Default Fun Run 6 Feb 2011 to SoSoCal or the Desert

Disclaimer: This is open to anyone who wants to go!

Mad because your football team's out of the playoffs?

Hate football and/or the Superbowl?

Then join me and the wife for a run to the Julian, Mt. Laguna area, or the 29 Palms, Joshua Tree NP area, depending on the weather. So while everyone else is watching the game, we'll be cruising traffic free roads, which means more driving fun. I hope.

Meeting time and place TBD.

Chowtime/place TBD.

I will follow up with more information after further planning. Any suggestions are welcome.

Not a football fan, so that's a good idea. We really like the runs you put together, we are in!

If the weather is good, how about the Richard / Marc's 29 Palms run that we missed last year? We are open to drive anywhere.

I could not give a s++t about football or basketball. so a run sounds good, but there is a run already going, open to all cars so you see alot of cool stuff, they meet at the junction of bear valley rd, and hwy 18 and do a cruise out to peggy sue's in barstow for breakfast. they are usually done by 11 am or so so that those who like that stuff can make any games, but me, could'nt care less about the game, although some of the commercials are pretty good.

That was a good one! We ate at Peggy Sue`s that time too,and stopped by the Route 66 Museum! Got in a lot of fun driving ! I like to remember that one as "MARC`S RABBIT RUN" By the time I got home I had 300 plus miles.

That's the one I was thinking about ... Marc's Rabbit Run!!! I heard it was a lot of fun with some spirited driving.

It appears I might have an oil pump issue, so hopefully the Vette will be up & running by Feb. 6th.

It's a low oil pressure warning & no oil pressure on the gauge. It's probably the oil pump or oil pump relief valve stuck open.

Maybe just the sensor?

Yes, that might be another reason. Who knows maybe a forged stroker engine could be in the future.
