So-Cal RX 2006 Annual Multi-County Road Tour - 4
Type: Cruise
When: 4/15/2006 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Where: Ventura County
Ventura, CA
Contact: Latross Carroll


The cruise is back! This is the annual club run through some of Cali most beautiful scenery. Get ready for this 300+ mile odyssey. The run will begin in Ventura County and take us trough Santa Barbara, Santa Maria and San Luis Obispo Counties, culminating back in Ventura County. And if you believe it, this all happens in one day. This is one of those “don’t miss events”, so DON’T MISS IT!

The club plans this as a road touring trip, which will essentially start in Thousand Oaks and end in Santa Maria in time for a hearty lunch, but that's only the first of 2 parts. We've also outlined a return route for the truly "hardcore".

Please refer to the information below for detailed route information. Be advised that the actual route is subject to change and is based on prevailing road conditions.

Prepare a copy of this information for your reference. I plan on getting up to date info regarding the status of the roads we'll travel. It is essential that you all plan accordingly for this lengthy road trip. A fair majority of the roads are county maintained, meaning that some of them may vary in texture and in grade.

We'll make a few rest stops along the way.

The majority of the trip will consist of driving through canyons and vast mountain ranges. From LA through Ventura, southern San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties. Some drivers have clocked upwards of 350 to 400 miles on this event. We've adopted the name "Enduro" for this 4th annual event. 30-40 or so rotary cars out for a spirited road tour is truly something to experience.

Bring your cameras, and other essential items needed for a road trip of this degree. I know that gas prices really suck, but I try not to dwell on it. Sometimes you just have to get out and enjoy the experience of touring on the open road when you can. I hate burning gas in traffic. I'd rather do it out on the open road.

Contact LC for any questions or concerns. LC

I need to install my CD player and the junkyard $20 400 watts amp. and at the same time, junk the RB rear sway bar. hmmm. the last run killed my beer belly.

 

awesome!

it will be my first time. im going for sure.

 

np and no, it should be us saying thanks to the socal boys.

 

I was planning on actually driving my FD on this one... guess that isnt going to be happening. Cant wait to get it back on the road! The Del Sol is starting to kill me.

 

I'll be there in the beater FC.. might take the rx-2 if I can really lean out the a/f during cruise to get me some better gas milage.. hehe

 

Anyone wanna carpool for this? I'm too cheap to fill up twice and I don't wanna drive my FD.

Wacky, I'm riding shotgun with you! Bring some donuts that morning okay?

 

Looks like fun. REPU wants to go!

 

In that case, I will install the stock springs back on since you're over 100 lbs over weight. And tehre is no need to wear a mini-skirt.

 

Can someone PLEASE SUMMERIZE this!
.......................................i'm gettin an Headache reading this T/T......L/T......!!!

Keep checking thread for updates. Thanks

For those of you that need help on the run, you can get FRS or GMRS 2 way radios at fry's electronics for cheap (ie. less than $20 for a pair). Look in their Friday ad.

Hey Kunfuroy,
Nice maps.. but I think we should change this one to the one I highlighted in Blue. Looks much more fun!
