Horrible Winter in Cali! If ur still on 56K, shame on u!


Heard about all the blizzards going on back East, this is how bad it is here in Cali....it was 52 degrees today....I almost had to wear a jacket! LOL

So I went to Big Bear City, CA today with a couple of my motor head buddies to break in my new 06 IX. The Supra is a 94' TT making about 550hp on 100 octane and the GTO is an 04 with an exhaust making around 350hp on pump. We sounded mean going up the mountian! Enjoy. Oh and it's the best I could do with my Sony Cyber shot 3.2M, I think my next car mod will be a better camera!



















And of course, I had to give it a full service wash and wax then I got home.

It's been pretty mild the last couple weeks. But the cool weather makes the Evo run awesome. Big Bear was really nice today...found an awesome place to eat and bought my wife 2 Thomas Kinkade's at an art gallery they have up there. It was alot of fun tearin up mountain with over 1,100hp between the 3 of us echoing up the mountian rock face. I've got some video footage, but I don't know how to host it so I can post it on here. We should meet up sometime and plan a meet up there. EVO NATION!!! lol

Redlands now...but I used to live in Victorville, and worked in B.B. There were some days I would get to B.B. in 30 minutes from Spring Valley Lake. I loved that drive.

No we went up and down the lucerne valley side. The other side is alot more fun but it's WAY out of the way to go back to Barstow and we were pressed for time. We have to organize a big bear meet for all us SoCal desert folks. There some cool stuff to do up there and it's nice in the summer time!
