In this celebratory 50th episode of The Carmudgeon Show, Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott regale us with tales of their 624-mile weekend old-car road rally.
Derek brought his 964-chassis Porsche 911, Jason brought "Beatrice," his beater E30-chassis BMW 325i. Two friends bought Miatas: an NC3 and an ND2. More on the Mazdas in a future episode, we promise.
Derek picked a route of the twistiest back roads Northern California can offer and the boys grabbed a couple hotels.
Several things occurred to them:
1. California's passing laws suck because they put the onus of pulling over on the slower, weaker driver.
2. We've found our people: they use turn signals.
3. Track days are great, but we prefer back roads.
4. Tight and twisty back roads are more fun than track - it trades repetition for adventure.
5. This is the cheapest way of enjoying a weekend.
6. Poor Beatrice.
7. Focus on the driver mod!
