Ok, i didnt read your previous post, but that kind of gave me chills and excitement.....

I wish we all could do this Halloween Night!!!!

I guess a spooky night in Nov. is also good. I personally dont want to be taking the turns fast, not with these tires at least...

I actually want to go up there on the border of where weird stuff happens...I mean there will be a lot of us there, right?? So why not......

I'm down for some fright......just dont want to die LOL

Kioshi · 10-22-2009, 12:46 AM

If our electronics malfunction, we'll all just hop into Yaris Sedan's car, he's a mechanic, he'll pull us out from there.....I've heard he's quite the driver, especially in panick situations like the one mentioned above....

contraband831 · 10-22-2009, 01:48 AM

nice! pizza, a cruise, and a haunted road, this is getting GOOD

YarisSedan · 10-22-2009, 02:34 AM

If we do this we might consider getting some long range walkie talkies. If we all buy the same brand and set them to the same frequency it could be a cool event. We can talk to each other as we drive and warn each other too if a car is comming so we can stay closer to the shoulder. Also good so we can let each other know if we can to pull over to take pictures or decide where we are headed. And then just keep them with use for the next meet. So we dont all get lost and loose half the group like some of our other meets. Also when we set up future meets once we are in range we can get in contact with other members to find the exact spot. Such as the great mall meet where half of the people met in the parking garage where others were outside in the parking lot. If we had walkie talkies we would be able to contact each other.

This one is only 35 dollars. And comes with 2. So 2 people can buy one set and split the cost. Plus it has a 14 mile range. There are some even cheaper ones out there that have a 3 mile radius.

jrjrdinh · 10-22-2009, 03:19 AM

oh man this topic got fun :D

also i have four cobra (12 mile) and two midlands (14 mile) walkie talkies

i don't mind bringing em to let people borrow, but i'm not sure if i have enough battery for all six of them haha

so we all have a date we wanna try out for? Friday, Nov.13th or Saturday, Nov.21st?

We're going to need an official vote on where to cruise. Then when the cruise spot is picked we can choose somewhere to eat either before or after the cruise, probably after. And then we can decide on walkie talkies as well. I for one like the idea but the slim budget doesn't. Although splitting the cost with someone should make it bearable.

We can do Calaveras Hills or we could try going up Skyline / Highway 9 or we can cruise through Woodside (nice upscale neighborhood in the foothills). There's also highway 17.

ezhacker1 · 10-22-2009, 04:16 AM

i dont know much about those other highways, but i know that 17 will be more of a race than cruise, you know, practically 2 hands most of the way dropping 3rd the whole way down. Last time i drove that highway was over summer in a toyota sienna 2ways every day for 5 days...i left the yaris at home as it was still relatively new.

Yeah pizza box is really good. Its a hole in the wall place. And really tiny. But for i think $3.50 you get a piece of pizza that is bigger than your head. But the owner is really rude and talks shit about everyone in vietnamese. Its like she hates her life and her job you can see it on her face. When your pizzas ready she will slap it down on the counter and yell pizza. And will walk away. Funny thing is if there is a room full of poeple waiting you have to kinda guess if its yours or not.

Only thing about meeting there is there is only enough seating room for about 5 or 6 people and the parking lot is small too. Unless we park at golfland which is next door. They do have the king kong pizza which is probally the largest pizza i have ever seen in my life. It can probally feed 20 people.

If everyone can copy/paste jrjrdinh's format and put their name next to what their choice is...that'd help out organizing what will be the final result...

@tomato, I think someone mentioned they wanted to eat after the cruise but I don't mind either
@kioshi, you guys planning on buying your own walkie talkies? :O

Kioshi · 10-22-2009, 02:58 PM

Jrjrdinh....if more than 6 people show up, i may tag team w/ advocate to get an extra set of walkies...

I'd prefer to eat before the cruise, just so...people that want to eat and hangout can...and not have to go through the whole cruise just to eat and greet....

So far, it looks to be 5 people for sure attending, once the details are set in stone, there will be six people total.. I will tell Joseph about it..

jrjrdinh · 10-22-2009, 03:20 PM

ok cool, also about the whole cruise thing after eating sure i'm up for that too, i'm a pretty flexible guy :D

one more person needed and we can put this into work :]
