        I recreated his last trip from LA (minus the tragic ending, thankfully) in my MX-5 a few years ago. Eerie and sad at the crash site.

        I went to the James Dean festival last weekend, in Fairmount, IN where he grew up. It has one of the best car shows around.

        I've driven that road. It's still nasty to drive and not near very much. The car is beautiful.
