Let's represent Lotus at SF Bay Area weekly meets - Page 11 - LotusTalk

Wasabi · 11-30-2006, 08:22 AM

I wouldn't mind one last meet before the weather turns for the worst... I see some of the Ferrarichat people will be meeting up in Dublin for the drive down, anyone else in the east bay that might join them?

sandsmuseum · 11-30-2006, 12:59 PM

I got new brakes, wheels and tires. I need an excuse to go out and drive...

I will be there,

Michael

apkom · 11-30-2006, 02:55 PM

I will be there, too. Looks like we're going to quite some gathering finally.
Are we going on a drive afterwards?

Aaaw - but that's boring

It's been awhile since we've made it to SR, but this Saturday looks like it will be nice. Hopefully, we'll make it down.

def · 12-01-2006, 09:11 AM

Anyone in the area have (or know someone who has) an Exige S? I haven't seen one yet! hint hint...

rnr · 12-01-2006, 09:17 AM

So the the plan is to start the drive at 10? I wont be able to make the meet but would like to join the drive.

LarryB · 12-01-2006, 10:17 AM

Mostly likely wouldn't make it till a bit before the drive. But lets plan on heading out at 10am.

Wasabi · 12-01-2006, 10:25 AM

Just lotus or you think we could snag a few ferrari/lambo people? Don't they usually do a short drive afterwards? Though I suspect their drives are more of the cruising kind, but I've never gone with them so I dunno... I'm sure our drives are a little more.... lively

LarryB · 12-01-2006, 10:31 AM

I've gone out with the full group once before. They run a decent pace. It can be fun running with some of the more exotic cars. Rather not have too big a group and don't know what route they might have in mind this time. So we'll play it by ear.

habendanio · 12-01-2006, 12:29 PM

I might go for the run afterwards.

tprojl · 12-01-2006, 12:48 PM

Think I'll make it out for tomorrow's meet. I'd be interested in a caravan heading down to SR. I'm in Hayward off of 880. If anybody's interested let me know.

Hiro · 12-01-2006, 12:56 PM

I'm not sure I can join, but I will try to stop by to say hello to
all of you.
I visited the meet before but I didn't drive my Lotus at that
time. This will be the first time with my Exige.

def · 12-01-2006, 02:46 PM

tprojl: if you come down, i'll beg you for a ride around the block... I've been wanting to hear a stage 2!

The CGT and I went by ourselves last time and I assure you, it was NOT at a leasurely pace

However, we got stuck behind some pickup trucks for a while so starting at 10am may be a little too late.... less traffic when you take off at 9am or so.

See y'all tomorrow.

I'd be happy to oblige. I think if you knew me though, you'd rethink becoming a passenger in my car.

j/k. See you guys tomorrow.

rnr · 12-01-2006, 06:42 PM

I will be there by 10 for the drive - if you guys want to leave earlier please post tonight so I can plan accordingly.

LarryB · 12-01-2006, 07:33 PM

Last time I hit the back roads from SR it was just def and me. Traffic was really light. On my own like to head out 7:30-8am Sunday. But allowing folks to get there from other parts of the bay will go for 10am tomorrow. Planning on pulling over in a couple of spots. To let everyone gather up that might get hung up in slower traffic.

raggedy1 · 12-01-2006, 08:44 PM

I'll be there!
I'm going to try to make the drive afterwards too. I have to break in my new 2bular Ultra thru-the-diffuser!

seeya guys
