    Guys,

    In all seriousness, i live in San Diego and had to evacuate my pregnant wife and two small kids. We all could not fit in my 67 Gt500 so we took the SUV.

    We got to Palm Springs I dropped them off and I turned around and went back for my car. I got into my locked off development through a back seldomly used gate. The fire was about 1/2 mile away and I waited it out until I knew it missed us and left my baby in the garage.

    Others in my Socal shelby club were not so lucky, they lost cobras or other vehicles. This is not a club member but check out this Mustang in the driveway, at least I think it was a Mustang:
