OC guys if you havent seen the thread on the other forum, we are meeting at 10am sharp at Lucilles off the 57 North, exit Imperial straight into the shopping center and its on the right.

I figured it will take about 15 minutes for everyone to show and then we can get moving. I am not sure how much traffic we will encounter and I think with the big local game, Pasadena will be extra crowded along with holiday shoppers.

E55 (for sale if the right offer comes along)...too many others to list
I am going out of town this weekend and will miss this meet. I was looking forward to giving the 210 some love. All of you better make it to the meet in March.

James,
It's your autograph that is needed.

Have a wonderful weekend guys.

Um, the game is at the LA Coliseum and the winner goes to the Rose Bowl. We shouldn't have much traffic except close to game time in all of the bars with TV's.
