Great write up!! I'm gonna be in San Diego in 3 weeks (Aug. 30-Sept 12). I'll be staying in the Bankers Hill area. My cousins condo is about 2 blocks from the Mr A's building. If you have some time, I would LOVE to check out the ride.

not a problem at all. so long as you agree to have a pint of that arrogant bastard ale (in your avatar) from stone brewery with me while you're here.

btw, you're missing the stone 13th anniversary brewfest which is next weekend I believe.

Don't remind me about the brewfest... I was bummed that we were coming out a few weeks afterword. But, no big deal, we'll still make it up to Stone to do the tour and have lunch. I'm brining a friend of mine out this year who's never been to So. Cal so a trip up to Stone was already planned. I'll PM ya when we're there to try and set up a day to check out the ride. And the first round is on me

I'll be in San Diego tomorrow the 13th. send me your email and maybe we can meet up. I would LOVE to go for a ride in a turbo charged Cayman. Then brag to all my co workers here at Suncoast when I get back.

I'm down for this as well...I've never been to their brewery. 13th anniversary and some nice rides sounds like the perfect excuse to go.

Yes we did and the gains didnt match the cost... Factory units work really well.
