His name is Paul...if he ends up getting there before me and you see someone that looks lost. I'll tell him to look for a red 8. See you on Sunday.

Hi guys new to the Area. I just moved here from South Carolina. I just went through the 46 pages of this and it seem to be fun. I'm thinking of going to the next meet if I can (I still getting settling in) so if you guys see a white one stock looking exept for lowering and Revi intake with Ohio plates, that be me.

Hondas, welcome to Cali!

It'll be my first time going to this meet but you should make it on Sunday. It looks like it is going to be a good sized group and you can hopefully make some new friends.

Just meet us @ the mobil station in the morning (Since you live pretty close to there anyways)

I hope you had a chance to check out some of the vieo links as well. Yes, you will have fun. Make sure you make it ot this one, looks like it will be one of the bigger meets.

It would be nice to have thosewho checked in earlier, to let us know whether they are coming or not. I know I will be there, and I should be bringing Lepser4, Red22, and PaultheNissanguy with me. Snowfl8k will not be coming though.

If you're going, just add your name to the list so we can get an idea of the turnout.

Ok, here's a list I compiled of those who have checked in, or have indicated an interest in coming.

Addictive (obviously, he's the thread leader)
Xped (obviously, he's our cinematographer)
Micahel (our pace car )
Gerael (is interested)
RX8SaxMan (is interested)
RX8Inch (I met him for the first time last meet)
Mahuna (I saw him in the thread...you coming?)
DynamicDookie (has come in the past...you coming again? Sorry, forgot your friends screenname with the white one)
Hondasareforkids (is interested..and has one intriguing exhaust in his avatar. I think it is made by racing Beat)
Stealthfox (talked about coming in hi 7)
anyone else you guys have heard from and should be on the invitation list

I'm trying to get more guys from the San Bernardino thread to come. Speeddemon has indicated a strong interest in coming, but something always seems to come up. Carribeanspice boy has expressed interest as well.

I hope your joking dude....you're coming right? Or are you gonna scratch out again? You only live once...and there is only one November 6th this year. Like I put it to the San Bernardino folks. We are approaching rain season, and this may be one of the last glorious weekends we have for a couple of months. The weather is going to be perfect...what would you rather be doing?

Last time I drove Ortega was prob 3 years ago...so can't really remember that well but from what I remember I think its more intense, we drive various style of roads such as fast sweepers, roads with lot of tight corners....I can guarentee it will be fun. Are you comming?

There is always a lot of excitement the days leading up to one of these meets. Lot of people want to come and experience it for the second, third, fourth time, but there are those new comers that become too nervous about showing up, and they flake out.

I brought a friend one time, and he ended up leaving his car behind and he sat in the passenger seat with me. He was scared that he wouldn't be able to keep up, or that he wasn't a skillful driver. He was very dissapointed at the end of the day that he didn't actually drive himself. He came the next month and had a smile from ear to ear at our first stop on Stunt, and was almost overwhelmed by the time we hit lunch at the coast.

He's come three times now.

Moral of the story, I know a lot of the new people are thinking too much about this, and get to the point where they just are too nervous to show up. I would say come, and if you feel too nervous to drive the first time, sit as a passenger, and then you might feel better aboutt he second meet.

And as a reminder, we always keep everyone in our rear view mirror. This way, you can watch how the person in front of you takes a corner, what speed they are add, when they start breaking, and so on. Just make sure you leave plenty of room between you and the car infront, and in back of you. These are public roads and we need to be aware of those that are on the roads with us. There are a lot of motorcycle and cycle riders, as well as other car clubs up there, all doing the same thing.

I hope to see more new faces, and some of them ugly ones from last time .

^^ HAHA, digging the new avatar.

Lets have a good turnout this weekend, the weather should be great!

If you really need a reason for going on Sunday, how about this:

- You drive a SWEET car, get out there and enjoy it with fellow enthusiasts.
