A couple of weekends later, I went to Skyline again with a couple of friends
and this time we drove down HWY 9 to Santa Cruz.

That day, I didn't drive as my Miata was having its failing transmission
replaced with an RX7 one, but it's probably just as well because the drive
got a bit crazy, and one of the drivers lost it in a turn while the front pack
was going way too fast in a 1.5 lane road, downhill with blind turn after blind
turn...
Luckily no one was hurt. The only disturbing part is when someone mentionned "damn, he spun out in the same turn than the other guy last time". The picts are here

While this event was very enlightening and useful to learn how to control your
car better, it was also a complete blast.
Thanks a lot to all the people who put it together and all the instructors who volunteered their time. The picts are here

I had promised myself that I wouldn't go to a drive like this before getting my
rollbar (better be safe than sorry).
Now that I had it, it was time to give the drive a shot. Dr Wong gave a quick introduction and filled in for the speaker, who wasn't able to show up that day, and gave everyone a warning about not driving over their capabilities. The drive went fine, and as a bonus, we saw a huge convoy of bikers heading north on HWY 1 (more than 500 of them) The picts are here
