All,
I am looking to organize a get together of SoCal folks for a little BS, a little driving and some grub. I am thinking the thrid weekend in July (7/19/03). I am looking for ideas on where to meet, where to drive and if there is anyone that can think of a speaker or some other good reason to do this. Drop me a line and give me your thoughts. We did one of these a few weeks a go (Thanks Milt) and we met in Long Beach. Maybe this time we could meet in the same place and then take a trip out towards Irvine Lake and drive some of them canyons. Theres a burger joint out there we could end up at too. Let me know. Thanks, Joe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/assimilate.gif) |

FYI; TRE in North Hollywood has a rally to Solvang scheduled for June 29/29. They usually get a good turnout.

Drew365,
QUOTE FYI; TRE in North Hollywood has a rally to Solvang scheduled for June 29/29. They usually get a good turnout. Sorry to ask but who is TRE? It's a little short notice for me, but I'd like to call them and see what the deal is. Please let me know. Thanks, Joe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/assimilate.gif) |

toad racing, Dave Buzaglou's company. They do some really nice cars...did my buddy's IROC clone. He's big into the R Gruppe (I think it's that one). They will have a lot of cars of the same vintage as ours.

Looks like a lot of 911s. I like them and all, but I do not like their tail lights too much.

Theres a burger joint out there we could end up at too. <snip> Our annual Ireland trip is tentatively (high airfares, bad $->euro rate may make me stay home this year) scheduled for that time period but I do have some input on the routing. The Ortega, and the Santa Ana mountain canyons are aggressively patroled by Irvine PD, OC Sheriffs and CHP on weekends. It's also freak'n hot by July but the driving is okay: plan on doing the speed limit (and take the dang race numbers off your cars!). A pleasant run would take you down PCH from Newport or Corona Del Mar (stopping at the impromtu car show North of Laguna to stare at the Ferarri and Aston Martin crowd cars) through Dana Point. You can stop at the Doheny State Park and park along the beach front (I see a lot of car clubs doing this) to BS for awhile and enjoy the scenery (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) . Then north-east through San Juan Capistrano and up the Ortega to a little speed limit-canyon carving looping back towards Irvine and the freeway. If turns out that I'm going to be here in July, I'd be happy to help organize something. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) Have fun, Kevin PS - I did the TRE New Years Day rally. It was fun but everybody got lost.... There were lots of VERY expensive pasta cars along with the usual p-car emergency number crowd. The sound of those Ferarris going through road tunnels was worth the ride though. |

PCH route sounds tight...driven it before. i was on my way to a job, and i had to take this 2 lane "mountain" style road. no cops anywhere. how can something in the middle of 4 or 5 cities be like in the middle of nowhere? this is an impromptu/abstract of how this road is. I think drifter jay migh know:
Hey JAY, you know the cajalco - lake matthews road? |

I went to the Long Beach get together and Breakfast and had a great time.
A half day trip would be awesome. Anything longer than that and I have to get double secret permission from the Wife.... |

Steve, the avatar looks great!
It's a little out of square, though. Use the dimensions 125 x 94 and it will be awesome!! |

The image itself may be. Check in your avatar settings.
No biggie, just trying to show off your car a bit. |

Thanks I appreciate the help!!
I love your picture. That's a priceless picture. I need to get some descent pictures away from the house and maybe a better angle. I will keep playing with the settings. Steve |
