Lee and I have been talking, so were thinking the begining of April. That way everyone has enough notice. Still thinking San Berdo, at the No Limit Shop.

Hopefully this week, we will know something for sure.
Now thats for the offical meet, but if someone wants to have a gathering at there home or some other spot, please post it.

Hi.

Welcome to the SoCal Post. Now that your here, feel free to ask questions, give advice or just post whatever. We try to have meets from time to time.
In fact were working on one for April so check back soon.

jbclassix · 03-23-2013, 11:56 AM

That's how much a new racing tranny costs! You could even do an OD swap for that!

Silly question but : what's the idle speed ? .

Anything above 700 RPM is going to cause a rough engaugement .

If you need it , I know a decent tranny shop in Glendale .

So...I've been looking around at weekly/monthly car meet-ups around So Cal and found there are a bunch of them all over the place. Anyone ever been to the Bob's Big Boy on Fridays in Burbank? It's supposed to be real good. There is a car meet somewhere every day/night of the week. You can go for donuts and coffee in the morning or for hamburgers and shakes at night. The C/10 guys need to get off of the couch and get out to the meet-ups. I'm game.

Oh...and by the way Vince, that bumper is still collecting dust and takin' up space in my garage.

I do those and many others on a regular bases. The best site to find stuff is SoCal car culture. Lots and lots going on all the time.

OK all, I have confirmed with Rob MacGregor at No Limits Engineering for a GTG. Mark your calenders and tell your friends.

Date: April 13th
Time: No earlier than 9:00 AM (Saturday hours are 10-2)
Place: No Limits Engineering
Address: 455 South D Street, Unit 4, San Bernardino, CA. 92401

There is a donut shop right across the street. I'm thinking about having breakfast in the area, If anyone wants to meet for breakfast and or knows of a great place let us know.

I've heard that Amapola Rico Taco, at 596 North Mount Vernon Avenue, San Bernardino, CA 92411, is good and about 5 minutes from the GTG.
