VaGntlmn · 07-26-2011, 12:17 PM

maybe I can make this one!!!!

ZCarMan · 07-26-2011, 04:18 PM

Might be able to make this one as well. I've never made this drive so it would be good to see the views and enjoy a nice ride through the park.

I'm glad you're both finally going to cruise

Hopefully I have my carbon fiber front lip on by the cruise, it'll give me that extra downforce for that 35-40 mph range

I'm going on another dry run this Sunday... I'll ask about the need for a permit, and find the good stops between legs. (

RandyD · 07-31-2011, 02:40 PM

google map

ok - i'm settled on this route... it was excellent today!

i stopped and asked the ranger at the entrance to the park, no special permits required, but they do like to be informed of large groups... if we tell them ahead, then we might be expecting more patrols..

there was a nice peach orchard that i thought we could stop at, but today it was closed... so maybe not.

this is a fun ride... looking forward to sharing with everyone...

RandyD · 08-01-2011, 11:36 AM

checked with the Park Management, there is no permit required unless we exceed 20 cars.

birdmanx1 · 08-01-2011, 12:11 PM

Great stuff Randy, it looks like we have somewhere around 10 cars so far 12 including the photographers. Would you maybe list the members who will attend the cruise on your first post for this thread? This is starting to look like the last cruise led by Shado

RandyD · 08-01-2011, 01:58 PM

OK - posted the list on page 1.

I also have a buddy with a BMW Z4 roadster... says he's interested.. i told him he has to go in the back, and pretend he wants to upgrade to a 370

I may be up for this one.
