Fairly Simple rules;


Last year we had a huge group, so this year I'm changing the "one lane only rule" to two. This means when driving as a group we'll only take up two paralell lanes. This means you'll need to pay extra attention when driving with the group. A lot of exits/turns seem to come up quick when in such a large group so be sure to bee in the right lane early. Also, make sure to let others into the lane when they signal. It's not a race, and it'd be terrible to have someone get lost just cause some jackhole didn't let them in. This also goes for regular traffic. Sure we're all together, but we don't own the road. Use common courtesy and let others in, and don't cut others off.

No excessive speeding. Drive with the flow of traffic/the group. If you get pulled over, no one's stopping for you. If you want to get ahead of the pack to get video of everyone passing or what-have-you, that's fine but you do so at your own risk.

Turn your Running lights (Parking lights) on while with the group to identify you as such.

No racing/erratic lane changes this can not be stressed enough. I know it's tempting to have a bit of fun when you're surrounded by other modified cars, but remember there's a time and place... this is not it.

Two-way radios and cell phones are encouraged, as well as cameras and camcorders, however... please use them in a safe manner. Preferably used by a passenger. I will be announcing what frequency we are using on the radios at each location.

Last but not least lets make it a fun trip. Again, drive courteously, cautiously, and safely. It's going to be a lot of driving with an everchanging scenery including some of CA's best coastlines. Enjoy it.
