This past week was on the small side, probably due to many other events going on, but was still fun hanging out with good friends and nice cars. Lets get it back on track like the previous week.

This past Saturday was a great turnout, and I believe we had a little more than 50 of the cars that showed up at Cbad go on the cruise over to JR Performance. BTW a big thank you to JR for opening their doors and serving up some good tasting burgers and brats. I thought the threat of rain would lead many to stay home, but thankfully that did not happen. Lets keep the event growing, so please continue spreading the word. There will be more events like the cruise/open house in the future so stay tuned and become a fan on facebook:

Make sure to check the wall for pics and vids from other people. Ive posted a good deal of the ones I took but there are many more to come. You can view March's album here:

This Saturday should be a very big turnout, there are at least 20 confirmed L4Pers and their exotics coming down from OC (late in the morning, so dont leave early) and there will be a cruise over to Station Pizza afterwards to meet up with even more cars before heading out on a run up to Julian for those who want to make a day out of it. There is also a group of Mustangs and Panteras who may join us at Cbad Cars before driving down the same path but with the destination of JR Competition for a tech day.

Check out this weeks invite page for more info: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=215458721815171

This Saturday June 4th is going to be great day to come out to Cbad Cars. There is a ton of interest so far with several cars coming down from OC and LA. At 9am we will be cruising over to HRE where they will be hosting an open house, having many more cars on display, as well as vendors and some great give aways. So make sure you dont miss it.

Here is the FB Invite page with all of the details: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=211388248883912

The flyer with info for the entire day:

Among many cool cars HRE will have this Koenigsegg on display and they are going to try to bring it out to Cbad Cars in the morning for the cruise over, so make sure to bring your cameras, it will make for some killer rolling shots!

And just so everyone has a heads up, here is the map and directions of the route we will be taking from Cbad Cars to HRE so that no one gets lost:

around 9-9:15 (depending on when the OC crew rolls in) we will quickly gather around my car (pictured below) to quickly figure out who is going with, and then we will line up in 2 or 3 rows (depending on how many are cruising) towards the back of the parking lot so we can all easily file out together and head down Palomar. If we can get 1 or 2 volunteers to head up each line in case the lights separate us that would be awesome!
