Lambourghini Vancouver group drive for 2009!! You can tell it was going to be a beautiful day. I was quite refreshed in anticipation and they did not disappoint.
I counted as many as 15 Lambourghinis, 1 control and 2 guest cars when we first dispatched. As expected for such an event, there was a delay from the get-go and immediately there were some Lambourghinis that got lost from the group.
However, things started picking up and we got on our way to Cypress. I never really quite knew where were the best places to run while with these babies but Exit 8 up towards Cypress Mountain has to be among the list. The road was fairly long and straight thus allowing the power race-cars to do their magic. It is really quite the scene to hear the engines roar and the cars zipping by. First stop. There we had our first group photos.
About 20 minutes later, we were off to Squamish. It seemed like there were 3 cars that did not continue the drive. No matter, this group was enough to make some noise and grab attention. In fact, at one point, 2 of the guys were racing so fast (has to be faster than 160km/h) that the police got on our tails. They got away even though the rest of us were stopped for questioning. At first, I really thought we were stopped for group racing but I was well within the speed limit. Nothing will dampen our day, we got away with a little license check and some lost time.

So an hour or so behind schedule, we made it to the Squamish Starbucks. It is almost 1 in the afternoon and everyone was tired, thirsty and famished. We quickly grabbed A&W for some replenishments and continued to Nicklaus North.
After lunch, it was free for all and we were ready to depart sometime around 4. Anyways, we finally made it home at a quarter to 7 and a little less than a quarter tank of gas left in the Lambourghini. (Below: My parents, me and my GF, Sharon.)

And how was my first real driving experience of the Lambourghini LP 640? Well, let's just say I can get used to the driving but it will take a lot more for me to get used to the attention it brings. Oh, and during traffic jams, it is really quite irritating to rev up every few seconds, not to mention how much gas it eats up.
Man, it has been fun. What a day!!
