I'll offer the extra room. A little out of your way. But you can make Cali in a couple hours.

Well let me know. Me and the wife own a 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath, townhouse. So there is all ways 2 bed room open and 1 bathroom. The bathroom you would have to share with the cat. So hope you don't mind that.

Damn it! All you Northerner's are pissing me off! I want to take the scenic route! I am seriously thinking about driving all the way "up there" just to drive back "down here" with you guys!!!!! There really isn't a "scenic route" from San Diego to ORANGE COUNTY (by the way, that was for all of you who continually refer to the show being in LA... It's not in LA damn it! It's in Orange County ) . All I get to see on the way up there is stupid over crowded freeways full of mini vans on their way to spend too much money at Disneyland. This sucks.

Rod.

I think you guys mean Hwy 1 not 101. Hwy 1 is one of those drives you just have to do in your your lifetime. Might as well do it now

Well I was talking about 101. Check out my pics on the previous page. 1 is awsome, but would take too long and too much gas. 101 is almost as nice and is only a little more mileage than taking 5.

We should do a hwy 1 cruise though sometime for us up here in the bay. Veyenyl, what part of the bay are you from?

Everyone on the forum should buy a set of ZDriver decals so as to be identifiable by fellow members. Chcck out the thread in the Z32 forum if you haven't already. Someone finally had some made and they look good. $4.00 for a pair.

I'm probably just going to take I5 down with some other ZONC members. 101 is definitely more fun, but since it takes longer, I don't want to hit Socal during the mind-numbing afternoon rush hour. ^^ Plus, I'm interested in testing out my turbo's long-range gas mileage on I5; last year, my NA made it to Anaheim without refueling, so I want to see how far the turbo will make it.

Now thats dedication

Or is it insanity

Either way, I wish I could be there. Sucks only being a couple hours (if that) away and still not being able to go

I'll definitely be there next year. Well, as long as I'm still breathing and have all my limbs.
