Hwy 70 and Hwy 89 junction at the big old barn. We had just been in 93 degree temperature on the canyon floor and Quincy was no better. We had climbed another 2k feet and it was like someone turned on the air conditioner. It was a nice resting spot and to swap stories of the 6 that were told not to come back to Quincy and they have their plate numbers. Jim were you in the outlaw group of 6?

Nice selection of Z's / G's and mix of other sport cars.

My favorite shot and you got it with our caravan crossing the bridge. I think the blue car on the bridge is either TongMan’s Z34 or Juan’s G35. You can probably see me and my copilot standing on the rails at the far end of the bridge taking photos.

Thanks Jim for the great shot.

Good to know I had some reserve on the oil temp gauge. Oil cooler still in the works.

Did anyone in the outlaws group shoot any video? I coined the 6 that missed the photo stop "the outlaws".

Here are some of my pictures:

Oh noice, put the blame on some innocent looking family wagons.

"I know nothing"
Quote from Shultz of Hogan’s Heroes

Should rebadge em as "Desperate Outlaws"

Tong, thx for the great pics.

Pic #1: Sure fooled me the way its cropped makes it look like Colorado.

Pic #3: A great rep of the cars.

Pic #4 If I could only see the Desperate Outlaws under the tree. Who were those Mystery Menaces???

Pic #5 Nice color combo

Pic #6 Even nicer color combo

Pic#8 Isn’t that a great feeling.

I nominate 80 coming out of Truckee as the roughest freeway in California. I know times are tough but gravel on dirt would be better then that.

I could not believe the pitted road for about 5 miles. It was so bad I had to turn the music up very loud to deafen the road noise.

As it turned out the next day my front end was plastered with giant squashed bugs. I washed it down and found my paint on the front grill had chipped (the size of dime) in a stress spot near the fang. At first I thought it was a bug that had toxic guts that ate thru my paint. Then I looked at some photos I had taken priot to the wash and there was no bugs in the chipped spot. So the wash pulled the paint from stress and I could only think it was the hammering of I-80 in that 5 mile stretch. Oh well you cannot see it unless really looking for it. I will get repaired and recovered with Venture Shield.

Slow on the pix, due to issues with my photobucket account. So I will be using a new server to host my pix - Picaso.

May have to put off the pix until after the Brunch Casino Run. Sry guys. I will try and to post up some teaser pix.

My co pilot and very good photographer was just accepted to some fancy Art school in San Francisco, dropped off his pix and they are astounding.

One of our good friends Bill Newcomb shot and edited some great onboard video. It's a long video but worth the wait. I could not believe the scenery and sky; it really described A Day in The Sierra's. Thanks Bill for an awesome job!
