The sun is out and the weather channel says it's done raining. It should be dry soon. I'll be there.

swistun · 12-19-2006, 01:24 PM

Jeph's Mom (sorry, forgot the name), Jeph and Peter, my sincere thanks once again for showing up. I did not know my car could be a snow-baby, and I'm not sure if that trip to Palomar Mtn counts, but the pictures are really cool - 3 Elises (mine without a top) surrounded by fog, fresh snow all around... I'll post some good ones here soon, but we have about 1000 of them to go through first, so excuse the delay please.

Overall great experience, my dad won't shut up about it!

My alarm went off at 7:30 but it was still raining in OB so I went back to sleep. Sorry I missed the drive. How about a drive this Saturday?

I have my car again... I would be up for a drive.

gameson · 12-20-2006, 08:03 AM

i wish i can. my rear diffuser is in the shop for powdercoating, so i dont want to risk ripping off the heatshield by rock chips.

maybe after new year? oh wait, i might be at speedventures...

femagaca · 12-20-2006, 08:40 AM

sorry i could not make it last sunday, it was raining when i got up, but this saturday sound good

jeph · 12-20-2006, 08:42 AM

dang, saturday I have to work.

Hayseed · 12-20-2006, 06:17 PM

Saturday makes sense for me. I'm in if its dry.

Jeph, can you explain the route that you did with the Porsche club. I'd be up for some new scenery. I think the new route would also warrant a change of meeting point.

Vantage · 12-21-2006, 10:22 AM

If I'm still in town, I'd be up for a drive on Sat.

wow, looks like a lot of people will be there, I am working on my schedule maybe I can be there for the most part of the morning. I have a play by play on the route I can post it.

jeph · 12-21-2006, 02:47 PM

Start at Steele Canyon High School Adress is 12440 Campo Rd San Diego

Mileage

0 Left on Campo/ 94 east
3.1 Left Lyons Valley
4.7 Right at stop to Lyons Valley
7.5 Right Lyons Valley
21.1 Right at stop at “T” Japatul Valley Rd.
29.2 Left on Hwy 79
40.9 Continue past Lame Cuyamaca Store (Landmark only)
41.5 Left on Engineer Rd (ooh yeah)
47.3 Right on Boulder Creek
50.3 Left on Pine Hills Rd.
50.7 Bear Left at fork to stay on Pine Hills
52.0 Right at “T” on Pine Hills
52.7 Right on Blue Jay
53.0 Bear Ltef on La Posada

This is Pine Hills lodge. A nice little restraunt that has a pretty good brunch on weekends

From here you can re-trace the steps home (probably the most fun way) or continue like they did.

jeph · 12-21-2006, 02:51 PM

So the formatting on that came out like ****. sorry. Really, the first part was a lot more fun than the second, with the exception of banner grade if we promise to leave on time at 9 I should be able to make at least the first half. Have to be at work at 12.

femagaca · 12-21-2006, 03:30 PM

Jeph, since i am comming from mexico and due to the route and long lines to cross the border i will cross the border in tecate wich leads to 94, where should i catch up with you and what time (aprox,)

CALtd · 12-21-2006, 04:42 PM

I tried to create a Yahoo Map of the first half of the route. I got lost between steps I-L (miles ~50-53), but it is close enough for you to get an idea. If you want I may try to map the 2nd half.

Randy Chase · 12-21-2006, 06:19 PM

I think I have driven a very similar version of this.

Hayseed · 12-21-2006, 07:52 PM

So is it Steele Canyon High @8:30 on Saturday?

MS

jeph · 12-21-2006, 10:46 PM

sounds good, I will bring the original instruction sheet with me.
