Canepa’s first event this year is on April 9th!

Totally agree, Santana Row has become a show-off fest. Although I do get it, it’s just a different crowd. Benoit and the 100OCT team do a great job, but I much prefer the Canepa monthly meet up in Scotts Valley. More of a Jalop-type crowd.

Thirty.

Why the pre-facelift 991.1 tail lights?

Why do they try to disguise it as a car when we all know there’s a frickin truck underneath? You think they’d go for an Escalade look, or even the new XT5.

Yep, I caught a glimpse of this at Pebble Beach last year, with Stephan Winkelmann checking out the P1 GTR. Or maybe he was just admiring his reflection. One will never know.

Having worked in a few customer-facing roles at Tesla for almost two years, I have met some interesting people, both great and terrible, and I can probably write an entire blog dedicated to them. I’ll spare you the horror though and just tell you about one for now. Some lady who was taking delivery of a vegan-interior…

Best: Got to take a 2016 Cayman GTS on a 30 minute test drive through Carmel Valley during Porsche’s Monterey Car Week festivities. Literally the best car I’ve ever driven, and I’ve driven a lot. Other cool stuff I drove at Monterey test drive events: Jaguar F-Type R; Audi S3, RS5, and RS7; Land Rover Range Rover…

Well, E could stand for “evangelism”...

Damn. #DougGrom didn’t make it.

This sign, on 101 in Soledad, CA, which is known for, well, this sign. (And a state prison, I suppose.) To give you any hints, it’s definitely not happening in Soledad, although it is a great place to stop and pee.

I just did #1, and they pounded into our heads #2-#10! I’d be clueless if I didn’t take the course before buying my bike.

I think it’s time for #DougBike. With the resurgence of Lanesplitter, and the wider acceptance of #twowheelsgood, show us what it’s like to be a beginner!

This is cool. More of this!

The Model S. What I expected to sound like nothing more than whooshing air, the motors produce a pretty unique “hum” that is just audible enough to give the driver a sense that the car is moving forward. That is, if the insane G-forces don’t give you a clue!

The Tesla Model S, almost an entire M3 of power between the top and bottom trims.

Well. I just bought my first bike today, a 2015 CB500F. I can’t give all the credit to Lanesplitter, but I can say I’ve been reading daily since the revamp and it’s given me plenty of ideas. Well done.

FedEx Overnight. I once sent an envelope from San Jose to San Francisco, a 45 minute drive. Picked up in San Jose at 5pm. Flew to Memphis, TN. (YES TENNESSEE) Delivered in San Francisco the next morning at 11am.

Oh my. I was hoping this wouldn’t be that great so that I can go in and buy a 2015 next month on the cheap... now I think I need to wait.

A track-only Maserati MC12 Corsa on a side street in Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA, in front of the quaintest little restaurants you could find in the town.
