Well Jenn, you've missed the last two SouthBay cruises. So pick a Saturday and set one up. PV is a great place. I'm sure most people would be up for a cruise. pick a local spot on a Saturday to meet up and i'll be there.

well, i'll wait if kevin is going to set one up, and maybe i'll set one up another time. besides i think i owe it to you guys.

i've missed cruises (and the last meeting) because i've had nothing but problems with my v6. But i don't think I'll have any more problems going on cruises or to meetings because i'm giving the v6 to my brother, and because i bought myself another one

injdinjn: oh i think i'll have to slow down a bit for you to keep up, but don't worry, i will

Some of us are slower than others (your new pic), but your new to you 305 might have a slight problem with my 350. But if my T.A. rips my engine apart before then I guess I will have to ride with you.

Kevin
I thought of a Angeles Crest cruise earlier this year, but have to wait until Nov because Madmax's weekends are tied up till then.
My idea is to meet at the McD's at I 15 and 138, about 9-10am.
take 138 to 2 then I will supply maps to a great place to eat in downtown LA near Olvaria st and union sta, lots of parking.
I was also thinking of inviting the GP club.

Actually I was thinking of getting a cruise going too...maybe seeing if GPL is up to putting together the October Super Cruise again, if not him then I would be willing...Id like to get a cruise going for GM Eternal(possibly a joint cruise if theres not bad blood between 2 clubs...Ive lost track of whos pissed at who and whos ignoring who so let me know) or a Little Tujunga cyn cruise over the hill to Santa Clarita and possibly further...hopefully we can get back to being a more active club!

EDIT: I also found a very good site on canyon cruising ediquite, who leads the pack, signaling, and avoiding getting the club busted in the event of a cruise mishap...

Canyon Driving

check it out...very informative!

Nice car Jenn! You now can keep up with anyone of us and sound like the rest of us when you change the stock muffler.

I was thinking of October 25th because in November it gets really cold up there. Perhaps November 8th instead?
I was also thinking of doing the route east and ending up at Ontario Mills Mall again, but I have no preference if you know of something better.

Not that you'd care but... I am out of commission from Oct 23-Nov 9. The 25th I'll be in a airplane hanger at the Pomona Fairplex answering a multiple choice question every 3 minutes

So tell us about your new car.
And I would complain to the board regulars about not mentioning your birthday, as I don't remember it being mentioned, which one was it.

which one what? person? i think it was trans manny am.

hm. its '92, V8, TBI, 305, 25th anniversary RS. it's nice to have power windows = }
the interior is pretty much in mint condition.
outside looks good, but the front bumper needs to be replaced. original rims as well. couple nicks here and there in the paint, might give 'er a new paint job in the future.
the engine looks really good, if you ignore the clear coat the dealer sprayed on it.
i'll post pics this weekend maybe.
that's about it.

You guys want the best little secret canyon? not long- but very demanding. Turnbull Cayon road- run it from Whitier side towards Hacienda Heights. That'll test your skills and white knuckles.
