New question:

Let's say i rent a dream car... what's the best use of 675 miles in the california area if i pick it up at SFO? I am thinking a drive down to Laguna or somewhere south and then driving up Pacific Highway 1 to Willows, CA... thoughts?

Driving tips:
-Drive south down 1 to Rennsport @ Laguna Seca (that's where I'm going after Expo)
-Skyline drive in the foothills of of Woodside
-Drive south to Mt. Tam, there is an hour loop worth your time

Ryan,

That sounds cool... Would you be up for doing the drive(s) with me? Any others interested, for that matter?

We could incorporate several/all throughout the weekend. Several aim to visit Russian River/Henhouse/Lagunitas on the Tuesday prior, which could allow a Mt. Tam cruise. Post-Expo, we are coordinating a scenic cruise south, which is on the way to Monterrey for Rennsport.
