Man! I am sad I missed out yesterday. I don't get on this site near enough anymore. Dang work. Anyway, I am going to try to keep better tabs and make it down to one of these events in the near future.

On a side note, about every month or so I remember I have 4 beautiful tires just waiting for someone to give them a chance to prove themselves on a camaro. I put an add in the classifieds on this site but I am not as smart as SSOOCH (how embarrassing!) so I can't figure out how to put a link in this reply to that thread.

Anyway, it says:

"I have a full set of 20" Pirelli PZero tires that I put about 600 miles on before changing to all seasons (613 miles to be exact). Just as an FYI, I changed to Yokohama Parada Spec-X's and they were totally awesome during the Utah winter. Didn't slide around once, and it's my daily driver.

(2) 245/45ZR20
(2) 275/40ZR20

Selling entire set for $700, but would look into selling in 2's. Prefer local pickup, but if you want them shipped, buyer would be responsible for shipping costs as well."

Spent the day out at Miller Motorsports Park for the "Utah Grand Prix" of the Le Mans American Series. It was awesome. Those are some series, series cars out there. The best part however was the Team Chevy tent where you could test drive all their new cars. I got to take a 2010 Corvette Grand Sport around their track. Talk about an incredible car! I want one. Here is a video of the race I shot on the iPhone 4.

:( I wished I could have went to check it out. The GF was sick and I wanted to take care of her. Great video. Sounds like you had a blast. I need to keep the Miller Motorsports calendar on my mind so that I can make one of these events...

I can't believe I missed the coffee meet too. I watch this forum frequently, but somehow missed that...

You need to stop stealing the "sticky icky" out of the evidence room and smoking it!

Hey ya'll! Long time no post!

I'm back from my totally awesome trip!
Las Vegas, San Diego, San Francisco, Seaside, OR, Vancouver, WA, Crater Lake, OR. Now my Camaro's been in every state from here, west!
Went almost 4,000 miles to the dot. Passed 10,000.0 miles, 11,111.1 miles, and 12,345.6 miles, and took pics of each one.
I'm gonna filter through my 2500 pictures and choose the best, then post them in another thread. I posted some pics of the aftermath, and thats only part of it, I did wash her half way through, but couldn't find another hand car wash since then.
Some things I found out/did:

Found out San Francisco's roads are horrible in a nice Camaro. Potholes everywhere!
Drove litterally the greatest road in my life: California's Highway 1 was spectacular, but on the northern-most part of it, far north of San Fran, highyway 1 goes through the redwoods, over mountains, cuts away from the coast, and ends at hwy 101; probably 15 miles of this stretch. The speed limit is 55, but the road is so curvy, and steep in parts you won't hit 55, but you can if you want, cause thats the speed limit. There were probably a hundred curves with signs to take it at 20 or slower. It was litterally the best road I've ever driven! And I've driven some sweet roads!
Found out my car is slow here :( It was so much fun, and noticably faster near sea level. I knew it would be quicker, but it was so much more fun! The first time I hammered it at high altitude after, I was actually disapointed!
Guess I need to get her tuned, and maybe some high flow cats, to give me that extra umph!
I may or may not have set a new personal high speed in my new Camaro, possibly 120. May or may not have gone faster if there wasn't a car on the horizon. Still doesn't come close to my old Camaro's high of maybe 151. However it may or may not have been a lot smoother than my old one, maybe.
May or may not have found out we can set our cruise control above 100mph! A lot of cars won't let you set it above 80mph, such as the 300C, or Charger, even with a hemi! (unless they changed it) I may or may not have set mine at possibly 103, maybe.
Saw a least one of every color of new Camaro, except ABM, didn't see even one of them!
Up north, it almost seemed a lot of people hadn't seen many Camaro's, I had many, many pictures taken of my Camaro, and made several boy's days, letting them sit in my car, etc.

All in all, it was absolutely fantastic, and I'd do it again, if I could get more time off.

---------------------------------------------

So concerning our next get together, lets go on a cruise this saturday! Lets go on that cruise through the canyon that Slick's been talking about!

I washed my car at least five times on the road I always googled for a hand car wash hahah.. So now that your back we should all plan a cruise soon I miss that it was fun times..

PS One day soon I still want to get my fog lights ...... Just need the cash

SSOOCH · 07-12-2010, 11:18 PM

The only thing I have planned for Saturday is Cars & Coffee and then get my SPOHN toe links installed after. That's about all the time I can spare so I won't be available for a cruise.

Oh and that pic of all those bugs on the front of Brain's Camaro is disturbing!!
