Nobody showed? Damn. I was exhausted from canyon runs with Haddad and the 5th gen guys. Went to sleep at 3AM, woke up at 8AM, drove to the Cars 'n Coffee in Woodland Hills (it got shut down last weekend and the cops were telling people to GTFO by order of the property owner) met up with the 5th gens and Haddad in his G8, and went cruising @ 10AM on Mulholland and the other mountain/canyon roads in that area, including the Snake (I don't think the photographer got any pics of our cars because some old dude on a Harley had just crashed going around The Snake), cruised down to Neptune's for some lunch, then hit up PCH and Topanga/Old Topanga Canyon with the last remaining 5th gen (SS/RS). It was pretty funny because at the beginning of the cruise, Mike chased down a 99% custom widebody Lotus with his G8.
Here's a video taken by that exact Lotus in the area that he got chased down by Mike (in a family sedan):

After the 5th gen and I ended up back at the Cars n Coffee location that we met at earlier, my relatives called and told me to drop on by - which was a mistake because I had no food all day (until 1hr before) and been running on adrenaline since 10AM (it was 4PM). Got there and pretty much collapsed and couldn't drive back home (I could have if I didn't get out of the car LOL). If you say I couldn't have been on an adrenaline high, well you try taking on those roads with bald front street tires.

i've got a small jack (not small like a spare tire jack) and a couple jack stands. i wouldn't charge anything, because i would just be a helping hand. haha. is the car drivable?
