So what's the plan now? Palm Springs/Indio or OC Canyons? Either way I won't need the seat heaters yet, although it's been dipping down into the 70s these days on the west coast... brrr. Might have to buy a pair of socks.
Frank - I really hope you can make it on the 17th. It's been too long since you last brought your IM on a cruise.
Mike - no Palm Springs destination on this cruise. That will be on another trip that Vince will coordinate as an overnighter. That will be an awesome trip over the 74 Hwy on the mountain roads and great scenery.
The OC Canyon Cruise is still on for Saturday Oct 17th with a 10:00 morning rendezvous in Mission Viejo, south Orange County (3 miles south of 405/5 Fwy junction). Weather forecast calls for clear skies and 80 degree temps (so you won't need heaters Mike).
Hope you guys can join us!

So Far this date looks good for me too!
That would be awesome Speedster D!! Looks like we'll have a good turnout this weekend!
OC CANYON CRUISE is on for this Saturday!! Weather forecast calls for scattered clouds with temps in the upper 80's = perfect top-down cruising weather!
Here is the trip sheet for this Saturday;
1. Meet Saturday, Oct 10th, at 10:00am in Mission Viejo, Target parking lot on Alicia Pkwy exit (2 miles south of the 405/5 junction in Orange County). Those coming from the North (L.A.) turn LEFT onto Alicia. Those coming from the South (Sandy Eggo) turn RIGHT onto Alicia.

Group can then disperse after Laguna Beach with easy access to 5 Fwy (North or South) via Laguna Canyon Road (Broadway St. in Laguna Beach/Main Beach).

IM OUT
I suggest anyone going to this event, print or write down the directions just in case we lose the site again before the run....
Since Gerd is not coming with his GPS, we may get lost
there is no way to please everyone with the choice of weekends, but be advised, we tend to have a really good time, this is a fine bunch to run with, It would behoove you to try and make these runs if possible...These cars are made to run, not sit around looking at.....

Frank, I bet your dead battery problem is an bad alternator. I had the same issue. Check out the thread call dead battery. Lots of good stuff there.
Worn starters will kill one too.
Jim and everyone, thanks for a nice cruise and conversation. Great day, 85 degrees and sunny. Hope to see everyone again next time.

Then a friend of mine and I took speedie out to Anahiem convention Center for OC car show.. very cool stuff for next year too! I saw that Bugatta again.. man what a clean ride... What was the name of the guy and his house we saw that orange and black one at the BBQ?

Speedster D, My Brutha! We missed you on our cruise (GET A TiVo and watch the game later). The guy who invited us to his crazy car place was John Marconi (used to drive for Ferrari formula).
Here's a few pics from that day at Marconi's crib...

Larry, I put the lights in the mail today. You should get them in 2 days. Let me know. Great to get to enjoy a beautiful So Cal day last Saturday....HOT in those canyons but when I got to the coast it was all fogged in, Nice relief!
Thanks Mark.
about 10 miles north of Ocean Side it became foggy and traffic was bumper to bumper. It cleared about 2 miles inland on 78. Was a very nice day for the run.
Tnaks jim for organizing the event. Good to see every one.

Larry / Frank - that's awesome you guys made the trek all the way from Sun City & Escondido. I'm glad you had a good time on the cruise and made it home safely. Hope you can make it on our next run which will be an overnighter to Palm Springs. Video should be up tomorrow!
