Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise

My 3rd gen is mid-LB9->L98 swap, but my 4th gen will likely attend.

(P.S. Gotta call Dyno Don soon about freshening up my 77K mile T-5 to go back in with my 0-mile factory-spec L98.)

Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise

I signed up, but I don't know if I want to put my car through the mountains again before a big race.
Maybe I'll meet up at the bottom though!

Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise

You can cruise for free, but the $20 will get you an event t-shirt, bbq lunch and I thought I saw a raffle ticket also.


Julie, if you don't want to drive you can ride with me if you like.

Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise

That sounds like a good deal. I can still get my t shirt and lunch, and your car's bumpers will be safe!

Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise

Sounds good. I just signed up, paid, and sent the follow up emails to the addresses noted above. My dad and I will be driving the IROC. Should be a great time. Wont be able to make it to the show and race on Monday though.

Don, let us know if we are meeting at your shop. It would be really cool if we caravan together to the meet and show up with out own crowd

Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise

We should probably meet at Don's about 8am and leave shortly after since the official meeting is at 9am and leaving at 10am. That'll give us plenty of time.

Looks like it might be a little nippy up in Big Bear today. Looks like fine weather for the track tomorrow.

Good shot? More like awesome shot.

At that moment, our conversation was something like:

Her: "Plasma rifle is armed and ready."

Me: "Wipe out that semi. Leave no traces."

My memory is a bit fuzzy.
