Note the following change in time. ZGuy and I did a trial run over the weekend and found a new, fun and challenging route that should leave everyone with a smile on their face. Getting to Neptune's later in the afternoon, it was painfully obvious that if we don't get there before noon, parking will be impossible. So, we agreed to change the meet time for 9:00 a.m. with a 9:30 a.m. sharp departure time. We have a plan B in the event Neptune's is just too full.

The meet at StarBucks is just to get us all together. So, don't plan to spend too much time chatting there. The canyon run will be the meat of the meet and we can decompress, share, eat and chat at Neptune's or our plan B spot. Afterwards, we can continue the run if we're still up for more twisties.

Feel free to bring a radio. Check your tire pressure. Fill up with at least a 1/2 tank of gas. PM me if you don't have and want my cell number.

Those that want to drive more aggressively can take the front. I recommend ZGuy take the lead car spot. Everyone who wants to take it easy is obviously welcome to do so. I plan to do just that because I got my fill of take it to the limit driving yesterday.

Time: 9:00 a.m. 9:30 a.m. departure
Location: StarBucks Coffee Shop

Awesome guys. Thanks for planning everything and I will see u there.

 

man I totally want to go... but long beach grand prix is that day

 

Come on Jeff. Take off the skirt! You can watch cars drive around a track, or hang with friends, and DRIVE your car through the canyons!

I will be there, but my wife says we have to stay in the back, but as an ole formula ford driver, I would love to be in the front pack!

 

I had a chat with another forum member and we discussed safety and liability issues. So, here is the legalese that should be read.

DISCLAIMER AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY

Canyon runs are an inherently dangerous activity and all persons in attendance assume the risks and hazards of the run. By appearing at this meet and engaging in the run, all attendees expressly agree and stipulate that no liability may attach to My350z.com. All attendees are individually responsible for any damage, injury, death or other loss directly caused by the negligence of that forum member according to the laws of the state of California.

Neither I nor any attendee is an organizer. I and all attendees disclaim any and all liability for casualty, personal, property or otherwise relating to this meet as an organizer. By appearing at this meet and engaging in the run, all attendees expressly agree and stipulate that no liability may attach to any attendee as an alleged organizer. This is an express waiver of any claim against any attendee under the theory of liability for organization of an event.

The long and short of the above means, everyone, you're on your own. Make sure your insurance is up-to-date. And, if you haven't already done so, check out this thread: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....threadid=45206
