any meets going on in SF on Dec.7

I will be driving up to San Francisco on Saturday morning to watch the 49er game on Sunday and was wondering if anything was going on around the area. Would love so see the NorCal style.

There's the sale/meet at AutoRnD in Fremont, not sure who is going. @PMok usually keeps the events page of the 86Drive site pretty updated with meets http://86drive.com/events/

Yeah I'm not sure if the AutoRND thing is going to happen or get moved. The biggest meet will be Friday, and then the SCCA autox is open to all cars on Sunday.

About less than an hour give or take traffic. SF is interesting and a pain to drive around with all the traffic, parking, and signature steep inclines. When I took my friend around SF I left my BRZ at Japantown and took the cab where ever we wanted to go. My suggestion to any new city you visit, cabbies tend to always know where everything is at.

Damn that's far and I hope I don't get stuck on any hills. Well hope the hotel isn't on a hill lol. Might have to think about a cab now.

Well if you have a manual, the hand brake counts in place while you use the clutch and gas. Think of it as an adventure!

The secret is to drive the streets that outline sf and when you need to drive into the center somewhere then that's the only place you have to worry. Or if there is a stop coming up. Slow down on your climb if there are a lot if cars ahead of you so when you get to the stop. The cars have already left and your not stuck at a 45+ degree Incline. That's where the California stop takes advantage. Lol
