chazdawg35 · 08-30-2009, 03:55 PM

Crazy meet! It was HOT and SMOKEY, even going to PCH was just a little relief from the heat. Marrk had Mulholland reading 91 at 10;30. I'll put up some pics.

chazdawg35 · 08-30-2009, 04:03 PM

philiam · 08-30-2009, 04:35 PM

Where was that last shot chaz? Looks like it's out on the street.

chazdawg35 · 08-30-2009, 05:26 PM

Yea Phil those are up at the lookout on Mulholland, HOT was the word! Your smarter than I look by staying home. I got some pics of cars I'll post them on the Photo Thread.

chazdawg35 · 09-05-2009, 09:04 PM

Anyone going out this weekend?

chazdawg35 · 09-18-2009, 08:43 PM

Hey Dudes anyone going to Mulholland this weekend? I was thinking Sun. morning 9ish, but have to be home to see the Charger game at 1!

CA Blue · 09-18-2009, 10:55 PM

Has anyone tried the Angeles Crest Highway?

philiam · 09-18-2009, 11:25 PM

Gona be double digit temps this weekend.

satisaii · 09-19-2009, 11:32 AM

Angeles Crest will be closed for ~ 2 months.

JDMHonda · 09-19-2009, 11:56 AM

I was wondering about that, I was going to drive up there today to check it out but I guess I'll go for a run on Mulholland. Tommorrow I don't think I'll be driving with Football season I realized Sundays are getting crammed.

JDMHonda · 10-04-2009, 10:06 PM

Hey chaz, Remember when the first time we drove and there was this road at the end of Stunt road where the road on the left was closed. I think it was Tuna canyon or something like that. it was a dirt road at the time and was closed but the supercharged S2k that we met up with there still went.

Wait...... i actually think this was after you left LOL.

Anyways if you have any clue about what road im talking about, continue reading.I went yesterday night with a friend and came across this road.

IT IS THE MOST GODLIKE ROAD EVER CREATED BY HUMANS. wow. i was so impressed after.

just wanted to let you know.

CA Blue · 10-04-2009, 10:20 PM

I went up there this weekend, and seeing the devastation up close was just too depressing.

LOUDERS2K · 10-04-2009, 11:38 PM

Went last week only took a pic and a video.

chazdawg35 · 10-05-2009, 09:51 AM

Hey Bear I think I know where your talking about.

JDMHonda · 10-05-2009, 01:31 PM

Yeah the road was insane.

chazdawg35 · 10-08-2009, 08:21 PM

Anyone want to drive this weekend?

JDMHonda · 10-08-2009, 11:54 PM

Im going out on saturday at around 6 at night.

The road they just repaved and which was all dirt and getting regraded for the last few months is Saddle Peak Road. It eventually meets up and ends at Tuna Canyon which you can either take to Topanga Canyon (turn left) or take all the way out to PCH (turn right). So many exciting little roads in that area. Gotta be careful on Saddle Peak though. I came around a corner there on full tilt boogy one day and found myself squarely behind a smallish John Deere hauling a trailer of hay. Had to get on the binders pretty quick. Thankfully, it was an uphill so I had gravity on my side.

The hot weather seems to have broken a bit here so tomorrow sounds like a good day for a run up there.

I've been putting in gobs of billable hours in the last 4 weeks and I'm way overdue for a break. I'm taking the S out tomorrow and going *somewhere*. Haven't got a particular plan but it will likely include Mulholland. Coming up from the south so that means PCH to maybe Tuna or Las Flores up.

Chaz, what routes do you like best (realizing of course you are probably heading south instead of north)?

JDMHonda · 10-10-2009, 01:50 PM

RMurphy thats exactly the road im talking about. Yeah and it is very scary. Im going out there tonight at around 5ish and im gonna be running thick tires in the rear this time. 275 RT615's

chazdawg35 · 10-10-2009, 04:42 PM

Sorry Dudes tommorrow I'l be at Willow Springs for the S2K challenge race, it was a last minute thing but next weekend Sat. would be cool with me. RMurphy I love Decker Cyn. alot of switch backs.

chazdawg35 · 10-17-2009, 04:32 PM

Hey Dudes and Dudettes I just got back from a drive and be careful on Decker cyn. loose rocks about 2 miles in from PCH. Also Mulholland between PCH and Decker cyn. some wash out on the road too.

philiam · 10-17-2009, 05:53 PM

Thanks for the heads up chaz.

philiam · 11-15-2009, 10:13 PM

The El Camino shopping center Sunday car meet is no more. The management company hired some goons because of parking problems. The stores are unhappy, since they lost a lot of Sunday business. The meet may go the Gelsons' parking lot in Northridge.

JDMHonda · 11-18-2009, 11:00 PM
