I'm actually just going to the main Coucours event on Sunday. Looking forward to it -- I've been once before, in '98 when I lived in San Jose. As for the other events, we have the mother of all auctions here in Phoenix every year (Barrett Jackson), so I don't feel I'm missing anything. I would have loved going to the Historic Races, but I am trying not to bore my wife with too many events.

I'm looking forward to the drive through Big Sur -- last time I was there was '83 (when the road washed-out), and I was just entering 6th grade, so I don't remember much. When I lived in San Jose, for some reason I never drove south of Carmel (but I did play golf at Poppy Hills, Laguna Seca, Pacific Grove and a few places up closer to Santa Cruz).

So you went to SLO? My freshman year of college was at UCSB (transferred to Arizona after CA raised out-of-state fees by like 60%)...
