Acura - Honda Meet, January 16th 2000
 
Our second event on January 16th started at Kakaako Waterfront Park. Unlike our last event, the day started bright and sunny and we had far better turnout this time. We started with 4 NSXs, an Integra GS-R, Integra Type-R, and 2 Honda S2000s. We made quite a scene at the park. I guess most people don't get a chance to see a bunch of Honda's finest all together.

Our route took us down Ala Moana towards the Ward Ave. freeway onramp. This proved to be that hardest part of the whole drive since the lead group of 4 NSXs got separated from my group of Integras and Hondas.

We finally got reunited on Kalanianaole highway just before Koko Head. From there it was off through the twisty sections around Hanauma Bay and the Blow Hole.

We made a stop at Sandy Beach park to stretch our legs and snap a few pictures for the folks suffering through winter snow storms. :-) Since it looked like we might run into some rain, Frances and I decided to put our tops up.
From Sandy Beach we drove through Waimanalo and into Kailua for lunch at Pizza Hut. As an added treat, Pflueger Acura picked up the tab!

Our return trip to Honolulu was via H-3, the sound of the cars echoing through the tunnels was pretty amazing (especially Keene's Comptech exhaust system)! We wrapped up at Moanalua Park, the perfect end for a fun day of socializing and driving. As the summer draws closer we will surely plan more events.
