Hi, I would love to join y'all on 1/26/14! I had a great time last year and am looking forward to another great time. So far it's just me but I will continue to work on the lovely Mrs V to join us.
Happy New Year and many thanks, Vic

 

I will try to make it also. I have some repairs to complete first.

 

I may also have a guest along for the ride.

 

And lunch----my apologies fer multi posts I am havin problems with mah communicatin device.

 

Dave:

Please sign me and Jen up for lunch!

We had a great time at the Monterey event but were unable to attend the Marin one so are looking forward to this one!

I think I remember you mentioning that you were looking into adding seat heaters to your XK8 - did you ever do that?

If so, please fill me in on the details as that might be a useful addition for a January drive!

 

Thanks to all for the responses. Coming back from Cabo tonight and will update the details in the next few days. No Jags down here!

 

All,

Please note that the address for Solano Community College is 4000 Suisun Valley Road. My mistake. Below are the attendees so far. If it's not right let me know.

Looks like the WaterDragon came down with a case of the sniffles.

I have a sound like primary tensioner has gone bad, a light weight rattling noises from that area that persists after removal of both drive belts.

My plan is to pull a valve cover today and see if I can view the primary tensioner enough to confirm this, and if so, Buck and I will plan on changing the primary tensioners, but leave the chains in place, assuming they are in good shape. I don't think this will be technically difficult since it is just bolting and unbolting stuff, just time consuming.

But, this will not be completed before this run, so I think I am going to miss it this time.

 

Sorry to hear that. I was looking forward to see you.

 

Thats what happens when you keep messing with things !

Just come in Buckshaws car....... we were looking forward to seeing you

I'm bringing the Series III and as if that wasn't enough I'm bringing my DJI Phantom 2.......

I thought I could go to this but turns out I have to be in fricken Orlando. I'll be with you guys in spirit!

 

Ouch!! I thought you were in for a moment. See you on the next run.

 

All,

Here is the list as of Today. If you can't make it let me know. There is still time to join in. I need to finalize the reservations by Thrusday evening.

Got our XJ-S back from the body shop & had new thermostats installed. Had a mystery noise in the X300 diagnosed and repaired, so a bath for the cats and I believe we're ready. Really looking forward to it!

 

Great! See you on Sunday morning.

 

Ok,

I can come with Buck for lunch tomorrow

Jeff

 

See you tomorrow. We changed the lunch to 12:45. We will be at the Blue Victorian Winery at 11:15. It is a mile from the restaurant.

 

I won't be able to stay for lunch. See y'all soon.

 

What a great day! Many thanks to Dave for setting this all up. The winery and restaurants were wonderful, and the company was hilarious. And I learned a lesson today. Never follow Rhett and Heather...

More pics from others to come - I'm sure...
