Driving an Elise around Atlanta is not a problem. Just drive defensively, like your on a motorcycle.

And watch out for the big metal plates in the road.

everything was sweet, I had a great time.

went to the coke museum, it was like a long coke commercial but twas fun to try all the different flavors, plus you get a free coke at the end (big deal).

went to the aquarium, really cool for an hour or so

got the top floor at the hotel somehow, a corner room to boot

got to park the car in front of the westin

girlfriend WACKED door on concrete

got drunk to get over wacked door event then went to the bar at the top of the tall westin hotel, got to spin around and get a good view of everything

went shopping at lenox square, got some sweet new puma driving shoes, kept girl entertained

got asked by a bunch of bums for money

had fun

stopped at tanger outlets in GA on 85

stopped and got fireworks in SC as if my car wasn't full enough, worried about fireworks exploding in hot trunk, reassured g/f by pointing to fire extinguisher



what i wanted to do: wanted to drive road atlanta w/ the porsche group sat/sun, it was too late to sign up last week plus they wouldn't allow me to do just sunday since i wouldn't be able to make saturday. the grand course at VIR this weekend should make up for it though

did NOT get to eat the THE VORTEX, i heard a lot about it though from people there
