i only been to angelas crest 2 times but all ob them were at nite around 10 till 2... if u guyz go up i say go mount wilson its shorter but we no wher the top is tho... n thers a parkin lot in the mid n u kan do dounuts and 180's in ther is quite fun thats wher i practice kuz cops dont go that far up but they camp it at the bottom n wait for your ***.... i see sum go up n follow you n pull u over to tell u to go back down if u dont hab any business going up and if u had like only one mod on ur car there gona question it... i would b down to go but not 9am... thats hella early... n plus thats day time u wont b able to see the lights ahead on the oncomin so its not as good... but what do i know i never been ther in the day it mite b better... u kan actucally see awt ur doin then haha... im like a bat i kan only see at nite... hehe

 

yeah... personally I prefer night also, even if it's more difficult to drive hard at night

 

Oh hell yeah. Thanks. Shoot, if you get tired, I'll cover you, and we'll just switch off, lol.

 

Personally, I would much rather do it during the morning/day light because it seems to be a lot safer then night. At night, the ground is usually not at its best and can get slippery. You can't see very well. Fog can be a big problem(sometimes).

 

Plus the fact that some of us coughcoughmecoughcough have never driven there before and therefore don't know the road and what to expect. So it's like driving blind.

 

...so you're telling me that none of you guys take cues from the car ahead to determine how you take a corner? Cues i.e. when the brake lights shine, how hard the car leans forward, corner entry speed, etc.

...just wondering. it's late. I have a headache.

 

umm so whens the next mountain run?
location?
date?
time?
how many is going? <-- hope more then 4 peeps go?

 

Most of the people don't have much experience, and I think its easier during the day thats all I'm saying....could be wrong though. And the blind corners are....scary since you dont know who or what can be coming around.

MyS13,

Location/Destination: Lake view terrace(a small road from there) and hit Little tujunga road to Soledad cyn. to Aliso Cyn. to Angeles Forest Hwy. to Upper Big Tujunga Hwy. to Angeles Crest Hwy. to Silverwood Lake to Crestline to Back side of Arrowhead lake and on to Big Bear by way of Fawnskin(I will get a more detailed version later on hopefully, maybe even a map)
Date: Late July, a Sunday
Time: We will be leaving from Lake view at 9am SHARP, so be there around 8:30am(we will be meeting at a small parking lot, I will find out which one soon)
How many: Looks like...4 or 3 for now, I might be able to get some more.

I will make the offical Mountain run thread when there is a set on date.

 

thers a big parking lot on the crest when u first get off the 210 to get on hwy 2 n then like may b if u pass one or 2 stop areas i say its about 5 min drive if u drive kinda fast up but u dont wana starve you motor so u dont go up as fast n u needa cool your motor at that point any wayz but you kan make it all the way up with no prob if you trust your car enough but thats a good point to stop becasue after that it gets a lil faster from there and then between the crest thers mt. wilson theres 2 big parking lots wher u can do dounuts like a i sed i say we go up mt. wilson cause theres hair pins up there.

 

bring a broom stick if any one can so that way you can brush off rocks cause if one ob you guyz get a rock under your car its going to sound like ur car took a dokie and make sure no 1 tails you so u hab enought distants to stop n see the rocks you need to move them outta the way or else sum 1 mite fall off because of them

 

We arent going to start on ACH, ganna start on a small canyon road(just for fun) and make it to Little tujunga.

 

sounds great too me just make the plans and ill try and see if i can get some friends to come along too!

way too early in the day for me guys... have fun don't crash be safe you know the rest

 

? Who said no one takes cues. That's what I was planning on doing. I think you're assuming too much, take advil and go to sleep and you'll be all better, lol.

 

getting a lil itchy thinking when u guys wana go! well im going to the meet at friday?july 9th. still at the tapioca express?
