LOL! Nice story, it was similar to when I ejected a lip and visor.

It's not the first time a member has lost parts.

There was a 5Axis front lip on Hwy 5 left last year on the way down to the Pursuit.

That thing was spinning on the lanes like a boomerang.

Talk about evasive action

They were around, but were still in High School.

OK... Just confirmed with my girlfriend, we will be attending for the day trip only. I'm also bringing another friend so that will be a total of 3 of us.

Here's a video of the road trip to the Pursuit last year.

And here's a list of the carnage:

1. Lost front 5 Axis lip spoiler
2. Separated front bumper
3. Overheating motor in 105 degree heat
4. CHP visit following the trail of coolant
5. One road kill - Death by sway bar

There were 1st Gen IS and 3rd Gen GS on the trip but they somehow missed the video footage.

Drama but Fun Nevertheless

What do people think about the Sardine Factory? I kinda know the owner and might be able to get a deal. Or at least a reservation - supposed to be pretty popular.

If I could of brought the wifey I'd stay for dinner, but right now it looks like I need to be back home.





PS- Kokonutjc is trying to join us and will contribute his photoshoot skills if he can make it.

I would definitely join you guys but I have a birthday for a family member to attend to on Saturday.

Have a safe trip....the 17 mile drive and Cannery Row parking will be very tricky on a Saturday, especially with that many cars, let alone 1 car. You may want to reconsider taking the trip through there or better yet, consolidate and carpool.

Hey Glenn, if you want, my girlfriend can drive my GS and I can drive your GS... You know, to represent even harder. Hahah

Fisherman's Grotto is awesome! Their clam chowder is excellent. My girlfriend mentioned she might want to try Sardine Factory. I don't see why we can't have both. Haha

Looks like Fisherman's Grotto is considerably less expensive. So maybe go with that over the Sardine Factory. More money for mods.
