October 23rd Ortega Highway/Tommy's Burgers Run
 

EDIT: Vettezuki


Here's a little video of a fly by and walk around. Someday I'll get this right.


Here's some in car video from Leedom. Not a lot of action but a little flavor of what the run looks like at the beginning.


A vdi from Redono Jon.





Here's the album.

Here's a couple selected photos.

Have to say the Challenger is the best of the retro stylings.




Love that Subie blue.






YES!


This Nismo is a beautiful car. I'd like to drive one someday.

================
OP
It's time for another cruise everyone. Here's the plan:

Meet at the shopping center in San Juan Capistrano at 4:15p.m. Use the address below as a reference:

27324 Ortega Hwy
San Juan Capistrano, CA 92675

We will depart for Ortega Hwy at 4:45p.m. We're going all the way though and then stopping at the grocery store directly at the end of Ortega. The address for the store is:

15887 Grand Ave
Lake Elsinore, CA 92530

We should arrive at the store right around 5:15p.m. if anyone wants to meet us on the Lake Elsinore side. At 5:45p.m. we'll depart from the store and head back through Ortega again. The sun is going to set at 6:08, so it should be twilight and a really nice drive. Once we get back through Ortega we're going to hop on the 5 North and head to El Toro Road. There is a Tommy's Burgers right off the freeway that we can eat at. I've never been to one before, but I've heard great things. With any luck (assuming we run on time for once), we should hit the restaurant right about 6:30-45ish.

It should be a great time and Ortega is a great drive. I know there is a UFC fight that night, and it starts at 7. Anyone that wants to just bug out after the cruise to go watch the fight is of course welcome to do so. Lesnar is going to smash Cain for the record ;)

Here is the full route.

See you all the 23rd :drink:

In.

Night run? I guess im in, you have thus forced me to adjust my headlights

I'm In for the whole cruse.... and Lesnar is going to kill Cain for sure

Sad as i am to admit it, i feel cain is going to go down like Meir did

:drive: Frankie and I are in !

Man i live right off ortega but not sure what time i will be back in town? If anything i could meet at Tommy burgers then go to the fight at Lampost in Mv La Paz. Lesnar is too much for Cain

Definitely. Cain is just too small IMHO to hang with Brock.

Brock and I say Fuds in place of Tommy's. Tommy's is D grade at best.

We are talking about a high speed run, through the mountains, with rock walls on one side, sheer drop off on the other, and your worried about a "D" grade burger ??:jester::jester::jester:

We do Fudds all the time, and they aren't that great either. 8 bucks for a burger you make yourself:bang: It is a nicer place with better parking though.

Well since you guys mentioned it, Fudds please.

But we can do burn outs at the Tommys parking lot.

Burn-outs; what’s a burn-out? I don’t know what you’re talking about, it wasn’t me, I wasn’t even here...

how about hooters? the fight will be on there

I take the 5th.

Where is Adam ?? What burger joint are we going to ??

So what happens if it rains?

I was thinking the same thing, but the forecast says it’ll be okay for us. I’m wondering about the condition of the road; rocks, dirt, and other debris.

Yeah im not down for a wet canyon run

Sticking to the original plan and checking out Tommy's. Adam has been busy but should be along :)

I missed your last cruise. I am going to try to make this one as is another fellow Challenger owner (providing you don't mind us tagging along). I may drop off after we reach the store on the other side to go have dinner with my daughter who lives out that way. Playing it by ear at the moment.

I think the road will be fine and it sounds like a fun cruise, i'm in..

All cars welcome all the time. It's what we're about. :thumbs_up:

This is really tempting for me to attend. I was also invited for a cruise in southern SD... I'm not sure right now which to go on. I'm leaning for this one because I live closer and will be back in time to watch Lesnar beat Cain. This will also be my first cruise from this forum...

Clearly Motorgen is the answer, though I may be biased. See you tomorrow. ;)

Yea come with us the Ortega run is very cool, and this is my first cruise with this group. I too have to be at my Dads pad to see the fight. Hope to see ya there

I had a great time today. Great cruise. I look forward to your next one.

My dad and I had a great time with you all this evening as well. It was great meeting and chatting with those that we did, to the others, it was great cruising with you and hope to meet an chat next time ;)

Here's a few pics I got: http://www.m-b-photos.com/Cars/Moder...60838249_USCKu

Feel free to take the ones you want!

BTW, The 73 Camaro was freakin awesome, Love your car man! Oh and nice spark show there on the way back :P

Hey guys had a killer time with y'all tonight. It was a fun cruise with a huge variety of cars, which is always cool. I was in the 04 Scooby wagon, 3rd from the front with the wife riding shotgun. Hope to everyone out again soon.

It was nice to see some new cars and faces out there. Wish I could have made it to Tommy's at the end but my normally pretty awesome V8 decided to be highly not awesome V7 . . maybe a V6.5. I'll have some pics and videos within a day or so.

See OP for some pics. Working on Video.

Thanks ! I think my front cross member is a little thinner today !
Great pics you took too.:drink:

Nice pics Paul! When you get a chance, upload them to our FB album too. :drink:

Glad you liked the pics Paul;) I would say your Mufflers are a little shaved down now as well :bigthumbsup::p

Can't wait to see those videos!

Cool pic's, and nice shot of my Pony's ars

Oh I forgot to mention, If you guys want to edit the link of my album into the OP, go for it! Might be easier for everybody to see since this thread is still getting quite a few posts ;)

Here's the link again just in case you don't wanna go hunting for it haha

Awesome pictures. My wife actually has a 40D (I thought it was a 50D last night), so you have the same camera :thumbs_up:

Getting all excited for the videos, hope to see them soon
