anyways, thanks again for coming Ricco hope to see you next time. (time, date, location pending) :D

I think the suggestion was to give Glendora Mountain Road (GMR) a try. This is a very technical and challenging road. I am going to invite Robert Baltazar (from Glendora, in his Black 2nd Gen) to lead this (with your permission) as he knows this road very well.
This route, like our drive last Saturday, can be weather dependent. Will make a point of keeping up to date on the status of GMR and let you know.
The 3rd Saturday in January (the 15th) works really well for me.
Thanks again for a great time last Saturday!
P.S. For lunch, I highly recommend "Legends" in Upland (hamburgers, etc) or if the group wants Mexican Food again, Casa Jiminez in Upland is good, too!

no you dont have to have an 8, but a rotary is highly recomended..... (whats a pony?)
also we (friends) like to try and do other runs in between the "rotary" meets. if you are interested in hanging out more then once a month, feel free to let me know.
Thanks ricco for the advise. considering it is a LONG weather dependant run, mabe we should make it kinda of a tenative thing untill that day. kinda like we did last time. mabe have a shorter not so weather dependant rout as plan B.
:D
just a suggestion, talk to you all later!
P.S. i guess i should post all of this on the RX-7 site also.
P.S.S. below are a few pics from the last run we were talking about. (look how pretty the silver and yellow8's are!!!)

I made the ride on Glendora Mountain Road from Upland to Glendora on Saturday, to refresh my memory of the road -
Well, it's an awesome drive - but not one that should be done FAST in a group. I took it in my RX8 and I don't think I was going faster than 40 MPH at any point, and it was still a highly entertaining drive.
Lots of the road is two lane (barely) without a center stripe, and NO shoulder. Lots and lots of "S" turns, many of them blind, so long following distances and "reasonable" speed is indicated.
Also, there was a pretty strong presence of the Sheriff's Dept. at a couple of key spots, complete with radar guns and binoculars.
Even so, it was a highly entertaining drive - I still say the earlier the better, to minimize the presence of other traffic.

a good place to eat in Rancho Cucamogna is Legends Burgers It's 4 minutes away from the 210 freeway. maybe we can meet there for lunch and then go on a local drive.

what ever you think Riccio, we will be in your teritory this time, so we are pretty much going to trust your better judgment. god thing is we still have plenty of time, as it is almost a month away.
Just let us know on both RX-8, and RX-7 club web sites.
:D

I dont know if you all have heard of "Donut Man" (a donut store in Glendora off of lone hill ave)
they serve very tasty donuts that are oversized.
we can possible meet there if wanted... then drive through GMR.
