Just wanted to add. The drive up north, even just on HWY 5, is pretty beautiful. The central valley of Norcal is interesting fields of rice, sunflowers, grapes, almonds, and everything. Once you get to Redding you have lake Shasta, rivers, and just beautiful forests all the way to WA.

I would recommend the drive.

Unless ... maybe, if you're quick .... if you have a non-certified, unlicensed, shade tree, "mechanic", overhauling your car's clutch's master cylinder, which hasn't been safety inspected by a certified inspector ....

Oh god yes! I had forgotten the need for a Certified Safety Inspector to check and certified every single change to a car.

I don't know what that means, but my lugs are just bling for my new rims on that other car. I'm sure they do no performance difference, especially with me driving. Best performance mod would be me dropping 30lbs.
