Ofcourse

Half of the people going are "newcomers", not including me

Good Run Guys...

It was fun, but we werent really able to push it to our limits due to the weather (moist pavement, loose dirt). I was definately scared that my tail was gonna give out any second and spin-out.

Hah, did you guys see the 240sx drift and almost lose it?

Ill post pics and the video when I get the chance.

Hope to see you all at the next run.

PS. Vlad, got any plans for another one anytime soon?

Nice meeting everyone. Pity about the rain though.

We should set up another one fairly soon to make up for the rain. Oh and set it up for sunday. There's too much traffic on saturdays during the drive home.

Thumbs up

What's up fellas? Just wanted to say that it was a lot of fun meeting you guys and even though conditions were a little damp, it was still a fun run. Greg and I were able to cut our tails loose a little at the back of the pack.

BTW. Greg, your G has got some crazy burnout power bro! Where can I find a rooster tail for my car too?!? I'm so jealous...I have to go FI for sure now!

Vlad...nice job leading the pack and thanks for throwing it all together. I thought it was a nice turn out...not too big and not too small.

To the homie in the 240sx, I'm not sure what happened at the beginning of the run, I'm just glad that you didn't slap the rail or anyone else around you being in the middle of the pack. Maybe time for new tires or a suspension tuning?

Last, but not least...to the sedan that got pulled over by "5-0" right when we left for the run, so sorry bro. That totally sucked that you got nailed by that cop right from the get go. IMHO, I think you need a slightly quieter exhaust cuz the one you got is definitely an attention getter. I think that I heard you bone out before I saw the cop take off after you.

We most definitely have to do this again soon! Well worth the drive from HB to meet cool people and tear up the pavement! Take care everyone and hope to see you all at the next run!

+1 Traffic on the way home sucked. GPS took my a$$ from the canyons right into traffic on the 101 near Encino! WEAK!!

Im still wondering what the sedan got pulled over for?

He didnt seem to do anything.

Im guessing the cop just wanted to scare the whole cruise/meet?

It's actually a bit rare to hear of a ticket at a canyon run.

i guess this could be one of those "rare" occassions...
