Cannot come.

Omg... Today drive thru In&Out, noticed my crickets is On! 1890 miles and only Shell gas. Roll down the window with the wall bounce back can hear it clear, it is like a bird making noise under the hood.

No worries, maybe we can try for a Saturday morning meet at C&C in Milpitas again, too.

You'll learn to love those little guys. Have had crickets since ~500 mi, gas changes do nothing, they're still chirping away.

I hear the noise in my sleep nowadays. Tic tic tic tic tic....

San Ramon/Danville is fine. We might shoot earlier for 8 PM if it's just us, GF is demanding alone time later.
know any good spot to meet? 8PM is fine. if you don't have any other ideas, I'll throw out the Peet's Coffee off the Crow Canyon exit? East of 680.

That should work. Can only make it for about 30-45 min or so then I'll need to bounce home, though.

that's cool. we can chat or we can cruise somewhere. there's an old backroad I used to take years ago, that I want to check out... not sure if it's still as awesome as it was 10 years ago, or it's all residential now.

EDIT: Ugh, just saw that Peets closes at 8pm. So if you actually want to get coffee there, try and get there a few minutes earlier.

We can check it out, sounds good.

Hey guys, some other folks had asked me about doing a Sunday meet in the morning or during the day, located somewhere in the East or South Bay. Would Sunday be a better day for folks to attend so we can get a bigger meet going, too?

I'm pretty much always free on the weekends, especially now that college football (regular season) and major motorsports season is over.

Im down for the sunday meet, if im not that wasted the night before. as for the crickets, mine does come and go. I used Chevron before and everytime i hear the bugs in the hood. then i switched to Shell and they went away, unless i push the car beyond 6k rpm or when i heel-toe everytime then they come again. IDK why its like that...maybe it has something to do with the temp of the engine or something. Right now im using VP 93.5 race gas and im getting the same results as Shell gas.

OK I'm starting a list for Sunday, see above. Location is Peet's Coffee in San Ramon off of Crow Canyon E. It is in the shopping center right off 680.

PM me or post if you're down and I'll put you on there. Anyone is welcomed, if you're not on the list on Sunday please show up, the more the merrier.

good times meeting up yesterday.

looks like my friend is flaking on me so I might not go up to the 25hrs race after all. Hmmm... drive 6 hours on the highway round trip to watch a few hours of racing? Or meet up locally and drive with fellow 86ers... tough call. Put me down as a maybe as well.
