Canyon run

Alrighty guys,

I'm going up into the Malubu canyons on sun mornin the 31st of this month.

It would be nice if i could get some f-bods to join me.

Any body will be welcomed to join but keep in mind it will be a well spirited drive (***** out )

I'll pick a good place to get some food around half way through the run.

Please voice your interest in this post and i will shortly be giving you a time and meeting place.

Thanks Mike.

I was thinking that autocross and roadracing activities take place on a track? Maybe I'm confused, and stopped in the wrong forum again.

I do remember a BMW that was recently involved in a "canyon run" that ended with a tragic accident and nobody around with an ambulance and/or safety equipment.

I get a little concerned about "***** out" on something other than a race track. I agree that there are many different ways to reach your destination. The highway and the "fun way", but I don't equate the "fun way" with running a car (any car) anywhere near 10/10ths on a public road. I'm not trying to sound like your mother here, but I am glad that you are located several thousand miles away from me. That lessens my chances of getting injured or killed by you....

Please take it to the track.

My thoughts.

I agree with you fully trackbird.
I meant ***** out as kind of a joke.
perhaps it was a poor choice of words.
I have been driving hard but not 100%
For many years now and i havn't hit and or wrecked anything yet.
Thank GOD.

I appreciate your conscern thanks Mike

P.S. I might be commin your way in a couple of months I'll let ya know and perhaps we can go the track and run ***** out .
