I had a good time at the Jay Leno show today.

Laura Bush, Burt Ratan and Mike Melville were the guests.

Here is Jay Leaving in his McLaren SLR

This is a VERY nice Car

I had a very brief chat with Jay as he was off to catch a plane to Vegas.

But he DOES NOT HAVE AN ELISE, I asked him he told me...

Who the hell started that rumor? I am guessing the same person that made up the LTS=base suspension

This was the best part of the day

Burt told me that Colin Chapman was a good friend of his and that he has been to Hethel a few times.

Burt and Mike are top lads:clap: :clap:

Cool.

So what is that stuff in Jay's passenger seat?

 

[Patricko]

it is some kind of stuffed toy that he was carrying when he got into the car.

Cool.

So what is that stuff in Jay's passenger seat?

looks like a stuffed bear with sunglasses and a card Jay's BUSTED!

wow! how did you get that kind of access, Patricko?!

 

[NtflBlueLiz]

How come you didn't take the Elise instead of the Benz?

I could tell you but...

My Uncle works for Jay

I did take my Elise that is Jay's SLR

 

[Surferjer]

So what did Jay think of the Elise? Was he at all interested?

He likes the Elise but I only had about 1 minute with him as he had to catch a plane to Vegas. I had enough time to ask him how he likes his and find out that he does not have one

If he had more time I would have offered to let him take my Elise for a spin mostly because I know he is good for it if there is a mishap

Jay Leno

Well Done, I cannot believe you got to meet Burt Rutan on top of it (Laura Bush also???). If I win the lottery I know where my first $200-300K is going, a ride on Space Ship 1. I think we should organize a spring meeting in southern California and all go to his house (Jay's). My kid is at Caltech so I have a good excuse to cruise out there. I am also a native of Newport Beach a few hundred years ago.

I may even get my Elise before Jay!!!!

SY, Touring, LSS soon to be (I hope) - dealer sez 3-5 months.

Damn Patricko- that's really cool. Great pictures- must have been an outstanding experience. Did you ask that punk Leno why he got the SLR if he only drives stick?
