Ok, Southern Californians if you had been to Crystal Cove on a Saturday in the past then you know the types of cars that turn up to this drive in Saturday deal! (Out of Staters curious about this old Saturday event-google Crystal Cove videos and check out all the awesome rides which showed up for years every Saturday rain or shine- if you like cars it will put a:D on your face) Since the Shut down of Crystal Cove for Saturday Events happened 2 weeks ago, Ford Motor Company in Irvine, California has offered their parking grounds for the New Saturday Meet Spot! Last weekend was the second Saturday meet, I have been to both so far and the turn out of Exotic, Muscle (Old-New) Hot Rods, Street Rods, Harley-Davidsons, etc... hasn't let up at all, infact the first Saturday had 600 cars in 400 spots which started at 7:00 AM and by 7:30 they were turning cars away! Last weekend, things were a little different, the neighboring building Mazda Corporation put on a Mazda Car show which I lost count looking at about 800 different types of Mazda cars lined up early waiting to get their cars in that show, which also had team Mazda race cars, drift cars etc... Those cars were all in the first Meet parking area! So they placed all the drive up people in the parking lot across from the Ford Motor Company Building! Have any of you South County People seen that lot, its big! There was a great turn out of cars bigger then most or any of the Crstal Cove Meetings included amongest them were an Awesome Red 06 Extreme Saleen Mustang, 10 Ford Gt's, 6 Authentic Shelby Mustangs, 3 Boss 302's, 3 Enzo Ferrari's, one Bright Orange, the other 2, well you can guess the color and well the list goes on! Anyways, my point is, it was fun to see and worth while! My question here is, Anyone Going this weekend??????????? Maybe We can get a group together and meet before going in?? It would be nice to have a few Saleens together and or some other types of Mustangs! It Starts at 7:00 Saturday, but my sugestion is we would have to meet up early because I'm unsure which parking area they might put the cars in this weekend!! Anytakers say I!:nice: Any suggestions on meeting spots prior to going in, let me know! So far the count on Saleens is 2, and I hope it grows!

If I can get my kitchen finished Friday I'll be there. If we can get a loud alarm clock I bet we could get Bomb there too!

:lol: Good stuff. I'm in the same boat. I'll go if my painters are done. I guess we should check back in here Friday afternoon/evening.
 
Todd:

I'm in for this Saturday. I agree we need to be rolling in the lot by 6:30 to get a good spot. The Saleen store lot or Saleen Inc. would be good places to meet up.

I drove by the Ford PAG lot last Saturday morning and was impressed by the amount and quality of cars in the overflow area as the Mazda guys took up most of the other lot.

The Saleen Store parking lot at 6:30 Sounds Good for a meeting spot Larry!:D Mike, Glad your car is back up and running can't wait to see and hear it!:nice: Dennis, wish you could come but at least you have your priorities straight!! Marcus or Jeff maybe one of you can take me along for a ride in one of your 06 Saleens??? Of course this might make me want one!:) Anyways, we've got a good head count so far and my stepson will be bringing his New for him, but Used Saleen too!
 
Happy B-Day to your daughter Dennis! How old is she going to be now?

You won't be impressed by how fast Marcus' car is right now. He's under doctor's orders not to drive it above 4k rpm :notnice:

Tell your stepson (what was his name again? sorry I'm bad with names..) congrats on the purchase! Can't wait to see it.

I approached my wife about going Saturday. All she said was my car wakes her up :shrug: We'll have to see how she's doing along with our painters tomorrow afternoon. I don't want to deprive my 7 months preggo wife of sleep nuh uh no way :eek:
 
OK,


Let's rally.

Jeff, Park your car outside fri night. You live in a good hood.
Mike, you're in. I heard your car is running good too!
Larry, your in.
Toddo, your in. Hey, get Jr. newbie to bring his new ride too! He's got insurance now right?
Is Robert back from Hawaii yet? I need to call him and get him too!
How about Gaymond brings that pretty white fox.
I think I'll bring my SSP.
Dennis, If you can sneak out great. If not wish her a happy B day from the boys.

Who else? Is Shaun around. Not too bad of a drive for him.???

OK, Saleen Store parking lot before 6:30?
 
Marcus,

Joe and company at Chicane did an amazing job with the car. It is seriously running better then it ever has before. Pulls really strong and just feels right. I still want to get it to Steve and have it tuned and see what she's making now, but I am just lovin' this thing right now. :D

See all of you Saturday morning. I'll see if my wife can bring our 2 month old future Saleen owner down around 8am to hang out for a bit too.
 
Joe is hands down, absoutely the best in the business. Ronnie and Dave were saying how well she was running earlier this evening. Glad she's back. There is a reason Chicane Sport Tuning is thriving while other Mustang speed shops are closing up. Joe is always swamped with work. Did you see that silver fox with those velocity stack intakes? Crazy! That guy is a perfectionist. Bring the new addition if you can. we would love to see her.

Ok, all of you O.C. boys.... how long does it take to get from the Spectrum to the new site and what time do we meet?
 
Marcus, The Saleen Store is not even 5 Mins. away from this location and about a minute if you were driving your Old S351!:D I talked with Robert and he's a maybe at this point, too much going on after just Honeymooning!:)
 
I got confirmation that if I park on the street I can sneak out tomorrow. No sense making it sparkle as the dew has been horrible over night lately. So that saves me some time today.

Marcus, I think Todd confirmed 6:30 am at Saleen store. Though that might be a bit late? We should probably be rolling out of the lot at that time no?

edit: nevermind, I just re-read... if the gates open at 7am then 6:30 is perfect.
 
Jeff:

6:30 should be fine if we leave the store on time.

I think they let cars in well before 7:00am, the first week-end they had the show I rolled in at 6:30 and there were already 40 cars there.

We should be able to park together if we leave at 6:30.
