4/25 LaConner Tulip Daffodil Rallye - Anyone?

Club MG is hosting their 28th annual Tulip run, this is posted up on PCA and various other car clubs around the region. From a couple friends who partook last year, they said the drive and the scenery was outstanding, and quite a number of rare classics and cool cars showed up to attend. I do believe Griot's garage was their providing a detail demo as well. I know the Exotics @ RTC is on the same day, but I figured I'd pass along the details to anyone wanting to get out and enjoy a cruise

PM for Link

Check the flower count before you go. We went last week and there really was almost no tullips blooming at all

lots of dirt fields but LaConner was packed with people. We had a great day

Hasn't Jason shown you the 'white balance' button yet? I would think with your love of all things non color you would know all about that! Your car looks very creamy here not very carrara =) Shoot raw and adjust that white balance...

Are the tulips all gone or not all here yet? I was thinking about heading up this weekend or next too.

There were fields with lots of Tulips. Took us awhile to find them last Sunday.

Mark! Did you drive your car into the daffodil fields? It looks like you got some daffodils stuck in your wheels.

Dibs on the OEM brakes - Kidding aside (actually not really, I'd buy them if they came up for sale), I too need to up the braking on the Z. There are plenty of aftermarket options available, but none that cater to my specific goals, which is a dual caliper rear setup with a hydro e-brake. Fabrication is no concern, but finding calipers that will accept the size rotor I'm looking for is tricky - the SRT-10 has brembo e-brake calipers that would work, however they're not hydraulic The 430 rear setup would also work...

My wife and I went on Monday and I think the condition is better than last week. It was a fun day and we stop by the "No.1 place for fun" afterward for dinner !
