R8 Takes 3rd Place in Targa Trophy LA Leg

Someone had to represent

I was very surprised to find out that my car was the 1st R8 to participate in any of their events. Pretty sad considering how many R8 owners are on this board and live in the SoCal area

Gratz on 3rd place! What came 1st and 2nd? Love the Gallardo next to the R8

Sorry to disappoint you,

It's just that I'm burned out on car shows for awhile since pebble beach!

This was far from a car show.

Mostly driving some of the most awesome SoCal back roads that I've ever been on.

A solid 8 hours of driving, which at the end of I was pretty much dead.

Here is a good read:

Boy this sounds great. Is this event always the same time each year.

I'd love to come down and join in with my V10!

Some more details please.
