The Grid
 

.....and understeering hard into turn number one on the inside is Judy !! Oh oh, looks like she's getting rear ended by Dave B. (and appears pretty pleased to be doing so) On the outside is Huck Fynn (really). LOOK OUT, Adolfo's getting crossed up and the rest of the field is stacking up behind. It's getting pretty wild further back as we see Daryl on the inside and (I think) one of those Graham brothers being chased hard by C. Cuttler. J. Norris meanwhile is apparently happy to be blocking L. Colucci (can't tell who's next-Christi?) then the elder Graham bringing up the rear with Cortez and Marquardt along side. These inverted starts can get mighty hairy.

Anybody headed to Bob's tonight?

yeahhhaa! I'm going to meet Chris @ Starbucks on Ventura right now. We'll be @ Bob's @ ~ 5:00ish. Derek will show up later.

Yeah, what Radu said.

Wouldn't be before 8:00. Doubt you guys will still be there.

This song reminded me of this thread. Its "hey pretty driveby mix"

Give one of us a call to see if we're still there.

Derek, Radu, Chris? Where were you guys? Thought you all wanted to jump into Mulholland today? We had a good time. Pics to follow, I need something to eat!

INTERESTING. THAT CRASH SITE LOOKS VERY MUCH THE SAME AS THE
ONE FROM LAST YEAR. IS IT?

Ferrari Wreck
 

I Thought It Looked Like The Same Crash Site.

Un Masked
 

I Don't Think The Guy On The 'outside' Pole Would Want Anyone To Know Who He Is Or Where He Works Right Now. Lol

I DON'T THINK THAT THE GUY ON THE OUTSIDE POLE WOULD REALLY LIKE HIS NAME REVEALED NOR WHAT HE DOES FOR A LIVING NOW DAYS. THE GUY ON THE OUTSIDE BACK ROW IS WORKING ON SOME SORT OF FERRARI DISNEYLAND IN DUBAI.

NOTICED JIM HALL (NOT PICTURED AND THE NON-WING VERSION OF J.H.) THE OTHER DAY ON TV BEING INTERVIEWED A THE CHICAGO AUTO SHOW. NICE TO SEE THAT HE IS STILL PLAYING WITH CARS.

are we talking Jim Hall or Jim Hall? Chaperal Or Boy from U.N.C.L.E.

Alright, some the pics from today. I call dibs on the two heater flapper boxes!! They look like they would clean up nice!

Chris B. thought he saw a Tear Drop Trailer....

Mulholland Dr. day hike guide...
 

If anyone else decides to take the plunge and are not really familiar with the terrain, there are some things to know and carry.

Cell phone - make sure its charged. Plenty of coverage up there and it's possible to take a tumble and need to call for help.

Water - In the car and on you if at all possible. There are no Starbucks or 7-11s down there!

Sun block and a hat - The sun beats down on that area after noon.

Camera - You never know what you may see/find.

Hiking boots/long pants/long sleeves - The hill is crawling with Poison Oak.
This is what it looks like right now. Google it and learn!
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1200795514.jpg
If you have never had Poison Oak and come in contact, you may end up with a mild case and located in only on place. Once you get Poison Oak, it becomes worse with each subsequent encounter. You really don't want to end up looking like this:

Take a shower and wash really well, as soon as possible!

Remember to lock your car! (:rolleyes:)

Don't go in the spring/summer/fall - Plenty of Rattle snakes, fleas, ticks, black widows...

Please don't litter, there's enough trash already down there . :(

Most of all, have fun and be safe! SmileWavy

Mulholland Recon
 

Had a great time today with you guys hiking the brush below Mulholland.
We found Motorcycles, safes, a gun, lots of Porsche parts, cars, lots of bottles, old beer cans, tires, tvs, big oak trees, and lots more. I need to go back once more to complete the map of where everything is.

Here we are at the beginning of our trek.
