blackax 04-23-2014 12:26 PM

I'm so down for the 10 or the 11th

C5Natie 04-23-2014 09:57 PM

I want to do a track day at Fontana on the 3rd so my vote would have to be for the 4th. I'll be on vacation too though so its not 100%. On the 10th or 11th Im in for sure.

firstshadow 04-23-2014 10:59 PM

In for Sunday, whatever the date...

Vettezuki 04-24-2014 01:43 AM

The thread and poll have been updated per Jon's request. If you voted and need to change your vote, let me know.

Darkstar 04-28-2014 08:14 AM

11th would be better, but either would be good.

94cobra69ss396 04-29-2014 06:50 AM

I might be able to make it for either the 10th or 11th so either is fine with me.

mustangray 04-30-2014 08:41 AM

The 11th sounds good to me

kdracer73 04-30-2014 10:23 PM

I vote for the 11th. I was planning to replace my intake manifold gasket on the 10th and tow my Vette up to Pasadena. Happy coincidence.

Good group of folks. Yeah, I’ll go.

firstshadow 05-03-2014 12:27 PM

All good for the 11th? :)

Redondo Jon 05-03-2014 06:55 PM

I updated the initial post. Yup, all set for May 11.

94cobra69ss396 05-04-2014 09:09 AM

I didn't realize that the 11th was Mother's Day. I'm out.

mustangray 05-06-2014 12:02 PM

I forgot it was moms day too I have to go bbq some Korean ribs for my mom and grandmother so I guess I'm out too

firstshadow 05-07-2014 12:55 PM

I'll probably do crest and double back at wrightwood, have to make it back for lunch

C5Natie 05-09-2014 06:28 PM

Took a drive up to Newcomb Ranch today. Forgot how nice it was and how fast some parts of ACH can be. Never thought I'd see 120mph up there. Oops. Lol

Are you going to double-back along A.C.H. or go to the 138 then to the 15?

firstshadow 05-11-2014 07:55 AM

Along ach. Heading out in a few

Redondo Jon 05-11-2014 02:03 PM

It was good seeing everyone again; too bad the road was in such bad shape.:poo:Oh well.

Vettezuki 05-11-2014 03:12 PM

Gotta get me back on the road!

A few shots from my fiancee.











I almost wonder if it would have been faster to take ACH back home. I went to stop at the mcdonalds when we got to the 15 and it was closed! And then the 15/60 interchange was also closed, with heavy traffic on the 91 west until it split with the 55. Oh well, we made it back after the lunch (whoops, lol) but we did manage to grab some flowers for mom.

I was talking to some other guys who were up on ACH saturday, and they said it was a little breezy. All the dirt and rocks on the road must have brewed up over night with those strong winds. Better luck next time? :sm_laughing:

Darkstar 05-12-2014 10:50 AM

Nice seeing you guys. Those rocks sure did a number on my lt's. Here's a video of the worst one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Bm2...e_gdata_player

Redondo Jon 05-12-2014 12:34 PM

“I almost wonder if it would have been faster to take ACH back home...”
I was thinking the same thing because I ended up in that same 91 / 55 traffic. Thankfully, it opened up passed that. I thought you did a good job leading the run though.

I was up there Friday and I could feel the loose dirt on the road. At first glance the road looked clean but I could feel the tires kicking up all the little pebbles. I still had decent grip so it probably got worse that night.

Darkstar 05-13-2014 06:50 AM

Here's video of the run if anyone wants to see it.

Oh man; look at all the crap hitting your windshield! It really was like driving through a rock quarry.
