Joly Cow.. So i went to 5th/pico some place called Beverly Auto Body and Tires.. I stay in line to get my tire patched up, my rims already off about to get work done on after they patch up a customers tire before me. As i look at how they work, it scared the SHIZ out of me.

First off, i told them to take off/put on the lugs by hand, not by the gun.... They totally ignore what i say and proceed on using the gun

Second, they all use METAL-like tools that can scratch up the polished lip of any aftermarket wheels.

Third, they litterally threw the customers rims onto the floor to take his second pair of tires off the rims.

After I saw the "third" part, i was like "f this" and told the store owner to put my wheels back on BY HAND.. I was in NO WAY going to get my tire patched up at this place. This really pissed me off.. I woke up at 10 in the morning to get my wheels patched up and ended up wasting 5 dollars and 30 minutes of my life.

Anyone know a good place to get my wheels patched?

yeah i was about to say, they patched one of my tires for me when i got a nail in it. it still leaks air but very slowly... i just fill up once every couple weeks.
i know i should just buy another tire, but my god oem potenza's are stupid expensive.. i'd rather replace all 4 tires in a few more months. and then i might as well get new wheels toooo.......man, i should start a savings account just for mods

have fun at wcn say hi to jeff/jenny for me

I might visit WCN every week for the heck of it.. Lot of nice people over there, very clean atmosphere too .. Lots of nice things to drool over (female workers and cars).

I just looked into Griffith Park and Elysian Park and both parts are not allowing any BBQing because of the fire hazards there. I REPEAT, NO BBQING AT GRIFFITH OR ELYSIAN! I was told that some people still do, but if a ranger comes by that you're going to get shut down.

I think our next best options are either Balboa or CV. They aren't near the burn area of Griffith, so BBQing is probably okay, but don't quote me on it. I've never been to either really, so if someone else wants to step up and help out here, DO IT!

And finally, the list got split last night, so here is what should be the most up to date list. Double check it and make changes if neccesary.

0. Pooplet - Marinated meats from a mexican meat joint
1. Boneout JZA80 - + hamburger patties
2. oneDIRTYz + sodas + cups + ice
3. Benzoboi
4. richiex23
5. Eric Kim
6. Kpanda350
7. Knucklez
8. Cousin Jun
9. Jtuned/ Toyo Mike Shin
10. Hannah
11. Sunhae
12. Bro
13. Bros wife
14. Bro's baby
15. IbarraZ33
16. gsazabi - It'll be my first time meeting u guys(besides Eric)
17. Profink - more soda + drinks + ice
18. deviljon - not in the z. i'll bring something but dont know what yet.
19. Shine auto project Ken + Isaac ( maybe) - shine auto white amuse 350z w/ vsxx
20. boneout bryan w/ supercharged prelude
21. carol w/ supercharged prelude
22. Speednstylez.com owner James - G35 coupe

i've been trying to call the phone number i found for CV park to ask about bbqing, but no luck, no one picks up. it's 818-249-5940 if anyone else wants to try. would city hall or something know about it? la crescenta doesn't even have a city hall... i think we're part of glendale.

http://parks.lacounty.gov/Parkinfo.a...centa%20Valley
that's the info i found from la county's site.. the district # goes to a voicemail too. do these people not show up to work?

I just got through. BBQing is allowed in desginated areas, aka. picnic areas with a BBQ pit. Its to late for a reservation, but I'm going to call the reservation number to see if there are any large groups we need to worry about.

Okay. Just talked to the Reservation Department for CV and it turns out that there are no reservations on the 4th for the Hindenburg Area which sounds like the place to be if we want to BBQ. I say we make this spot the official site.

It is first come first serve, so the sooner people can show up the better. I don't mind going early as long as there are a few people willing to join me.

And now its populated with dirty Armenians.

The lady didn't mention what area of the park that is, but I was told there were 15 concrete tables and an outdoor kitchen area. I'll see if I can find anything else out online.

I'll PM you my number, so you can let me know when you're on your way.
