San Diego - Scenic Drive on 2/12/06

Date: Sunday, 1/12/06

Reserve this date and join the San Diego RX Club for its first drive of the year.
We will be heading out to San Diego's east county to cover Old Hwy 80, Hwy 94 and other locations. Possibly check out the Desert Tower and then have a late lunch at Major's Diner in Pine Valley. Be sure to let me know if you may join us for the run sl I can get an idea of how many for lunch.

Some of you cannot get off for a Saturday drive so I have set up this Sunday run. Might even be less traffic. In any event, if should be a good time.

More details at this Saturday's monthly meeting at Fudrucker's in Mira Mesa. Also be ready to talk about:
- Long Beach GP in April
- K1Speed challenge with SoCal
- open track events


Later,
John

People can either post here that they are coming or they can send me an e-mail at the following address and I will then post a list back here either late Friday or early Saturday. Send response to:
GTU88rx-drives@yahoo.com

See the following link and then go to the end of the document. Follow that link to the detailed maps of the run.

See all on Sunday,

I'll have to see if my friend is up for some driving in his new car, if we're not going to the wild animal park. I'd bring the Evo but it needs new tires (already).

Unfortunately his new car is a boinger too.

It would be great to get some video of the drive. However, I would suggest that you do not just follow. If you print out a copy of the detailed maps, we can talk before the start and I can give you some locations for good action shots. Much better than shots from pulling up the rear. Also, when we stop for breaks, you can head out early and set up for a drive-by.

Check this link for the maps.

If you are interested in doing this for us, let me know and I might be able to annotate the maps with some general areas for photo ops.



See ya then,
John

I'm good, but thanks anyway. I paid Seth at Pure Sports a visit and picked up a used starter. Nice fellow.
