I'm up for it. So Cal covers a lot of space. I'm in the San Fernando Valley...and the current gathering rules make it a little awkward but its a great time of year for something outdoors. Cars and Coffee in Malibu is one thought? 2nd and 4th Sundays...they have a FB page. And I'm sure there are others around SoCal. Not sure I'm ready to get back into bars.

I'm now convinced that you are the real deal. Only a few hours as a member and already pulling up necro threads :lol:

Welcome Johnny.

That's redundant. But yeah. Actually, I know a great place. Have met a few of you clowns there... Barefoot Bar, Paradise Point. It's an open-air bar/restaurant, right on the water.

I've even hung out with Darryl from Storage Wars there a couple times.

I'm in town from July 28th through August 1st, then again from August 5th through August 9th. Would be great to meet up with you guys.

I suggested to Schnelly a couple of weeks ago that an ideal outing for me would be to meet up with you guys early on a Saturday morning, either July 31st or August 7th, and go for either a drive or a cars and coffee or maybe a San Diego Region PCA function that morning.

If I'm back at the hotel by 11:00 am, my wife won't complain too much that I'm abandoning my family to hang out with a bunch of strangers from the internet.

I'm down with meeting up for a drink, too. The Barefoot Bar on Paradise Point was pretty cool last time when I met up with Cuda. The only issue I'll have is that I'll have the family in tow and my wife will be giving me the evil eye the entire time (just like last time). But, she thought the place was pretty cool, too. So as long as they don't have to sit with us and listen to car & guy talk, they'll be sorta fine with it.

I will DEFINITELY be down to meet up. Frunky, I'm sorry I didn't reply to your PM yet - I was too busy picking the monthly prize winner. :D

Maybe we can get a few cars together and do an early-morning Julian run for coffee/breakfast. Regulars Wanted opens at 7:30...

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

I think Cuda has enough to loan out even if the entire Outpost membership showed up.


BTW you can definitely count on me to consider the idea of contemplating the thought of debating the notion of analyzing the concept of not attending.
