I did the same thing on friday afternoon on my way to santa maria, shot throgh malibu and went up the coast. i skipped stunt but took the rest at a fast not cruise speed. Had my wife and daughter with me so i wanted them to experince what i have done to some degree. i posted some pictures form the trip (not in malibu) in solvang in the san berdo thread.

Ladies and Gents....
I'm BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!
How is everyone?!
Sorry I vanished for a while but as some know, I moved out to Newport Beach and started a new school full time. I managed to find the time to check in today and to my surprise...Its still going!
So, What do you guys say?! Wanna set up another Malibu Run? for old times sake?

In the time i have been gone, i have aquired 2 dents and a smashed bumber (Some *** hole slammed into me in the parking garage and took off.... ). On the other hand, I got me a new toy, 1977 Honda CB550 Motorcycle. I have been doing the malibu cruses with that lately :c)


My baby needs to breathe!
Lets do this guys!

Thought you died, or sold the 8 around the same time you got that old Chevy and changed schools. Glad to see your alive.

I ran my last Malibu run a little while back. I brought out some of the guys from the San Bernardino area and had some fun. Xped had quite a scare, check out the video from the last meet...I was just behind him.

You still running the Nos?

Good to hear from you Dan... Hope you get your car fixed, but don't feel too badly though. Seems as though a lot of us have been having some bad luck w/ body stuff lately. Me, w/ my rock chips, Jorge w/ windshield, sunroof, and side mirrors, Keith with his bumper etc. etc. We all love driving, so there's no way we're going to have showroom, mint-condition cars...

wOOt... Malibu lives on...

Adictive!!! Wow, glad you're still alive and kicking. I had started to think you were just cruising around in your Chevy these days.

The Malibu Cruise had started losing steam every month so Keith threw together what was known as "The Last Malibu Run". It seemed to be a good turnout since some of the San Bernardino guys came out to Malibu as well.

I'd still be up for a cruise, just probably not a monthly one any more. How about we do one next month before the rainy season hits us and we'll keep this going every other month or every 2 months after that?

What else is new with you? Any new mods? How's the Nos? How's Newport treating you? etc etc....

I found this website that has videos. (Like that's original)
Anyways, it's cool because they have all sorts of categories.

www.vmix.com

For those of you that were at the August Malibu run, go to the section labeled "DigiDrink - Action Sports".

There is a video called "Chasing The Touge". It's about underground canyon racing.
I thought I saw some footage of Malibu, but I wasn't sure. Then, at about 1:25mins, there is a guy w/ a mini talking/driving. It's the guy we saw w/ the tricked out mini.

Anyone remember this pic by detrich?

Scremn, any time you want to head down here just let me know and we'll head down to Fast Freddy's.

So when's the next Malibu run???? It's going to start raining soon so maybe we should think about getting one last one in before the rainy season.

You guys all ready for SevenStock? Any new mods planned for the event?

i don't worry about the price of gas too much. i remember when it was going above .50 cents a gallon everyone complained. so i won't worry about the price, remember some of the mods we do could buy gas for almost a year..
