All this Shedd BBQ activity made me jealous, so I went for a fun run drive Sunday, after putting on my Shed BBQ hat

Came across this red car on the Rockstorephotos site, who is it? Can't quite tell--

That red car looks like it has Comp suspension and the chrome looks GREAT.

Weather is nice here now so I drove it to workout. Then my wife and I went for a drive around the area. Car still wants to run at 190-200 degrees. Warms up when I stop at lights. Mechanical gauge so I have to figure it is close.

Beach Street, Inter Coastal Waterway.

A1A, Ormond Beach.

I DROVE ~80 miles to Berkeley to visit some friends today

On Sunday I drove to Starbuck's...... in Malibu:
I was hoping someone would ask to drive my car and then buy me a Venti Frappuchino, but no luck. Settled for a tall iced coffee:

Need to work on that cup holder. It doesn't look stable for driving...

Hmm.. I think I was being followed..

I like your license plate frame Mike.

Followed? Who could it be? Dang watermark

Finally un-burried the car, covered with shipping blankets my neighbor gave to me, to make a quick run to the stop 'n rob to grab a treat for a hard day of work. I did not run very well, kind of a miss / weak cylinder. Pulling into the garage it became obvious, a very noisy cam follower. One of the adjusters got loose and backed off. Major paranoia relieved . Keep your jam nuts tight out there guys!

So the weekend started Thursday.. I met Kevin D at the drift track, he wanted to see my car in action.. So of course he drives up right as this happens..lol


I do not do tandem drifts, so taking a 240sx in the passenger door is not in my plans..

Friday Night, went to meet friends at Glendora, but the road was closed for the holiday weekend, so we went up to Crystal Lake instead.. The city lights become a blur from 20 miles out and 5000 feet up


Saturday started at the S-chassis meet, and since I convinced them that the original Silvia was built on our chassis I was in..lol

Left from there for some food at Sonic.. Always a fun picture when you can get at least 3 generations of Fairladies..


But it was WAY too hot, so I drove down to Huntington Beach, then across the VT bridge in Long Beach.

Ended up at the monthly Z and other Nissan meet in Cerritos.. This picture is early, as usual ended up about 50 cars including right drive Skylines, Zs, and others..


Today went to a local meet at the park, stayed for a while and ate the amazing BBQ, but again it was way too hot.

Drove down to the beach, and drove south from Newport Beach toward Dana Point..


Decided to miss the holiday traffic by running over Ortega Highway..


Then I decided it was still too hot down in the valley so I was going to get lost for a while.. I went exploring on a road called South Main Divide Road…

Over Elsinore



The motorcyclists were purposely getting lost too.. His and Hers new BMW dual sports.. Nice bikes and nice people..

Anyway, sun getting lower, but the views were still amazing..


Road getting smaller..


Fording the creek..


Why can't I ever remember to shut the door when I take photos?


Sunset off the hood..


Overlook waiting for the bikes..


Last light..


Starbucks parking.. Orange light on an orange car..


Fun weekend so far..

Did a little 200 mile run today. A couple of mountain loops. The Alpine Loop and Nebo Loop. A bunch of light sprinkles.

A pic to celebrate the end of Summer.



Over looking Utah Lake.



Can't pass up a chance to pick up some spare ammo on the side of the road.



And now up on stands to clean up the underside after the rain.

Did a fun run with the So Cal MG etc group. Lot of fun, route was Latigo Cyn and Tuna Cyn with a run past th Rock Store and the Snake first.My brakes were smoking on Tuna Cyn!
