I used to live out there off of Carbon Cayon. Drove it every day and night for years in the early seventys. No cars and full out all the time. Haven't driven it in years -- too many vehicles get in the way. About what I figure will happen Sat. night.:sm_up_there::rolleyes::rolleyes2::rolleyes: :sm_up_there:

I'd say on the order of 75 +- a little. Gas is cheap, so hopefully that helps. :thumbs_up:

But, ripple effect may be too damaging if they fail.:crutches::huh::drink:

Lots of them there foreigners are beginning to make some slick V8 vehicles. Honestly, that Hyundai Genesis is loaded with great features, technology and V8 power at an awesome price. Actually, and I'm part of this, corporations are becoming rapidly more globalized and diversified. There is tons of American talent in engineering and deisn working for foreign based companies. The reality is those corporations are more like international entities now. This is a whole different, fascinating, and occasionally frightening subject. But I digress.

For those of us that want play time with old fashioned V8s and make stupid power, that isn't going anywhere. The aftermarket alone will support it for decades and decades. Or at least until the commie-pinko-hippie-tree-huggers manage to kill all the fun in the world that is. :pot_stir:

Here is a guide to where we're going. This is the entire route.

Here is a visual guide. I will be handing out a packet with the directions and this information at the meet. It also has my phone number in case anyone gets lost. If anyone has a walkie talkie, please bring it and we can use those to keep in contact as well. If anyone also wants to register at motorgen.com and suggest other routes or suggestions we want to continue running events so that would be excellent. Here is a basic guide on what we're doing. More detailed information can be found in the link above if you want a specific address.

We're meeting at Nick's Burger in Fullerton. Here is what it looks like:



From Nick's we will be heading from the 91 to the 57 fwy where we are exiting Imperial. From the Imperial off ramp you will go straight and we're going to meet back up at the Borders parking lot. It looks like this:



After we all meet at Borders we are going to caravan and go through Carbon Canyon. Once we get through Carbon Canyon we are going to turn right onto Chino Hills Parkway. We will then pull over at the Carl's Jr. in the Chino Hills Marketplace before hitting the 71 fwy. The Carl's will be on the left hand side and looks like this:



After meeting back up with everyone we'll hit the 71 and head out to Riverside via the 91. Our ultimate goal is the Mission Inn. It'll be on the right hand side and looks like this:



Everyone can take pictures and we can check out all the lights and displays on the grounds. After we finish up we can hit up a Denny's or something if people feel up to some food. We've learned a lot from the last cruises so this should be smooth. We'll have plenty of maps and everything should be simple. I'll see you all there. Hit me up on Motorgen if you have any questions, suggestions or anything else. Thanks!!

Sean

Christmas lights and decorations. Lots of them. Unfortunately, it'll be too late when we get there, but there's even horse carriage rides, ice rink (in times passed anyway), etc.

We need some place to go, so why not? I've never been so it should be cool.

Why not? Cause. Well, it does sound like a "Girlie Man" type thing. But I'm along for the laughs. THERE BETTER BE LAUGHS.:rant:


I like to laugh--even if it's only on the inside.:rolling:

Few things in life are more manly than ice skating so I don't know what your problem is. And who doesn't like pretty lights? :smack:

It was good to see everyone,it was a good crew of people hanging out, hopefully I'll see everyone next time....except Jerry..:laugh:

I thought you were full of meth . . . jk. I'm about to find out of your brother managed to push record on the camera or not.:smack:

I'm thinking about a format change next month. I'm thinking we should do the cruise before the meet and that way the end location can be where we're having dinner. I think it will be easier to keep people together that way and also if people just want to hang around the show part for a while we won't have to leave. What does everyone think?

The Mission Inn in Riverside, yes there's an ice rink. There's also horse carriage rides you can take around the Inn, and other fun stuff.
