Hope everyones doing good. We will talk about the San Pedro drive at our next meet. Maybe we can do an all day thing or something. If you have any ideas let us know. BTW, for those who can take a day off from work, some of us might stay in State Line Sunday night to drive back Monday, just an idea.

Hope you get it soon. Sounds like a good deal. My car will be down for a week or two also. Im getting racing seats with harnesses and a harness bar put in. Also the trans guy is doing some more work on the trans and valve body and he might test drive the car for a couple days with a scanner and gauges hooked up. We had some valve body pressure issues.
Oh well, you cant win them all 
but I should be good to go by the end of the month.

Cool, I just registered at LVCFO to invite you guys. It would be great if you guys could join us. It will make for some great pictures if a bunch of cars roll up. Very soon I will post exactly what spot or casino we will park at so we can all meet up. Spread the word for me in LV! We'll be there Sunday the 29th in the afternoon, I'll post up more exact times/locations soon. Thnx.

New cruise update!! OK guys, did some research and have directions and info. According to the map, it is an average drive of 3hrs but is usually done in 2.5-3hrs. So we will be leaving West Covina by 10am and plan on arriving to Primm NV (Stateline) by 1pm or so. We will make a stop on the way for their in case someone needs to use the restrooms and to gas up. Once in Primm we will park on the Buffalo Bill Casino lot. They have more parking and the casino/hotel is a little bigger than Whiskey Pete's. A few side notes;1) under 21 guys, youre okay. There are a lot of stores, shows and even roller coasters there in Primm, also a lot of good eating; 2) if your wife/gf is coming tell her there are some large outlet mall stores there she can go to, so make sure you hide some loose cash in your pockets fellas! Myself and maybe a few other guys might be staying there till Monday, if you want to join us I believe the rooms at Buffal Bills are about $15 a night, pretty cheap. This way Monday will be a nice traffic free drive back home. If you havent been to the stateline check out the link, lots of cool stuff, shows, stores, movies, comedy clubs, etc. Hope to see all you guys there!

BTW, dont YahooMap Stateline NV, it is an actual city in NV near Lake Tahoe and will show as being a 7hr drive away. The Stateline we're headed to is actualy Primm NV.

We'll be planning more future stuff. Hope to see you in action soon.
I updated the list of guys going, some by first name others by their username. I also included some of the guys that are a little under 21. If Im missing someone or you want to add a friend or someone not on the forum let me know. This is not strictly a GM thing, everyones invited, especially if theyre fast!

Hope we have a plan to keep everyone together!
The guy in the front should slow down until the last guy catches up.
Communication between the first and last car will be needed.
Forget the walkie talkie, may be illegal. Cell phone hands free should keep us together.
We will all need the leader's cell phone number then.
I sure Nate will figure something out!

I got it. We wont be speeding all crazy and the 15 is a straight shot. we'll have maps and each others cell numbers. Also the passengers can act as navigators, or at least use the phone while we drive. We'll be okay. Im gonna have a front, middle, and rear guys making sure we stay together, depending how many cars make it. Any questions, Nate (626) 372-3589
Sunday, March 29. Meeting at the Bobs Big Boy at the West Covina Mall 9-10am. (leaving by 10am)

Doesn't mean we can't have fun!
Anyone who wants to do an on the roll exchange just has to do it way out
front of the group. Then slow down and get back in the pack!
I'll PM you my cell phone so you can make a list.
