Default January Motorgen Meet and Cruise - JANUARY 10th!!!

Monthly Motorgen Meet. A variety of cars come out including:

-Fbodies
-Vettes
-Evos
-WRXs
-DSMs
-TurboBuicks
-Syclones/Typhoons
-Supras
-350z
-G35/37
-Mustangs/Cobras
-Rx7/8
-and others.

The meeting is at Nick's Burger in Fullerton. The address is:

Nick's Burger
1712 W. Orangethorpe Ave
Fullerton, CA 92833


Generally we have been having this meet at 7:30 and then have been doing cruises afterward, but we're going to switch it up this month. We are planning to meet at the parking lot across the street from Nick's at 4:00 p.m. and then go on a cruise for a couple hours. We are then planning on ending up back at Nick's between 6 and 6:30 where we will have the meet and eat dinner.

The official meet will start at 6:30 this month. The food at Nick's is pretty good and we can just hang out there until everyone feels like leaving. We are going to go test drive some cruise routes this Sunday, and I'll post up the exact directions for the cruise part this Monday. If anyone has any suggestions please post them up in this thread.

Also, for anyone interested we are doing a dyno day before our next meet on February 21st. The details for that meet are here. If anyone wants to dyno, I am requiring that you sign up here in advance. You must be a registered user to sign up. Sorry to put everyone through the extra hassle, but it's the easiest way to keep track of things. Thanks for all your continued support with everything. I'll see you all out there

You should get a baseline anyway. I'm really curious and it will be fun to see the progression.

If nothing else, you and Kera should come hang out at the shop - it should be fun.

Did a prerun today and I think the route is going to pretty much look like this.

The Canyon between C and D is one of the best, if not the best driving road local to these parts. It is VERY technical, you'll be continually steering, double apex turns, decreasing radius turns, continuous elevation change, on and off camber turns, damn narrow with an okay surface. Absolutely PERFECT for a ralley style car or shorter wheelbase sports car.

Sounds good. Are you going to have your car on the dyno at the dyno day, because if you are you should probably follow the rules and sign up for it

Probably not since I haven't done anything. Then again, I've been down a couple MPH at my last outings, so that should be a clearly lower peak HP. I've got project car on the brain right now. Anyway, I'm 10x the stickler for following rules than you are . . . hippie.
