Lets get one going... I'll be home on leave from 11 Feb-11 Mar. This is the first time I have come home on leave with a working car since I joined the Military almost 3 years ago!

We will be meeting at Hooters in Sacramento 1785 Challenge Way, from there cruise to Grass Valley park stretch our legs and some photos, our final destination will be to Dave & Busters 1174 Roseville Pkwy for dinner and good byes. We will all make up time and other meeting spots when the time comes closer. Hope to see you all there and lets make it happen!

what do you have planned?

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

Yeah, we need a few ideas rolling. I will try depending on the day and my sons sports. But ideas and planning first.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

I would really like to meet up and do a cruise. Hit Dave and Busters at the end of the cruise, kick back a few beers and chat cars. I have been stuck in the land of Imports (domestics here) for too long... I'm not from Sacramento, so I don't know a good place to meet up, so that is all up in the Air.

The reason I am not saying a track day is because last time I was home in March, I just dropped my new engine in and it seems like almost every track day I was trying to go to was cancelled due to rain.

I have 2 Contour Camera's with suction cup mounts, along with a DSLR. I can stick the Camera's on peoples cars, along with some HD pictures... Could get some good stuff and make a Norcal Thirdgen's video! I personally will be getting a ton of footage of my car because I need something to hold me over since I got screwed and stuck in Japan an extra year. Would like some footage to keep me going when I visit the desert.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

That looks like a great route! I am going to need to get a hotel or find somewhere to crash. It's a 90 mile drive to Roseville for me...

86firebirdta

5hr energy bro ima make an event page on fb make it official get the word out

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

Lol, I would but I plan on getting drunk at Dave and Busters. My Formula just so happens to be a cop magnet!

I just PMed Street Actions, they have a pretty big Thirdgen crowd in the Bay Area... Let's see if he responds.

86firebirdta

right on yea they come to are santa cruz meet be sweet if they showed up for this I dont kno if there was a certain spot you wanted to see in Grass Valley thats up for you to decide Im from Manteca and dont kno the area.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

No specific place in Grass Valley... I was looking at the map, if we we take a side road it looks like there are some good curvy roads we could hit.

86firebirdta

up to you bro your only here for a while so do wat you want.

86firebirdta

and the most important question is wat kinda beer do you drink

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

I'm a Corona guy!

I guess I will race my car after the GTG so I don't break it. It's going to look like crap because it is soo fast the clear coat flew off the roof, and of course I got attacked by a hail storm. It will be going in for paint though soon Already paid for it, just waiting for the painter to recover from Surgery.

86firebirdta

theres a reason why my 86 is called blue and bruised looks like crap

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

so going to grass valley and what are we gonna do there? did we go to grass valley on the camaro generations cruise?

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

"Grass Valley also has the Empire Mine State Historical Park - one of the more interesting state parks in the Gold Country. Because of the Empire Mine, Grass Valley was the richest mining town in California."

This I guess!

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Ah. That is the mine we went to on the Camaro generations tour. It was a snooze fest. Any other mines to check out? (you can't really go into the mines at empire so it is kind of lame).

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

We could check out whatever out there... I am not picky. I'm more looking forward to rolling around with a bunch of bad *** thirdgens and then boozing after!

86firebirdta

Jus need a small route some of the local guys should kno some nice roads to take and be able to make a day cruise out of it. And corona come on man bein from chico sierra nevada at least lol.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

I know their is another mine. I don't know if they do tours. I mean the Empire Mine was okay. I just dont wanna pay for the tour again. Because it was a snooze fest.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

Sierra Nevada of course, but not sure if I can get it in Sac... They sure as hell don't have it out here in Japan. Been stuck with Corona.

TraviZ

iTrader: (2)

I can't make this date, I will be hanging out in L.A.

86firebirdta

dont have to take the tour jus need a good place for a photo op with a good background and so we can stretch our legs travis del and john gotta kno a few good spots around for a cruise.

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

If need be, u can stay at my house. I'm in Lincoln so it would be on your way back to.Chico.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

well that ain't so bad.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

Del, you coming to this one?

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

I definitely like the route you guys chose, but the chances of me having a 3rd gen to cruise in are slim to none. Keep me down as a maybe though, as I am free that day as of now.

I'll sticky this one and if you'd like I can send out a blast to the email subscribers this week as well. There's like 125+ on the list that probably don't check here or FB often.

86firebirdta

If we even get 10 guys to show up will be a success thirdgen or not i hope camaro generations will show up and if anything i kno couple local car clubs that i can always invite

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

That would be awesome if you could do that for me! If the GTA won't make it out, you should still come hang out!

Marc Maro

I'll try to make it out, it's been a while.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

Awesome. Just updated the list. Facebook has 11 people who said they are going so far. Not sure how accurate it is going to be though.

I'm getting on a plane today to head back to Cali for a month! Woot!

86firebirdta

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

sweet Vaughn see ya there

Marc Maro

Anyone planning to attend fiddled around with tuning? I got my car tuned by kevin91z a while back but replaced both my engine and transmission since then. I bought an autoprom and have been data logging but my own tunes are still way off.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

I'll be installing an EBL ecu soon, so I will be doing some tuning. But mine is a bit different...

86firebirdta

anthony has some experience with the ebl along with other member should be able to give you a few good pointers to help you out.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

shoot i havnt even begun to explore what can be done with it. it is overwhelming to me. and im not good at reading what to do. i need someone to show me. so im doing my fuel system. doing the spark and fuel curves, if the car doesnt ping or have high knock counts and runs halfway decent then im done. otherwise i'll save up for some self tuning computer or switch to carb.

86firebirdta

My buddy brandon says hes goin to roll with us hes in a 04 stang real nice guy give people somethin different to look at

WolfmanTA

Hi Bro! Looks like it was a sweet ride wish I lived closer. That would have been fun for sure. Like to take my TA for country rides. Cheers Bro
