We could meetup at the Panera Bread parking lot in La Canada at 8am on a Saturday or Sunday. Let me know if there is interest and I will take care of the logistics.

Hey Patrick a couple other guys mentioned something to me about meeting up when I was buying my car. I can do Saturday I'm pretty sure.

Can we do 7 instead of 8? 8 is usually late and the roads are jammed up a bit. I'd be down to come though!

Keep in mind that it's only going to be about 44 degrees on Saturday around 7am. If you're on cups, be careful. Don't be flying thru there. I may just have to bring the Audi to be safe. If you're running 4S's then you're good to go.

Excellent! So let's plan on meeting this Saturday 2/20 at 8am at the upper parking lot of the Target in La Canada. Address: 980 Town Center Dr, La Cañada Flintridge, CA 91011
I will update the original post with this info and please DM me if your plans change.

It is true Angeles Crest starts to be busy around 8am but it should clear up when we get to Angeles Forest.

Looking forward to it!

Enjoy everyone. It’s so cool to have a bunch of 997 GT3’s be able to get together. Drive safe. Post some pics.

That’s really neat you’ve garnered some interest in a cruise. I took a Sprinter recently around that loop with the family and it’s pretty sweet. Have fun and be safe.

if you ever head north for a trip, let me know. It would be nice to drive with some others. There are some really cool, long stretches of choice tarmac (1.75yrs fresh mind you).
