    I’ve driven the road to Moreno often. I forgot what it’s called but it wraps around lake Mathews then spits you out at hick town. You take the 15 and exit a few miles in. We also do palomar woh our club which wraps anza borrego. Gorgeous cruise.

    I used to drive with Justdriveit group on the last Sunday of the month for a few years, it was a lot fun, got to meet and know very nice people but lately I have driven local with friends. I hope one day I will rejoin with Justdriveit group again.

    While it's great owners take their cool/exotic/etc cars for extended drives, for me, most of these "organized" events usually start way too late in the day, defeating the purpose of enjoying "the open road". I prefer to be mostly done with my leisure driving by the time "regular" people start cluttering the roads.

    I agree. Our club SoCal scenic Drive club we usually hit the road 7-7:30 no matter who comes or not we leave. We also don’t post routes... dangerous. For our past runs we go down to Mexico.

    I’ll be cruising both Saturday and Sunday with Robert. Just pm me or IG SCUUUUD

    I'm in for Saturday. Unfortunately my kids team game get rescheduled for 8am sunday so i'm out for that But i look forward to Saturday and some future fun with as many people as are interested. There is plenty of good driving roads down here provided we start early. No reason to not have a good sized group form. Thanks everyone for the info and help, lets keep things moving.

    I live a couple of miles from Santiago Canyon. It's a relatively short drive, not really worth going to if you have to go a long way to get there.

    Ortega Highway is pretty cool, but you need to get out really early, about 6 AM on Sat. or Sunday. Otherwise you get jammed up behind Ms. Minivan braking at each turn. Motorcyclists like to take the ride, too.

    I like the drive out in the Julian area, too.

    Thanks for the invites(?) to join, but with all due respect, I prefer smaller, more private outings and feel that anything more than 3-4 cars is too many.
    Besides, unless going for more than 2-3 hour drive, I'm often already done by 8 or so to avoid crowded roads. I usually try to get going some time between 4 and 6. Enjoy your drives safely.

    Hey guys. I live off Lake Mathews Drive (Corona) and would love to do some drives as long as they're somewhat local. I hate driving for two hours on the freeway just to get to the route. Waste of miles and time. Email me at [email protected]. Mark.

    I'm in as well. Robertpel9, I was big into NSX before my F car. See my website www.mscperformance.com. Here's a video of my last dyno run. Made almost 600HP at the wheels with an Eaton supercharger at about 16 psi.

    Regarding the Sunday Yorba Linda drive, I haven't seen anything posted for a few days. How many, if any, plan on making it? Getting up that early is tough on us retried guys!
