“Tour d’Orange" 2011.
This was a great event, how many cars? I don't know for sure but it was 200 to 300 easy, it was a beautiful California New Years Day, great people and good times.
Link to video posted up on the event, part 1 & 2 with the long version on part 1 for some of the cruise route.

I got on the film pt. 1, at 8:34 min, (Silver G37S GT intake) for a very brief moment & a bit of my blow off can be heard just before the engine rev from the black car behind me made the audio track.
Take care all and have a wonderful & safe 2011.

This was an awesome event! I was able to put a few beat downs on a couple modded mustangs at certain points on the cruise as well! Fun times and I will def do this event next year!

maybe next time i can make it to this one. It looks like a lot of fun.
Sorry I missed seeing you at the event, I found your Silver G parked near the end of the block prior to the roll out. With all the candy to look at all the faces looked the same, hope to see you next year. Good for you that you had the opportunity to introduce your G to a few of the Stang's at the event. And if I may share, a very nice gentleman in a corvette noted to me at the end of the cruise that he did his utmost to tandem with me in the Laguna Canyon corridor without success. Cool vids that were posted up, some of those guys have some really nice camera toys don't they?
Take care and have a fantastic 2011.

Yeah man I had no idea you were on the cruise until I saw the video haha! I broke off in RSM because I had other thing's to do, but next year I will do the whole thing. Yeah the Mustang guys were pretty surprised I could walk away from them with ease. Glad to see you taught some Corvette boys a thing or two. Boosted G's are not to be messed with Originally Posted by gttsome

wow I wish I had heard about this event, I so would have gone. Being new to Orange County it would have been really cool, will definetely go next year.
It was GREEEEAT, maybe next year a few of us can run together just like the other clubs that roll out on this event together. We do have better cars than most of the other clubs, "BLING", ya-know it, ya-all can see that just fine.
Take care all.

Take care all.
