So do we know what restaurant we are going to go to this time?

(i'm guessing La Tolteca just to make things simple)

Probably, but I'll let the poll run a little longer to see if there's a sudden shift the other way.

I hope the weather is as nice as the Mulholland Run. That was great turbo weather. BTW is the route for GMR going to be posted in the OP or do we assume it's going to be the same as last time. (which I didn't go on) Just wondering????

blackax 03-31-2011 04:30 PM

It should be the same as our last GMR run. But i'm sure ben will add that info to the OP when he gets a chance.

Vettezuki 03-31-2011 05:03 PM

It'll be the same. I'll update with linked route in the next day or so.

09sscalicobalt 03-31-2011 07:59 PM

hmm should be able to make this since i missed the mulholland one i slept in lol got new tires now and rear sway so should be alot more fun!

Ryridesmotox 04-01-2011 12:23 AM

I will be there also since I didn't get the car ready for Mojave in time.

sinaSRT-4 04-03-2011 03:36 PM

I'll be there, again! Looking forward to the run filled with great cars and great car enthusiasts.

Vettezuki 04-04-2011 07:43 PM

See OP for route. We settle on La Tolteca as it was running well ahead in the poll.

2011GT302 04-06-2011 12:04 AM

Pretty sure I'm going to skip the Knotts show so I'll be there. Dont think I'll make dinner though. :sadbanana: I'm not a big fan of the spot lol.

dmark101 04-06-2011 11:23 AM

Welcome aboard. We do this once a month. :thumbs_up:

Earthen 04-07-2011 12:30 PM

Sweet, I have the plans to be there, so if you see a red evo IX MR with a MI plate, that is me.

A fair number bring their girlfriends. I strongly recommend one or the other, not both.

I was going to say, I've met your girlfriend but I've yet to meet your wife. :smack:

Ha, ha.... "Winning!!"

If we make it back from Temecula my wife will tag along. I'm going to have to bring a softer ride though, she won't get in the 7 anymore. Hope she doesn't toss her cookies with all the twisties.

Meclizine. It's OTC at Walgreens, cheap, and effective anti-motion sickness. Ginger is an effective home remedy. But yeah, passengers have done a little involuntary purging on that route.

My girlfriend gets car sick on long car rides, but she loves GMR(our first motorgen run) and she is looking forward to Sunday.

kdracer73 04-08-2011 06:52 AM

Frankie got a little :barf: but held it down, the first time we ran it. She was working the camera
and her phone, not watching the road. Last 2 times we had no problem.

JMak 04-08-2011 07:30 AM

The wife almost :barf: on the last run and everyone rubbed in how scary this this road is so she is sitting this one out. So if anyone got an extra super model girlfriend sitting around she is more than welcome to ride shotgun with me. :bigthumbsup:

Leedom 04-08-2011 08:35 PM

I would love to bring Shannon but I learned very early on in our relationship that I would have no fun with her ridding shotgun. I would rather her not come because 5 MPH under the the speed limit on Ortega has her white knuckled. GMR would have her screaming and blowing out my eardrums.

Shaolin Crane 04-09-2011 01:54 AM

Yeah but you'd be in the back to keep sean company :)

JMak 04-09-2011 08:58 AM

With the rain we got the other night will there be any snow up on this run?

kdracer73 04-09-2011 08:59 AM

I gotta drive the DD again. My new trans don't feel right:huh::huh:

It just adds to the excitement. I might role with the Jeep this time as my starter as taken on a random approach to starting. :huh:

X3

I'll still show, regardless. Running catted exhaust this time around though since I just smogged the car. :surrender:

VQR37 NISMO 04-09-2011 09:23 PM

We'll be there tomorrow.....VQR37 NISMO and 10yearrx7

The Ridge section was seriously the best I've been on. I'm gonna have to make a few more trips out there in the middle of the week when there is less traffic.

I had a blast, thanks for the open invite for the cruises. My boss also came with his white STi and he also had a good time.

Word. Be sure to check the pics and vids. Might this be your boss's ride? It's hi-res. Click on it a second time in your browser for full size.

Yeah thats him.

Thanks again. All the photos, the group pre-cruise, the food afterwards go above and beyond what I would expect from a canyon run. I can't wait for the next event. Maybe I'll pick up a Go-Pro by then too.

Dmont0446 04-11-2011 04:24 PM

This was my first time going up GMR..... loved the variety of cars that went up.....Thanks for the great event =)
