I think the plan is to meet at Hancock Park at 10am and cruise from there to Mike's place.
Hancock Park
I can meet at 436 and University if you want. Otherwise see you there.

Hey All,
I just wanted to take the opportunity to say thanks for everyone who came out. It was a great day to get together weather wise as well as a great group of folks.
It was a cool variety of cars with Camaros, Mustangs, Miatas, 300's, Chargers, a Corvette and a 350Z (our free dyno winner John
). Not sure if I missed something else here.
Covert had a nice raffle for everyone and the cookout was great also guys. Big thanks to them for putting it all together.
I could not have gotten it all done without the help of a guy who is like a son to me, Tyler Manion. Works his *** off and we have a good time working together. Thanks man
As I mentioned to the guys who have LS cars and Scott with the LT and tuning software. If you guys come back for a tune I will credit the dyno fees from the meet towards a tune. Just remind me when you call.
I will also be seeing what can be done tuning wise for the wanting Dodge boys
Again, thanks to everyone to making it a great day. Next dyno meet is Feb 21st and there will be info here on LS1 Tech and Corvette Forum.

Thanks to Mike & Tyler for their time and their stand-up act 
Nice to see some old familiar faces in John (last I saw his daughter she was a newborn) & Scott - whose car still looks fantastic for being a 97! Thanks to Randy and Evan for getting me on the list, to the fella working the grill, and to the team who put together the food, drinks, raffle, et al.
My results didn't change from early December which is disappointing if you knew the changes, but hopefully Mike can get it to where it should be for the mods with some tuning.
