One of the best automotive days in my life. Started out with cars and coffee which is a show Saturday mornings I go to in irvine. This show they had an exotic car rally.....I pretty much had to be a part of. I saw the guy handing out the maps for the rally and I distracted him just enough to take one of the maps. Then I ran into a guy I know that was participating in the rally. All of the exotics started to leave so me my friend Rok and Baxter jumped in the Evo and followed the cluster of Ferraris, porsches and even a lamborghini reventon. [very limited quantity and expensive lambo].
So I follow 100+ exotic cars to an undisclosed location behind John wayne airport. This was amazing. I then finagle my way into the area where they are meeting and discussing the rally. We were waiting for about 30 minutes and then the rally started. (not off road race-just a point to point "drive"). So we get in the car and I was about 10 cars from the fake police car they had as our point car. Yeah. They had a staged police car spotting for real cops. And a mustang gt that looked like one. They were blocking off the entire street so the 100+ exotics could all stay together. Well that didn't last long. We got onto the 241 toll road and ferraris & lambos were flying by me at 160+mph. That was incredible. So I ended up getting seperated with about 10 other cars we had to go all the way tithe 91 and the. Double back which was about 15 minutes. So we were speeding to catch up with the other group. Then we realized that there was a police helicopter following the pack. So I broke off from the pack and headed down Antonio and the chopper was following me. Then I came up to crown valley
6 CHP cars boxed me out on Antonio and crown valley.Baxter had his head out the door trying to see what was going on. "Luckily" I just got a 108 mph speeding ticket. I am hoping to get the video footage from the chopper. I still find it ironic that ferraris and lambos going 160+ mph and I get the ticket.
Besides the ticket I had an incredible time
