Ok kids, here's the official thread!

This Sunday, July 24th, we're meeting at 11 AM in the Ralph's parking lot on Lincoln Blvd southbound in Marina Del Rey. The address is listed below. This Ralph's is directly at the west mouth of Rt. 90.... actually, if you come 90 west, I believe you'll need to make a U-turn to get into the lot. It's right next to a large apartment complex.

We'll be meeting at 11 AM, and hanging out for a half an hour to make sure the group is all there.

From there, we will be going north on Lincoln to the beginning of PCH, and continue north on PCH into Malibu. In Malibu, we will switch over to Rt. 23 eastbound. Rt. 23 is a very twisty canyon road, but tends to get some traffic. For the run through, I STRONGLY reccommend making it a slow cruise. At the conclusion of 23, there's on-ramps for the 101, and a large shopping complex. This would be a good place to park... we can put the cars together for photos, chill, whatever. From there, people can make runs back through the canyon in smaller groups... I believe there's talk of filming, which would be facilitated by smaller groups. Naturally, when it's all said and done, we split... 101 north, 101 south, back through the canyon, wherever.

Of course, activities are open for debate... I'm not planning this, just trying to keep it together.

The other debate is food: Steve showed us a restaurant on PCH that looked good, I'm just concerned about size/parking. There was also a few fast-food-y type joints at the shopping complex at the conclusion of the cruise. Thoughts?

But the definate:
We're meeting at 11 AM, 7/24/05, at this Ralph's:

4311 Lincoln Blvd.
Marina del Rey, CA

And I'll be there:

I will be bringing the same video camera again. Along with a nice camera and a nice tripod.

I am also looking to try and set something up inside the car as well.....hmmm

Ary: Weren't we always? :P

We'll go through it slow the first time, but after we stop (where I parked when I got a ride in the Lotus), we can always re-run it a bit more, um, spirited.

Although, if this is it for a head count, all bets may be off....

ouch, well keep us posted if it will happen or not.

if we re-run 23 a bit more spirited i wouldnt mind having a camera man sitting shot-gun for sh*ts & giggles

Apologies Ary, I meant all bets are off as in the first pass through 23 may not be a slow cruise . The meet's happening even if it's just me by my lonesome.

You wont be alone matty. Did you get your wheel bearing fixed?

I am having some reservations about running this weekend. I think I need to do the water pump and tranny fluid change this sat just to be safe.
