because the sonic in roseville is janky...if thats the same one im thinking about...the one in woodland you actually park and order from your car...also they come out on skates to deliver your food! oooo!.....lol...but its actually about 10-15 min from natomas/wingstop...so its not bad...we had an rpm meet a few months ago..it was cool...not every1 raced...plus being that it was a saturday...it was hard fitting every1 in on the same race...my race took so long that some people even left from the meet...lol..not much of a meet if you ask me...but hey if your down for sonic or rpm or other...post up ur votes....



1. cruise to sonic, woodland
-rspeed9i6

They are equal distances away almost.. And the one in Roseville is a POS. Its an old car wash hooked to a chevron or something.. Hella garbage.

Woodland one sucks too but its better than all of them up north. Only ones better are in Stockton, and Tracy, etc..

I'm down for a mountain run possibly, love to see who could keep up.

Well, how about everybody votes and we see which one has the most people.

Im down with salmon falls or sonic in woodland.



Salmon falls / Sonic for me


I did a quick google maps search up by salmon falls for places to eat....

Pizza
Bidwell street bistro
Bubba's burgers
Colina De Oro mexican restaurant ( has good reviews )

And of course taco bell, subway, carls jr, jack in the box, etc..


They are all basically located on Green Valley Rd. which is south of slamon falls road. It didn't find anything up north of salmon falls by Pilot hill.



Oh, and if you all choose salmon falls randy has to ride with someone
Unless he can take his girlfriends N/A FC....

This weekend is still good for hauling your FC as long as it's still open for you randy.

Just a nice cruise with good scenery and rotary powered vehicles following eachother



The following is not pointed towards anyone in particular, just letting everyone know...


Nothing crazy is allowed AT ALL. If you want to pass people for no reason other than just to do it, drift, or any other kind of stupid act please don't even bother showing up.

We don't want to draw attention from the local authorities as i'm sure most of us FC owners have a "few" "small" modifications that they may not like...

One more thing that's quite random but really ticks me off is this -

Ebay, Item number: 220379212948
Since direct links to ebay are forbidden...

They are 2 local FC owners in the stockton/sacramento area that I had helped out...

They seemed very enthused about Rx-7's but were'nt able to have much done to their cars due to money issues, so I decided to cut them a deal on a set of T2 J-spec manifolds, throttlebody and a TPS for WAY cheap.

As well as give them (free) my old S4 turbo which I had ported the wastegate on and installed a larger flapper door on and an S4 manifold which I had already removed the flapper door from and installed a bolt so it could be used as an EGT probe if wanted.

A few weeks later what do I find on ebay and craigslist.....


Makes me want to tell people tough **** if you can't afford good parts like that


Randy the price for your engine swap just went up.... just kidding


Am I wrong or ?

Damn wish I could go. I live off Francisco, the road right before Salmon Falls next to the lake. There's no way my FD will be done though. :/

If you guys have never been. There's a place called Big Dip in Folsom ( Fish Chips and Burger place) Years ago, after high school all the time we'd go get a burger and side of teriyaki sauce... you'll thank me. They also have a good Peanut Butter milkshake.

If you guys want to see some cute chics make sandwhichs and maybe get a beer..... go to Beach Hut Deli in El Do.

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=...num=1&ct=image


If you feel like sushi, and want to try an awesome place in El Do ... go to Sky Sushi It's a really modern sushi restaurant with big screen tv's playing the games, and authentic japanese decor. Cool place to hang out... (it's close to beach hut deli if not everyone wants sushi)

A moutain run is what it is.. a cruise but slowbies/inexperience drivers in the back. Obviously no stupid sh*t but there's no harm in spirited driving which is the whole point..

Can tell, you guys never do the insane canyon rides with motorcycles haha. You don't want to get heavy on the throttle. Thats how you pass the double yellow. Cages always pass the double yellow


As for the ride.....First question would be. How much of a drive?
Do you guys want a 30 minute drive?
Or
do you want like a half day drive to volcanoe, stumpy meadows, or whatever?
OR
Intense full day drive up to Lake Tahoe the back way. Eat at some shitty casino. Take some BOMB pictures, drive back 80 because we are all tired?
