Sat.
horse back riding on Pebble Beach. followed by scenic cruise in Monterey + Monterey Bay Aquarium. dinner back in SF's "Coco bang". had some FIERCE bul dak (fire chicken). after dinner, glued to toilet for the rest of the nite.

Sun
Napa Valley. 11am - 6pm was farting out cabernet. sent both entrees back at dinner - pork tenderloin over done, quiche cold - first time in my life.

Monday
10am back at wineries. rest of day + tuesday = blah blah blah

Yup. Place isn't as fancy as Chicago Indoor, but that can be a good thing.
No, it's definitely not as fancy, but for go-karting they have a great set up. I've been there twice and both times I sucked it up.

Yeah, the carts felt a little sloppy, but I really like the 2 level thing. CIR has enough room to do that, although building a second story would take some time and money...although if they could combine it into 1 giant track 3

What do you consider "sucked it up"? Track record is like a 24.5 second lap. My friends and I were in the 26's and the general range of people there that night was around 26-32 sec range. The secret to that track, like CIR, is don't brake

My friends (both very good auto-xers) were running high 25s and low 26s, and I was running 28s and by far the slowest car on the track. We were with a group of regulars apparently, but I was a LOT slower than most.
