Our day:
We met at 11:30am on 3/13/99 (sat) as planed infront of Ruby Palace
Restaurant in City of Industry. We all parked together and admired each
others cars while introducing ourselves then had dim sum for lunch. After
lunch we then admire our cars some more and be motorheads for about an hour
outside the restaurant. The parking lot was packed with weekend crowd. Our
section of the parking lot looked like a Mitsubishi dealership with all our
3000/stealths. We then cruised down to a local performance shop to check out
accessories. We drove in a long single line and drew lots of attention; even
the attention of a 3000GT driver in the on-comming traffic lanes. He must be
thinking "where was my invitation!?" After checking out all the goodies we
could buy for our cars we cruise again to SpeedZone. There fellow 3S owners
battle it out in Top Eliminator, Slick Track, Formula, and Turbo Track. This
was a great start for a S. Cal gathering. We were expecting 4-5 cars but 10
showed up. Future gathering are already in the planning and it includes:
Import Showoff in Palmdale, a weekend at a road course, and a day of 125cc go-
cart racing! George |
