I wouldn't mind a Napa drive, but perhaps without the tour. :-) How about we leave early and end with a lunch somewhere while heading back?

A drive to Napa could be a mess coming back, since it's a holiday weekend...

Think it would be bad on Saturday? Otherwise, i just want to drive. :-) Anywhere is fine with me, as long as we pick a starting date, time, and place.

Here is a pretty cool drive I used to do in my S2000 when I lived up in Petaluma/ Sonoma County It's by the shore, not big on traffic, and super fast and twisty.

Plenty of spots to eat along the way.

Stinson Beach is probably the only spot where you will hit traffic.

This is another drive I used to do on my own sometime... kind of a Skyline drive on crack...

Closer and shorter, still along the coast.

Are you on the Penninsula? Maybe just doing a good drive to Santa Cruz or something would be fun...

I'm in for a Sunday drive. I like VRAlexander's plan that'll, work for me. But I know weather will be a factor. I'll keep an eye on the thread. VR, will you have the turbo?

Forcast still calls for rain on Sunday but clear tomorrow (Saturday). I think Saturday might make more sense. Perhaps after Santana Row as suggested?

I think a few of the regulars are gonna be at the normal parking lot this saturday. It'd be great to do a little drive afterwards if some are up for it. There's also been talk of potentially going up to the roof of a different parking lot as well in case the usual spot is going to be full of shoppers.

Oh well, weather looks good either way!
