Given how twisty Latigo Cyn is, I'd like to see a good bike rider go against a 911 or equal car, particularly in the downhill twisties. I bet it'd be "a race."

Once I saw a world class rider race a Porsche Turbo to forty miles an hour. Guess who won.

Don't worry. I have plenty of Jack Stands and allen wrenches for the PPI. If I can't be there I will FedEx them to the "Grand Marshall".

Yeah, Tony's my dad ... I guess you two are already making things happen. If it's a clean title I want the car, psychotic drunk or not. I say we grab the car in the middle of the night if he doesn't want to play fair. :D

Yes, it's at 13222 RAYMER ST., just west of Coldwater Cyn. between Fulton and Ethel ... parallel to the railroad tracks.

The phone number is (818)982-7610 and my dad is there Monday through Friday from 9am-5pm, rain or shine.

Yeah, it's a 3.0 Turbo that came out of my mom's car ... it runs pretty hard but right now it's just sitting on a dolley. It may find its way back into the car in the next few months but, for right now, it's just sittin' there. I've no idea what he wants for it - or if it's even for sale - but if the price is right my dad's not one to hold onto things for "sentimental reasons." Make him a reasonable offer and more than likely you'll have a 3.0 Turbo.

I think, if you want, he'll plug the motor in the car and sell you the whole lot for $20K .... I think.

Old School !! That exactly what I told him. Posession is 9/10ths of the law, and the other 10th is the 357 magnum tucked into my belt!! I miss the good ole days way of doing things.

Looks like I'm out for the 13th. :mad:

KevinP73 12-06-2003 04:09 PM

Sorry to hear it Scott. How about the 1st? Will you be in town?

dd74 12-06-2003 06:16 PM

Let's include some Rennlisters...
 
Looks like some Rennlisters are planning their own fun run in the same area, but on Dec. 20th...

I left a msg. on their thread about our run this Sat.

Here's the thread...

Kevin:

I'm planning on trying to make the TRE run on the 1st. Lots of variables, however, could change those plans. :rolleyes:

Jared at Pelican Parts 12-08-2003 07:13 AM

I'll be there with the new 914.

If the place where eating is still up in the air? I did eat at Malibu sea food the other day and it was good if you want fish and chips or a hamburger or?
It's that blue place on PCH between the 76 station and Chers palm tree orchard.
It has a big covered patio that you can see the Pacific from and pretty good parking if their not to busy.
It dosn't matter to me just a suggestion. Marmelades was good too. :)

Most recent forecast
 
It's looking like we will have good weather for this weekend. It may be a bit chilly for California (64 degree's) but otherwisw sunny.

12own911 12-10-2003 08:53 AM

The next date for me and I have to go to Hawaii to walk to "End Stroke"...

Thanks guys! :D

techweenie 12-10-2003 09:10 AM

I may be coming along...

Us Malibu locals like to eat at Coogies, which is in the same shopping center as Sav-On and Ralphs. lots of good parking there. Or John's Garden, across from the Starbucks on Cross Creek, which has large picnic tables outside.

dd74 12-10-2003 09:16 AM

Yeah - Coogies is good. Except it's always packed. But then at the end of our last run, Marmalade was pretty full when we arrived.

I'd go for Coogies. For a change of pace...

Any opportunity for a ride-along with someone for this thing? I don't have my 911 yet, and I'd like to get a feel for how various years/engine sizes perform and pick up some driving tricks. I've (and I hate to admit this to such a knowledable crowd) never driven a 911 yet, but hopefully mine will be done soon!

If you have space for a nice and fairly lightweight passenger, let me know!

will there be a "slower" option for this run? I'm thinking I might be able to make it with my 7 year old in tow, and doing the twisties at max speed will make him happy for about 20 minutes, followed by possible projectile vomiting.

Jared at Pelican Parts 12-10-2003 09:20 AM

I still have to get the Fuchs with 195's on my car by Saturday, Dont think the car will do so well on the stock wheels with 165's
