Anyone got enough guts to go canyon running with me?

haha...since Tuan wanted me to let you guys know when and where meets were going to be held at...since he felt left out that i went to an S2k meet. I decided to let you guys know my next S2k meet...details are not set yet but i just wanted to know if you guys would even want to go? Its going to be held in the azusa canyons(angeles nat. forest) and we're taking the canyons up and down. Its foremost a S2k meet so i'mma be in the back but if you guys wanna come you can join me and the s2k dudes up there. Anyone interested? If you are then just IM sometime and let me know.
Everything is AT YOUR OWN RISK! If you can't hang then let others pass and take it at your own pace. First and foremost is SAFETY. I dont want to lose a civic guy just cause some guy was on his tail and he decided to take the turns faster than he already was.
I suggest you have at least some suspension mods because i went canyon running on stock ride...NO WAY can you even finish the canyons w/o almost barfing from your stock ghetto ride. We can have a fast/intermediate/slow group. Aiite lates guys.
After the run they're going to dim sum and i dont think theres enough room so we can grub somewhere else. We can take more pics somewhere...cruise down pch and then after that everyone could head out. I don't know. This will take place MOST Likely in october because fires have shut down the roads for now. Give you some time for some suspension mods.

eh, knowing me and my heavy foot, i'll fly off going downhill... n i'll probably get way behind going uphill since my cars so damn slow.... canyon runs are fun tho, i just love driving through the topanga pass to get the malibu, too badd theres always that one person backing up traffic but then i'm glad cause they're the ones who prevent me from flying off
