>>Let's not forget to give credit where it is due, thanks goes to dbwilldo Don, Clover and Tracy .It was then who originally thought about Julian Run. You will see that is the case at beginning of this thread. Check out sone Julian run photos at the gallery.


Oopsie! Yes, It was a team effort, and everyone involved in the planning deserves a big thank you! This kinda thing is what I look for in a driver club of any kind. The roads were well suited to our cars, and well free of traffic, mostly.

Only close call for me was rounding a right-hand hairpin by m'self, and a full grown mule deer doe jumped into the road up ahead from the left, and stopped, startled! I hit the binders, honked the horn once, and she looked at me but didn't move! I was still comin' on, but as I was slowing, couldn't tell if she was gonna jump one way or t'other, so I honked long and loud again! She jumped back to the left, and spronked back into the trees, and I skidded a little to the right, and blasted on. It musta been my headlights!! Fun Run!

BCNU,

Just checked out the new website for SCMM. EXCELLENT!!! Very good job.

BTW, was anyone able to get their tires to break loose (slide) while going through the corners? Just wondering. I pushed mine hard enough to leave a stain in my pants (only one) when my brakes started to go away between Palomar and Lake Henshaw while playing catch up to the main group.

I just posted some pics to the growing number in the gallery. Look for the southern California events pages 20 on. BTW Des and I had a great tim at the Julian Run. We are looking forward to the next event!!

 

I got my my tires to skid at least two times...once on the road just off the freeway and the other time on the way up to the top of Mt. Palomar. It was GREAT!

 

What a truly awesome event! Many MINI's, perfect weather and great roads!

Thanks to all that came out! It was a truly impressive showing.

If you haven't checked out any of the pictures yet, there are some good one in the SoCal region gallery. Also, take a minute to visit the new website at http://www.scmm.org. If you didn't get a chance to sign up with SCMM on Saturday, you can do so on the website too!

Again, thanx to everyone who came. Watch soon for the next event!!!

 

Great Job on the SCMM web site.
Really attractive and easy to navigate!
JB

 

I posted some pictures also...in the regional section under Socal...I'll put more up soon when I lift some stills off the vidoe I have.

BTW, the website looks great! Excellent job!

 

Thanks for all the positive feedback....HUGE PROPS to Tracy, our President, for her awesome website design! And thanks, Don, for your great energy, computer savviness, and especially for your great MINI spirit!

Group hug, guys!
