So we have been invited to join the Z Club for a fun run and all around car BS session on Sat. May 24th, at 9am. They/we will be meeting at SimTec Motorsports in the Valencia Industrial Area. Craig, the owner of SimTec, is hosting. His shop specializes in Nissan/Datsun tuning, and, believe it or not, Corvair FI and turbo set ups. And he has a dyno if anyone is interested, bring cash!

Yeah, I know, but I'm still broke from the writers strike. So free driving is better for me.

The just come on out to Buttonwillow and hang out with all the P car guys.

I'm not going to run my car. Just going to watch the festivities and drink beer...

Hey Mike,

Do they have a proposed route? map? anything?

Posted by: Mike D. May 19 2008, 10:05 PM

Oh, yeah, the Standard SC run, I think. Lake Hughes to Lake Elizabeth to San Fransisquito to Spunky Canyon to Bouquet with a stop at The Oaks maybe, unless people want to go back to SimTec for some dyno pulls... They did say they would probably split the group into speeders and cruisers.

(A tricky way to bump)

Hey Mike, lets put a time on this puppy...

I am going to skip out. Turns out paintball conflicts... and it's been 3 months since I played paintball. The teener can get a turn on Sunday or Monday if the other run goes through... and it's closer to home in more "known territory."

But at least you get a free bump.

So i talked to Craig from SimTec and he said "sometime between 9 and 10". They are a late bunch! Plus some of them are doing the Fraiser Park Ojai to SB run. Kind of an all day thing which I can't do and several others are doing the local run.

Looks like we'll have some lite rain in the am. Hopefully not too much. But the run may be a little slower than normal.

I'll be there rain or shine and then judge from there.

I got no wipers.

I was planning on heading down around 7:30 or so but the possibility of rain worries me...
