Socal Atom Meet 2: June 7, 2008 Cars and Coffee - Irvine, CA
Socal Atom Meet 2: June 7, 2008 Cars and Coffee - Irvine, CA
Hey Guys,
Its time again for the twice annual Southern California Cars and Coffee meet and coastal drive!!
Last time was a big blast, this time will be even better.
I am looking for a weekend somewhere in April/May where at least the following eight can come:
Calscot
Fiesty
Maverick1
MaskedSpaz
Shinoo
nicolas
wgriwold
prbisiz
Let me know if anyone else that is in Socal that is interested.
Hopefully by April, Calscot and I will get our cars fixed up with new exhausts and engine rebuilds, that is the reason for the April/May timeframe. Also I do not want to overlap Calscot's AtomfestWest08 track event at Reno-Ferley in early June, so April/May sounds good and hopefully that will provide us with good weather.
We should use the same route we had last time, but if we can include Ortega that would be great. Hopefully the construction will allow us on weekends for a reasonable drive. Any other detours that anyone else wants to take is game, just let me know which other roads around Orange county we can take.
This time we should plan the whole day, drive a lot, have lunch/dinner after. So when thinking of dates, everyone should plan for most of the day. It will be more fun if everyone can stick together to the end of the event. Fill up with fuel right before you arrive, as I plan on exhausting our entire tank before its all said and done .
Hopefully for myself it will be a much different drive. New tires, new exhaust, new wing, new shocks. I will definitely have much more fun keeping up with everyone.(Last time with those ES100's was not fun). I nominate Calscot again to lead the point, since this is his home turf, but with 500hp, I think he might leave us in the dust, maybe even lap us around the whole drive. I might have to put a brick under his accelerator and limit him to 1/2 his hp.
This was a pic from last years meet, brings back such good memories! After looking at this pic, I had to setup another event, its too much fun!
Anyway, fire away dates!!

Re: Socal Atom Meet 2 (April/May tentative date) Cars and Coffee - Irvine, CA
I am good anytime for C&C.
I should get my Atom back up and running in two weeks. Even with teething problems, mid March should be the latest. The build on my new Quiafe dog box tranny is the only potential holdup, but that's going well and I should have it back next wednesday. The engine is almost built. I am getting excited
I have put off booking any track days unitl now, but I am getting confidant enough to start looking at the track schedules. So the end of March is a good time for me. I am still planning on a coastal run up to Monterey as soon as I feel the car is reliable.

Thats great news. Let me know as soon as your engine is done so I can ask Hytech to take my car in.
As soon as I get my shocks, which should take 4 weeks to build because they are custom order, then hopefully my car will be ready for C&C. I am looking at the end of March before I get everything together(other little things I have to do as well), thats why I gave a April/May timeframe. Also to accomodate all the other socal owners to get their act together .

Re: Socal Atom Meet 2 (April/May tentative date) Cars and Coffee - Irvine, CA
I can't promise availability for any dates between now and June, as I'm planning on working a lot of weekends during that time period and don't know WHICH ones I'll have to work yet. If I'm available, though, I'll be there.
Re: Socal Atom Meet 2 (April/May tentative date) Cars and Coffee - Irvine, CA

I've linked this into the Calendar as well.
Re: Socal Atom Meet 2: June 7, 2008 Cars and Coffee - Irvine, CA
Just wanted to get an idea of how many atoms will be attending, and how many owners will be attending CC June 7.
I will be there early and just wanted an idea of how many spots I should reserve.
Also how many of us are interested in a dinner friday night, June 6, somewhere in southern California, hosted by all the socal atom owners. I would like to get some feedback on food types and the number of people that would be interested.

I emphatically vote that Friday night's dinner be held at Bob's Big Boy in Burbank, CA on Friday night. Every Friday night (for the last 40 years or so now) you can find all sorts of cool cars at Bob's (quite a few celebrity cars too)...we could recreate the Atomfest Tulsa Sonic drive in scene, have a good 'ol fashioned diner meal and hang out with auto enthusiasts. It's great fun.
