ill be coming out of Corona, so i planned on leaving around 630ish....i think 30 minutes should be good to arrive at 7ish. also keeping an eye on the weather, they are calling for rain AGAIN

 

Yeah rain yet again.
This is really getting annoying, tough keeping a car clean.
So much crap on the roads!

 

I will be there early, probably before 7am

 

New member and S-Type R owner here. I'll make there--if it's dry. of course.

BTW, please, WATCH YOUR SPEED if you're taking the 405 South and passing the Long Beach area. There are one or two CHiP smokies on patrol in that area every Saturday just waiting for over-enthused Cars 'n Coffee cruisers. One is in an unmarked car. Believe me, I learned the hard way last December.

 

Well if everyone is going to get there early Ill be there by 7-7:30 depeding on traffic, guess I wont be drinking that much friday night. Going to go rain or no rain! damn the weather

GregJ

 

rain or shine, ill be going....i propose a nice group picture, and then maybe a shot of each individual vehicle or set up by model type... it would be cool to get a group STR photo too

 

my car is kinda dirty, is anyone else going to wash their car? I know is seems like a dumb question put if its gonna rain I dont know if I want to wash it ... ill be going rain or shine so there will be at least 2 STR's

 

Lookin good so far guys
Could be a realll pic fest here too!
Anyy pics of ANY dirty cars will be removed immediately.....ALL cars must be detailed to within an inch of their lives

 

BTW, sorry if I missed it, but how do we register?

 

Classic I have your name already up, I have been keeping up with the posts....

So whats it going to be rain or shine? this weather has been so wierd.....we go from sunny blue skies morning and afternoon to dark cloudy skies in the evening and then it dumps at night, to be blue and sunny again the next day.

I guess as long as it rains at night, and the vehicles are tucked on their garages its all good!

 

rain or shine..........im there

and ill wash the car, however if its raining its gonna be dirty again

 

All our So Cal Guys could also look at meeting sometime soon at the Super Car Sunday in Woodland Hills. Its every Sunday and seems to be going really strong.

OK, thanks David.

The way I see it, these cars were designed to be driven in the rain--just a wee bit more carefully. But a torrential downpour is no fun. Let's play it by ear.

 

For those that have registered I am putting together some real cool gift bags with some great detailing goodies.........surprise!

 

sounds great guys, I really hope it goes well for you
Hopefully it doesn't and at the risk of please don't forget your CAMERAS!!
We don't wan to have a thread dedicated to this and someone posts up

Just my worth.

All the best guys

 

funny i went looking for my camera last night, and i cant find it....gotta look some more tonight..i still havent completely unpacked from moving yet.... ugggg

 

I'm going to run in the Santa Monica Sports Car Clubs TSD Rally tonight. I am not sure how late it's going to go, but if the rain comes in its going to make the long drive to Irvine in the early am much less inviting. So my reservation is a big maybe pending the weather.

 

Funny, I was there. That's my friend's silver 'n blue-striped '63 Drogo-bodied Ferrari GTO in the photo gallery. One of 2 in the world like it:

There were other Drogo-bodied GT's and GTO's during that era, but most of them were the ugly "Breadvan" style with the big square window in back. This one is slick, smooth, and gorgeous!

Anyway, back to Jaguars...
