I'm planning a fun run in San Diego County this summer - July or August.
Looking at a 2-hour run with a mix of technical 3rd gear switch back, higher speed sweeper, and brief freeway sections. We ran the course today and it was a blast. There is a convenient stop about in the middle for coffee and a pit stop and loads of very nice scenery. A clean MAF and good brakes are a must. A change of underwear is optional, but not a bad idea...
Would look something like this.
8:30 - Coffee/Doughnuts at my place
9:00ish - Hit the road (it can get a wee bit hot in the back country where all the twisties are so early is better)
Post-run - Back to my place for lunch on the barbeque or to the coast for lunch at a local haunt - we can figure that one out later
Who might be interested?
BTW I saw a beautiful black cab black top classic grey interior near the El Cortez yesterday (and had no cards darn it). Would make a great addition to the California crew.
Thanks - Joe

Count me in......
Question. About "A change of underwear is optional, but not a bad idea...". Is that before we come to meet people or after the run? Or is that why they call it a run?
Roland
Roland - after one particularly technical section the spare drawers might come in handy...
i think we'll have a couple of supercharged cars going by then too
OK, got the run pegged and dialed into the GPS. Which date works best for folks?
10 July
17 July
24 July
17 is clear for sure - 24 is probably good too - 10 is maybe too soon for me
Thanks for the PM
Count me in!
Sounds fun. Thanks for "waking me up" too! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] The best day for me is the 17th but the others can work as well.
rader coming to an event - this i have to see
rick - cool - it will be good to see you again
lol - i guess i'd better get my wheels dropped off
Any of those Saturdays is fine, probably slight preference to the 17th and 24th.
Roland
OK - 17th it is. Look for some additional postings.
Would love to get some additional folks from the surrounding areas. Brian, Jared - I know its a bit of a drive from SB, but would love to have you guys come on down if you can.
This will be primarily a driving event, so bring your gloves, but Roland and I will look at the post-run activities and come up with something simple. Eats, drinks, and cars. If we can figure out how to include some hot women Rader I know that will keep you interested [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]
I think any of those weekends could work for me too
cheers
Phil
day job is getting in the way again; on the 7pm from Baltimore to LAX Friday night prior. i'm a longshot at best.
buzz down and crash here?
p.s. - ring me up re: supercharger install
finally i think i see the light at the end of the tunnel and can get my car prepped for this run - whew!
i still have a bit to do, including mounting new tires, and hopefully getting the new top done, but all of that has to wait until after i finish the supercharger work, which has been held up by a bracket
looking forward to this though - it has been entirely too long since i last drove the car
Me too!

If I missed anyone in the area, or anyone who would like to drive a bit to join us - please jump on in and let me know - the more the better (beer is cheaper by the case [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]

I'd love to make this run - but getting my rolling restoration ready for a serious run is a big challenge. Gotta finish alignment, fix the new tranny fluid leak. Grrrrr... Count me as a long shot for now, but likely for a fall run!
Hey, don't forget me! Still the 17th? When we getting the meeting time and location?
