Carbon, 02996ttx50, and I had a nice day of canyon carving.

Pretty rare to see a Slate Grey car, let alone two!

Or a meteor gray in the mix. Which canyon do you guys carve? I usually do the San Gabriel mountain.

I'd love to hit that Ojai trip I keep reading about on the SoCal forum, but 7am on a Sunday is usually a tough sell for this lazy bum.

We had but a loose plan and made up some as we went along. The route ended up something like this:
Mulholland west > 23 south to PCH > Kanan Dune > Mulholland again > Stunt Road > Saddle Peak Road/Tuna Canyon Road/Fernwood > Topanga Canyon Blvd (27). I'm probably missing bits since I was following one of the other guys half the time.

It's a bit cold and wet out there for spirited driving. The rain also left plenty of loose rock and gravel on the roads as well.

Too bad I did not see you guys. Yesterday I was carving through Kanan and Decker Canyon and then PCH up to Hueneme and then down to Santa Monica.

Jeez, lots of grey turbos around!

Next time we set something up I'll PM all of you.

The only Porsche we saw was a 997.1 GT3 at full WOT headed the other way

I was in a silver 996TT.

Kanan was great, except the slightly wet roads and debris.

MrWhite, is that off Piuma? I've been to that outlook before and was trying to tell the guys about it but couldn't remember where it was.
