With GT3 seats, Cross coilovers, and 19" wheels, I don't think it would be too enjoyable for me. I love the GT3 seats, but for me they are only good for a couple hours. Now if my car was still stock, I would have no problem driving it on long trips. For long trips, that's what my other cars are for.
I'm trying to talk my wife into going, but the problem is that we are going down to cali at the end of this month. I'm not sure if she want to take road trips this year.

We enjoy the trip, usually try to do 400 to 500 miles a day, hit some twisties, hit the tourist spots...

I have considered it--it's easy for me since I live in San Diego. Is it worth going to?

Same here, I'm from San Diego as well. I was browsing the webpage, looks pretty neat, and doesn't come around too often to San Diego.
I second that question, has anyone here been to this before that can share any stories?
