Talking SOCG Ortega Saturday morning? Anyone?

Hey guys. Does anyone want to do a nice easy Ortega run and grab some breakfast down by the lake on Saturday morning? I know most of you are doing the Hangover run on New Year's day, but I can't make that run due to work so this is my only opportunity to drive. I haven't decided which car I want to drive yet.

So, what do you think?

Thanks for the Private messages guys. It looks like I picked a bad day for everyone. Unfortunately Sunday I'll be getting up at 4 AM for a two day trip that has me working on New Years Eve and Day.

I can make the Saturday Ford PAG show though, so I'll see some of you there.

How about this - Milt suggested we meet at the show and the maybe take a drive afterward. What do you think about that? At least we can meet up at the show, drink coffee and chit chat while looking at beautiful cars and if we still feel like driving later, then the option is open.

Sounds good! What time you thinking of meeting at PAG?

My car looks a little different after her Christmas present...

Yea, I read one of your posts. You mentioned that you've got 225's in front and 245's in back. Cool. How'd you manage to fit those tires under your LOOOOOOW car, Patrick?

Scott,
Saturday sounds like a good possibility. Meeting at the Ford facility would be a good start..........

Saturday...

For anyone who hasn't been to the Ford PAG hosted "Cars & Coffee" gathering, it's great way to see some awesome cars of all types and socialize with one's friends.

Here's the address:

Ford PAG Mazda Campus
7905 Gateway Blvd.
Irvine, Ca. 92618

It runs from 7 to 9 AM but most cars are there well before then, so if I were you, I'd show up a bit early. Personally, I'm planning to get there around 6:45.

See you there.

Sorry, work calls. I can't make it. And I was the one that diverted this to Ford. Sorry again.

As a suggestion, I would encourage the guys that want to take off and drive to meet in the general public parking section around the corner from the display parking. Why? I don't know, just sounds like less trouble.

I will get down to this thing eventually. I'm making it a NY resolution.

BTW, I'm forgoing the TRE NYD run to do the benchracing.com run in OC. So, maybe 2 runs in 2 days was too much anyway. Anyone else gonna be on the "Kennel" run?

TOO RUF,

Call me on my cell tomorrow. I'll PM you with the number right now.

On a side note, I'm bringing the '84 tomorrow. We (me and the car) had a nice 40 mile drive up and down the Coast Highway today with the top down - and it was good. Along the way I met up with and followed a gorgeous 996 C4S and a 996 C2 Cab. We were joined for a few miles by a young dude driving a nice Lambo.

Milt, sorry that you can't make it tomorrow. There will be other Saturdays, however.

Do you have another car? How about a neighbor and some jumper cables?
