but I'll be on my way to California around that time. 
Sounds like a lot of fun, though.

I enjoyed joining the NSX-S2000 group last Sunday for a spirited drive in the backroads north of Plano. But, alas, although I love the NSX and S2000, neither are currently in my car family (Porsche 911 Turbo, Supra Turbo, and Subaru WRX). Well, at any rate, I was wondering, as I'm sure others will be, if you'd like to have some other like-minded enthusiasts join you, or if you'd prefer to only and strictly keep it NSX and S2000? It's your trip, your deal, your decision, either response (yes or no) is valid, and to be respected. Just let us know!
