Then as we started the run his car started to get hot so we just cruised so he could keep the rpms under 3000. Then we missed the left onto Glendora Ridge Rd and ended up at the Mt. Baldy ski lift. On the way back down a couple cars got between Guy and I and I lost him as we made the turn onto Glendora Ridge Rd. Then to top it off my youngest daughter got car sick 3 times that we had to pull over so I only did 35mph the entire way back down the mountain. At least I got a couple of good pictures.

Sorry dude. I feel terrible but I do really appreciate the help. I didnt get lost though i decided to cut it short and just hop back on the freeway. I went back and got my truck and pulled into the parking lot seconds before the first group did. We waited till you came down and saw you drive by but you didnt stop so we headed out. Thanks again, this has just motivated me further to finish the new engine. Next time out EVERYTHING will be new and shouldnt have any more issues. And you can tell Eric his hose will be in on monday


Anyhow my side of the story is just as bad. After we fixed the hose the car just kept climbing in temperature, i cruised down the hill to clairmont and kept the temps around 170, until i got back on the freeway and it jumped to 220-230 again. During the cruise back after missing the turn the cars IAC took a shit, so any time i let off the gas it would die and i would have to downshift to keep it running. Then i blew out my header gasket and the car was popping and what not the rest of the drive. Just alot of little things that happened all at once further pushing for the 347 i have in the shop.

Ben did you get my text?

I am still wondering about thae guy in the 180sx. His back caliper came off as we got to the half way point and we tried to help but then everyone started getting in there cars so we did to because we did not want to get lost. Hopefully everything turned out ok.

Wish I could have been there longer.
My dad came down from Yosemite to hang out with me and I wanted him to tag along. We had started to change my brake rotors and pads before the run at about 10AM. Long story short and many trips to autozone we finished at about 4PM and made it there while you all stopped at the top and drove down with you all.

I had fun. I was hanging towards the back most of the time (my friend's DeLorean is a little underpowered), but that left me lots of room to play around a little.

I wonder where we should go next month?

We're doing Palomar Mountain in January. If I harass my partners enough, there might even be a post and banner about it within 48 hours of the event.

It's cool. Glad you got the rounds.

We'll be getting into AR relatively soon.
