Hi Everyone,
Like the SoCal TT, this is another great event. The last two years took us south through Idylwild and through the hills to Lake Henshaw towards Julian. Another great group of people with some great cars and fun roads. There's a lot more information on the site so I recommend you take a look. Here's a clip from the website and the link:
Since the demise of such epic road racing events as the Mille Miglia, Targa Florio, and of course the Carrera Panamericana (or Mexican Road Race) a void has been left for those wishing a pure open road experience. Modern day events such as the California Mille, Colorado Grand, Copperstate 1000 are truly a special experience but can be too rich for some budgets and exclusive to some years and models of vintage cars. Full race events like La Carrera, Classic Adelaide, and Targa Newfoundland are challenging and fun but dangerous and far from home. The Carrera California offers vintage car owners a chance to hit the road for a couple of days of spirited driving along selected Southern California roads, retracing paths traveled by early motoring enthusiasts.
