List updated. Also, i was able to scout the dana point locations a few weeks ago. Ortega hwy is crowded, so it wasn't much of a fun drive, although i got to enjoy the scenery since that's how slow i was driving (stupid prius not using turnouts and too much oncoming traffic to use passing lanes). I may look again and see if the are fun turn off's from the main road that we can use.

Have you guys driven Upper Big Tujunga? Just off of Angeles Crest Hwy? That one's always fun, and not usuallly too crowded.

that's actually one of the areas i wanted to hit - but since we have SD folks coming, i wanted to do something more in the middle of SoCal.

so i went to check out Cars and Coffee at Saleen (yes THAT Saleen) in Corona this morning, and i think the space they have there and the other cars that show up would make a really good jump off spot for our meet. The organizer was really cool and even said they'd make arrangements for a large group of M2's...probably front and center. hopefully the guys from SD can make it up to Corona before our drive down to Dana Point. In any case, let's keep trying to spread the word about this event to get the largest group of M2's in one spot!!!!

Here's some pics from this morning

Meet Update!!!!

Finalized Date: 7/29/17
Jump-off meeting spot: Cars & Coffee in Corona 7-9AM
2755 Wardlow Road. Corona, CA

Preliminary Itinerary: Meet at Saleen in Corona at 6:45AM for Cars & Coffee, cruise to Lake Elsinore, get gas and wait for people who can't make it to Corona. Spirited Drive thru Ortega Hwy and other back roads to Dana Point, have lunch in Dana Point, end meet.




I'm going to check the roads again in an hour or so and look for some back roads off the main highway and gas stops. Since the jump off will be in Corona, it will be better to go down the 15 to Lake Elsinore, then cross over to Dana Point.

Sounds awesome! If we get a bunch of us there and take pics, I bet we can get ourselves on the front page!

Btw, I'm coming from central LA, so I may be one of those people not able to make the C&C haha.

List updated.

here's the route i have mapped out:

https://goo.gl/maps/NYXjURzCMKN2

7/29/17
Initial meetup for Cars & Coffee 6:45AM - 9:00AM
Saleen
2735 Wardlow Rd, Corona, CA 92882

I'll coordinate w/ the organizers of the event to see if we'll be able to have a space reserved for us. You guys don't need to show up at 6:45 exactly, but hopefully not later than 8AM so we can have a nice turnout at this event. We'll leave Corona at 9AM


Cruise down the 15 fwy to meet w/ the SD folks and anyone else who couldn't make it to Cars and Coffee. We'll fill up the gas tanks, then wait at Albertson's for any stragglers. We'll leave Lake Elsinore at 10AM.
Chevron/Albertson's ETA 9:30AM.
16830 Lakeshore Dr, Lake Elsinore, CA 92530


We'll cruise thru Ortega Hwy, and take a backroad to some campgrounds, then back to the main road. This backroad is paved, but there's a lot of loose gravel, steep drops, no lane markers, and its technically two-way. it's dangerous to go really fast, but it's a lot of fun to just drive. at the end of the backroad, i saw some park rangers, so let's not upset them by tearing up the roads.

After the backroads, we'll head straight thru Ortega Hwy to Strand Vista Park in Dana Point for one last picture opportunity together w/ all the cars. It's a large parking lot, so we should be able to get all of us together in one shot.
Strand Vista Park ETA 11:30AM
Pacific Coast Hwy & Selva Road, Dana Point, CA 92629


We can get Lunch after pictures, it's just a short drive to the restaurant.
Wind and Sea ETA 12:15PM
34699 Golden Lantern St, Dana Point, CA 92629

After lunch, we'll go home. Most likely i'll go back thru Ortega to get back to the IE

we still have a lot of time for the plans to change. We can probably do an intermediate stop for the LA-area folks before going down south for the canyon runs. let me look more into this - maybe get a shop involved.

I'm in Long Beach... we are all over SoCal. I don't mind driving. If the first stop is in Corona, I'll be there. If it's SSR/Santa Ana, that's fine too. You can't appease everyone, but if there a better intermediate location to meet up and get a bigger draw, that helps getting everyone together.

It's all about meeting up and enjoying the experience. Whatever the case or location, I'm looking forward!

Thanks for coordinating and all your efforts.
