Doc Wong Tommorrow anyone???

I know that the "class" is amusing and you tend to get stuck behind a 55 year old Corvette slowcoach, but I always have a laugh.....plus it's always a giggle when a load of noisy, catless scoobys turn up in force to represent...it might even rain a little, then it will become an AWD Vette slaying session.

That is stupid, it's a damn leisure drive, not a race! I swear some people get crazy when they are out there, they really need to remember these are public roads and know their own limits.

before we set out he was telling us all about the trick AWD that puts power forward and rear as needed..

the accident occured on a damp route 84...he was 3 cars behind me and apparently just did a 4 wheel slide into the fence/tree....my Kuhmo MX's were sliding a bit a few bends before the accident site and the conditions were pretty changeable..

the owner was from SoCal...not many wet roads down there
