I feel bad you guys couldn't find me. I think you were about 100 yards south of the bridge and I was 100 yards north of the bridge. I was only about 20-30 cars away from the front of the accident.

I would have welcomed the company though!!!

Maybe next time they shut down the freeway and try to land Life Flight on it, we can hook up

Great meet, thanks to everyone. Sorry group 5 for the minor detour but we managed to not loose anyone and get back on track.

Tried to make it up with some high speed runs through the twisties so I hope everyone enjoyed themselves. I wish I could have stayed for lunch but had other things to take care of but again thanks for letting me take part in this for the 4th year.

Gillian your driving skills have vastly improved as you stayed with us on some of the corners we were taking at over 70mph

Thanks Paul. Not bad for stock suspension, eh? We'll have to have an East Bay meet. I've found a ton of great twisties in my area. Mt Diablo is the obvious choice, but there's a lot of roads that people don't know about.

Thank you again for leading us. I'll joke about the golf course detour for a bit, but I really appreciate you joining us for the time you could. It must have been tough to go into the lot and then have to turn around and go home.

John thanks for the use of the 2-way radio, much appreciated.

We had 13 cars in our group...talk about big.

Yeah yeah Paul, that "detour" just an cover up story ..."Hey hey group? I went the wrong way, so we need to speed up and catch up!!!"

I broke off from group 4 pull over at that vista point, try to take pics as your group rolling by, but I waited for 10 minutes and it was getting hot standing on side of road so I took off, I pull over at stop sign again and see if you guys would catch up, just about to get out of car? you guys roll by, I didnt have to time to set up.

Sorry about you have that many cars in your group, couple of guys showed up late and group 1 and 2 had left already, so I give one to you and other to Eloy, didnt know either one have brought couple of friends/cars with them.
