training kicked in and made it a very low key, whooops/ quick correction kind of event vs a spin out !! I knew that tire was not in the best shape, that is why I volunteered to be the rear car, but I probably should not have gone out at all today !

We picked up a beautiful Chrome Orange Exige S purely by chance on PCH, Blake was pulling out of a burger place and caught up to me at the rear and asked if he could tag along, I could hear the super charger whooping every time he punched it, cool stuff ! any pictures anybody ?
