April 28, Huntington Beach
 
The largest FFR car event on the West Coast will be held on the Pier at Huntington Beach Saturday, April 28. The show is open to all MFG's NOT just FFR. Go to FFR for more details and registration. It is a one day show at this point but there may be some other things planned. A group of us are leaving here at 9am on Friday and staying on the beach at a nice hotel and returning saturday after the show (4pm). It's a great show with lots to do around the pier. Come join us for a cruise, show and a lookie loo at the crowd and shopping.

I would love to attend, and have in the past, but this economy has put a crimp into my long distance driving.

You guys have fun.

Mike

No matter what brand roadster/coupe you might have, this is really a fun event. It is unbelievable how many onlookers there are and where else can you hang with such a great group of enthusiasts?

Huntington Beach Trip
 
Used to live about 1500 yards up Golden West in Beachwalk...15 years. I look for any excuse to return to HB. It was paradise for me. Will be at the AHA show in Pomona two weeks before and will try hard to go to the FFR event also.

A group will be leaving from the "westside" somewhere just west of loop 101 on I-10 at 9am. Hope some of you can join use.

Caravan to Huntington Beach
 
Mike...I would like to join youse guys on Friday morning on the I-10 Westbound. Nearest exit to me is Dysart Rd. Perhaps you can call me when you are 10 minutes away from the exit and I can rendevous with you from the entrance ramp to the I-10 Westbound from Dysart?
Give me an email @ bbryan00@cox.net or a call on my cell @ 623/570-2319 and we can discuss it. Thx
BBryan

We have a plan. Any body going we will depart from Dysart and I-10 at 9am. We may go through San Diego and up or west through Banning and Riverside. But we will leave from Dysart and I-10 at 9am. ETA HB is 3pm.

Mike, How many cobras in the caravan?

HB Trip
 
Danny...I think Mike said about 3-4 cars. I mentioned to take the southern route thru SAN on I8 and I5 to HB, but we'll see. I hate going thru Riverside and Pomona! Why don't you come along? See 'ya,,

Danr55 03-22-2012 03:16 PM

I've been promising Adriana a weekend away. This just might do it. We'll see.

jhv48 03-22-2012 06:11 PM

If you guys go through San Diego and then north on the 5 freeway, then I can probably get a few more cars to caravan north with you.

Gofastoldguy 03-23-2012 12:22 AM

San Diego route sounds good!
 
What do you think Mike? Southern route is less boring, more scenic and a more direct route to HTB. We might get a few more cars also...
Bill

Mike Brasfield 03-30-2012 10:00 AM

OK, let's go the southern route through San Diego. For you SD guys what would be a good location to meet? Give me a telephone contact and I will call when we are getting close to town.

jhv48 03-30-2012 11:22 AM

There's a park and ride at the Hiway 5 freeway and La Costa avenue off ramp in Carlsbad. We can meet you there around 7:00 AM on Saturday morning and we'll take you the scenic coastal route (hiway 1) north through Laguna Beach, Newport Beach and then into Huntington Beach. should be able to pickup a gaggle of cars on the way up. If not, the drive along the beach is worth it.

What time are you guys leaving arizona? O dark thirty?

I guess i should have read the whole thread. You guys are coming in on Friday. If so, friday traffic is horrendous. At 3pm, youll be stuck for hours trying to go north on the 5. Either get through here by noon, or take another route. Youll be hating life if you get caught. Saturday morning is a piece of cake however.

A word of advice. If you have car covers and room to bring them, do so. At that time of year, you can expect anything from morning drizzle and fog to sunny and dry. Not even the weatherman knows for sure.

Gofastoldguy 03-31-2012 02:54 AM

Southern route to HB
 
Jim...good point on the Friday traffic. We should meet earlier than 0900 don't you think? Maybe 0700 at Dysart/ I-10? We have time to decide...No hurry.
Bill

Danr55 03-31-2012 10:13 AM

Bill, To get there by 1200 you'll have to leave here about 0530. That's pretty early.

Gofastoldguy 03-31-2012 12:09 PM

Dan, you are right. I think 0700 is good enough. Remember this is the day before the show so no real hurry...I think. The wife doesn't come in to SNA until 1500 on Saturday. Reserved room at the HB Inn across the street from the pier. Will you and Adriana be coming? I'll be at 83rd and Union Hills this afternoon. See 'ya.
Bill

Danr55 03-31-2012 01:50 PM

Nope. She has to work and I will likely be in Holland, working.

mikiec 03-31-2012 03:32 PM

Need more wooden shoes?

Mike Brasfield 03-31-2012 06:01 PM

OK, 7:30 departure from Dysert and I-10 is good for me.
