Neptune's Net
 
Anyone eaten there?


I was watching "The Fast and the furious" the other night (my fav two minutes of the movie when they complete the supra, jump on PCH, race, and then get some shrimp).

It turns out that Neptune's Net is the place they stop to eat, and I read it to be a local favorite.

I've never been, but would like to stop by one of these days.

Well then... we gotta have a 350Z meet and cruise down there... hehe... whose down?

I go there all the time on the sport bike, food is good. Some of the best canyon roads in SO. CA. are in the area. Try the one right next to Neptunes, you won't believe how well your Z handles on the twistes.

It's around 160 miles from SD...a doable day trip.

"Nice ride, how much?"
"More than you can afford," says the rich guy with the girl, "Ferrari." Rev, Rev, Rev.
They look at each other and Vin Diesel says: "Smoke 'em."
And, the Ferrari becomes road kill... :cool:

Loved that movie.

Count me in on that trip.

RobertL Jan 23, 2003 09:14 PM

"More than you can afford, Pal...Ferrari!"

Woot! I wasn't really interested in seeing the movie, but the line is killer... time to go rent it and see what it's all about. :D

Funny I just saw a 360 Modena on the road. Beautiful car. Someday...

I hated that part. A 10 second supra should have left a mid 12 second ferrari in its dust. All they did is weave through the traffic with a subtle win by the supra. I would have loved to see the ferrari dude get his ass handed to him!

Same case with the porsche/civic race in the beginning of the film. Dissapointing and unsatisfying!

I think he had several car lengths on the Ferrari and finished parking at the restaurant before the Ferrari caught up.

So, who's setting up a date and time for this? Aloharacing, your thread, your schedule eh?

iris Jan 27, 2003 11:55 AM

LET'S DO IT.
 
Wasn't it Tone Loc who said that?

As far as I know, any weekend besides Feb. 17th (the OC meet), Mar. 2/9 (am trying to go on vacation then) is good for me. :icon04:

RobertL Jan 27, 2003 01:03 PM

lets do this
 
Lets pick a weekend and time....around 10 or 11 ish so we can drive for a bit (work up an appetite for my clam chowder!!)

Meet on PCH somewhere. Any suggestions!

Are you confusing the porsche / civic race with "gone in 60 seconds"? I don't recall a porsche / civic racing in F & F.

supra / ferrari: I think the film gives the impression that he DIDN'T use nitrous in that showdown. With spray, it's a 10 second car. Without (given that he didn't), it's probably in the 11's...which would make the race more realistic.

Maybe I posted this thread a bit early, but I was thinking more towards the spring...maybe in March. Reasons:

1. Warmer weather (not that it's cold, but still)
2. Hopefully, by that time, more people will have siginificant mods done to their cars (more specifically: FI, wheels, exhaust, body kits, etc)

Feedback? Ideas? Input? :D

iris Jan 27, 2003 02:08 PM

fine by me. That makes it a meet a month, what with SF Valley in Jan and upcoming OC in Feb. Any more and hubby gets jealous, LOL. Not that I still wouldn't do it, but I'm just saying. :D
