Hwy 9 Fun Run!

hmmm... It appears that I shall be attempting to join you good folks next week.... I hope it is as fun as it seems!
Nice pics btw Nate...
 
That was fun guys! Too bad we didn't get to drive this time but having kick ass fogs was worth it. And now we are all pros on how to do it for anyone else who hangs out with us up at the summit.

I'll make sure to get my pics up soon. I am gonna need to install photoshop on this PC and get a gallery up.

I don't have any pictures for the how-to up yet. I think I can take better pictures and write down the full instructions for the method that we followed if we do someone elses at our next meet.


See all of them in my Photoshop Gallery Here:

Let's keep the meets up. This is fun, maybe we can start some sort of Silicon Valley/Santa Cruzish Chapter of a protege club or something. We should get together for a barbeque or something at some point.
 
I just came back from another run up 9. Man, it was beautiful out there... the road, the deer, 4 patches of rubber, the sound of heavy self-induced oversteer (yes, oversteer)....

I am definitely taking a liking to Page Mill Road.

As far as BBQ, that was my idea and yes, we should most definitely BBQ, I'm thinking the heat might be too much though. Even this late at night (3am), it was pretty warm up there... low 70s

Great pics guys! That was fun! (2thumbs)
No driving, tis true, but 4 fog light mods in one night! Thats gotta be a record.

eggy-Always a good time!(stoned)
jrodhotrod- Thanks for the help with the mod. I don't know what we would have done without you up there.(thumb)
KpaBap- Nice to meet you. Hope to see you up there again.:D

BBQ is definitely in order. Ain't nothing like kickin' back with a cold one, Q'n up some tri tip, and takin bout our rides.
(drinks) (rockon)
 
Yeah! 3am run! (drive)

I'm also down for a BBQ. You've got a point, though. It's HOT up there. Maybe after this heat-wave is over it'll be a little more managable up there. Or maybe we could find a park or ? in Saratoga.

How 'bout Next Thursday?

Aaand it's Friday night. If anyone cares, I will be up on hwy9/35 for indefinitely long. Most likely on hwy 35 at vista point. To get there from the summit:

If coming from Saratoga then turn right at the 4-way.

If coming from Santa Cruz/Big Basin turn left.

If coming from Los Gatos go straight.


Then, drive down for hella days, past Page Mill road. Eventually you will see signs saying Vista Point 1/4 Mile ahaid. Might be a good time to clock your 1/4 mile . Then stop at vista and holla at meh.

Peace.
 
Damn.
I came thisclose to going up there last night, but by the time I read your post, it was 11. I didn't wanna go up there and miss you.
Are you gonna go up tonight? :)
 
Dood, I was up there till at least 1:30ish driving up and down. Lots of drunken teenagers :rolleyes:, but also many drifters and crazy japanese people in miatas :D

I wasn't planning on going up there but I really have nothing better to do. If you wanna go up there tonight, I'm down for sure.
 
we should have a meet on a friday sometime soon and try to get everybody to come because all the people that have come so far combined would be like........................alot of ****** people. we can do a night drive past the christmas tree farm:p
 
I'm down for Friday!!! NO CLASSES for me on fridays. Any time on friday sounds good and I'll be there. We can take some pictures for the HOW-TO.
 
This Friday is the fourth of July so you can count me out and at least for the rest of the summer Friday's are out for me. I have a regular commitment.
 
I kinda like thursdays because of the lack of traffic on weekdays. But I'm in no matter what day. Let's do Alex's fogs!
