Forget about standing around looking at cars! How about a driving meet? On October 24, 2009 me, my best friend and two others attended an “invitation only” driving meet in Beverly Hills @ 10am.
When we got there, we were immediately intimidated because of the Mercedes, Porsches, BMW, Ferrari’s even a Ford GT 40! There was only 3 G's out of about 30 cars! The excitement was thick in the air and quite a few guys and girls had driving gloves and all I could think was “holy crap” this ain’t your normal meet, no sir.
After standing around like a normal meet for about 30 minutes a guy from a company called Hyper●Formance MotorSports handed out a route named “Malibu’s Revenge” which had 1:55:00 printed on the top of the page.
He told us that the company is looking for 240 drivers to compete in 2010. All we had to do was prove our skills by driving safely and legally (no tickets or accidents) the route and get back within a 5 minute time window. That meant btw 1:50:00 and 1:55:00, how hard can it be right?
Wrong, it was hard, thrilling, exciting and the most fun me and my friends ever had driving our cars. We got timed out one by one (about 1 min a part) me and my friend were not together and when we got back I blew the time window by 2 MINUTES!
I’m telling everyone I can about this because I want to build a G35/G37 team so we can represent on the next Driving meet (Twisted Angel’s) coming up on Nov. 21 (Sat) at 9am. A co-driver is needed so bring a friend. PM me for more info, See ya’ll there!

Dude, Im glad someone had the guts to say that. At first I thought the same thing but my friend insisted that we go to this thing.
The tryout didnt cost anything if that is what you are thinking but it was a eye opening experience. I never had to drive under that kind of pressure before that is why I said "serious drivers only" because if you love to drive, what these guys are doing is the top of the scale.
Just come out on the Twisted Angel's meet and you will see for yourself. If you too scarred to tryout no one will laugh.
So. Cal Meet and Drive
