... so I was on one of my usual favorite drives, "VC's to the Beach" -- Page Mill Road from Palo Alto, down Alpine Road to Pescadero. Using banana slugs as apexes is always fun. http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif What an "interesting" surprise to see this on the side of the road:

Note that this car doesn't even have a plate!

As always, be careful out there folks. Today I stopped to help another person with "more dollars than sense" who went wide on a brand new BMW motorcycle on Alpine Road, hanging the rear wheel off the cliff and sending his PASSENGER (his wife I suppose) onto the pavement. We flagged down a passing truck and used a rope to pull the bike back on the road. When you're sharing the road with these people, better watch out for what's around the corner.... http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/mad.gif

Given that I pretty much live on it, I do pagemill at least once a week.

Always wondered about some of those skid marks http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif

Hey Taner, welcome to the board!! http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/smile.gif

Does this mean you're getting serious about the WRX now? http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif

When I first glanced at that picture at work this morning, I thought it was a Grand Am or Solara or something, but no... NOOOOO!!!!!! Oh the agony! What a waste of a beatiful work of art =(

Yeah sorry, my car was moving so it was tough to get a good picture. One that showed the word "TURBO" on the back. http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/frown.gif

i doubt that's a turbo... i don't see the "gills" on the back bumper but that wing does look like turbo... if it was a turbo maybe the boost suprised him...lol...wut a moron...

Thats a turbo...only turbos have those wings...and you can see that it says turbo on the back...as for the grills...they're there if you look closely...they're hidden by the shadows...
