I think I saw you driving on Hawthorne a while back.
There are more Turbos here than I thought.
Can we put together a weekly drive or meet?

Oliver -- So you finished your house. FYI -- unless you want to be popped, I would not be running anywhere too fast in the Turbo.
You will have to go down to OC or Malibu to do some good runs.
If you want someone to run with, you have my number -- I now have a Lambo G (along with the Turbo and GT-R)

Good to hear from you. How is Turbo holding up against the GT-R?
Let me know if you change your mind re. the equipment we were talking about.
Do you want to go on a drive, would be fun to see the GT-R and the Turbo side by side.

I grew up in PV and live there now (previously lived in WestLA). Definitely lots of cops, so it's worth investing in a radar detector...first thing I bought after moving back.
There's really nowhere to do a long spirited run, but if you want a nice cruise I used to ride my CBR around the roads up the hill across from Trump National, or just along PV Drive West along the cliffs.
We definitely need to have more Porsche meets down this way! Pacific Porsche hosts small events every now and then for new car releases, but that's about it.

I sent you a PM. Let's get a drive or meet together.

OK, this weekend is Mother's day. Some of you might not be able to make it. But then again, some might.
Could you all just indicate who is up for a drive and lunch or something like that? Maybe on Saturday?
Could you please post a reply with the day that would work best for you?
We should do this monthly.

There are plenty of roads in PV to have some fun on, the catch is most of them are residential streets, or patrolled by sheriffs who aren't happy with exotics since a recent incident.
The switchbacks as mentioned are ok but its a short run, for any great roads you have to drive to Malibi or Glendora/Angeles crest. I was raised there an had quite some fun on the roads but theres certain times you can an cant run them hard ect.
Its a family city thats being over crowded an im glad to have left, that being said its a safe city hence why I leave my M3 there at my parents garage. Dont have to worry about her there.
