Did a little Mountain Cruise of my own...

As some of you know I was planning on going to the drags yesterday but for some reason my car wouldn't start. Blah-blah-blah... so I finally got her running. I was pretty bummed out because I was really looking forward to the drags.

So later I go to my mom's for a BBQ and me and my bro, who has an FC RX7 Turbo-II, were talking about heading out to the mountains for some "spirited" driving. We always used to drive out there even back when I had my 240SX... and since I'm moving to Arizona I probably won't get a chance to go for quite awhile. I figured why not? Let's hit the Cali Hills one more time. These are some pix I took while up there today in the morning:

Gassing up (that's my bro's T-II on the right):

Barely keeping up with the fire-spitter:

Jorge,

Gonna hate to see you move away.

Nice photos !! :tumble:

You should have put them in the photo gallery.

I can move them if you want.

Looks like fun. We need to organize another cruise. I'll put some heat on Chuck this thursday.

It's good to know I'll be missed! I'll be sure to visit and come to some meets when I can...

Thanks. Yeah. I don't think I remember how to use the gallery function... but you can move them there if you like. :wavey:

It was great fun! Made up a little for me missing the drags.

Yes. Another one before the weather gets nasty would be good for the club! Too bad I won't be able to make it out... I won't make this month's meet either but tell everyone I said HELLO!

It's always fun to go cruise the mountains! I miss those days! One day i'll be good to go again! That reminds me, here's a picture I took on one mountain. The tire marks you see are mine. I spun out coming out of an S-curve that downsloped, doing between 70 and 75 MPH. I hit the curb and bounced off. Luckily, the only damage to the car was a scratch on the front lip. That cross wasn't there when it happened, I guess he wasn't so lucky. RIP.
