Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Curious to know who is going to be making it to JCCS this year... Me and a buddy are thinking of making the trip down from Washington to Long Beach for the event. Who else is going to be there?

Topher88 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 ill be there for sure and i hope my car will be up and running by then! Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Im hoping to go down... its right before I start school this year, and Im from SoCal originally so Im hoping to head down there for the show and stay about a week. I havent been home in about 4yrs so Im going to try to hit it up before Im stuck doing school again. Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 thats a looooooong run Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 If I could get friday/saturday off that would be fun. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 thats a looooooong run Ive driven it before (not in the Datsun) no problem... I usually sleep well the night before, get on the road about 5am... pull off about 3pm and sleep for about 5hrs. and then make the rest of the journey the next day. I was going to try to talk my buddy into taking the scenic route by coming down the 5 and cutting onto the 101 through San Fran to cross the Golden Gate Bridge, then drive down the coast via the 101/1 and into LA. Although long, it would be a great cruise. In fact, if he doesnt want to go, I may do it myself. Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 We're tossing around the thought of going also. Brody is from near Redding, so it may be nice for him to see the fam before starting school up too. We did the trek from Redding to Spokane in the 510 sometime around 2005, but not quite as far as So Cal. Could be fun :D Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 We should totally hook up and make the trip down there. If we take the five the whole way down, my only rule is to stop in Red Bluff to eat In and Out (most northern one). Quote Link to comment
gonzo Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Gotta stop at "In n Out".... Jus gotta! Looks like fun. If I attend, this will be my first year. Not sure if I will take my Dime though. Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I'm totally down for the required pit stop, but there is indeed not an In N Out in Red Bluff. There is for sure one in Redding though, which is just north of Red Bluff. We would have to stop in Red Bluff anyway to drop off our dog at Brody's parents' on the way down. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I was fairly certain that there was one in Red Bluff... I had this conversation with another Californian friend I worked with us up and I thought we looked it up. I always thought it was in Redding, but I thought I was proven wrong. Oh well, either way I want In N Out. Quote Link to comment
Alex Datsun Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Dam if you cool guys are going you give me the itch....dam but ASB if the month after. Dammit. Quote Link to comment
thatguy Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Plenty of in&outs in SoCal. Quote Link to comment
arck001 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Im planning on attending this year. Should be fun. Quote Link to comment
Jermyz33 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I would consider going if I can actually get my car up and done by then. Would be a close one though. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Im making no promises that Ill be going, but Im going to be trying litterally as hard as I can to get there. The car should make it no problem, but I have to make sure I can get off work for a week and I have gas money. Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Well keep me updated in your plans, I live not too far from I5 on your way down. Would be cool just to see what it is like. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Yeah, JCCS is huge so its really something I want to attend. Quote Link to comment
mrbigtanker Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 There was probably almost 400 or maybe more cars total.its pretty cool.Its right up against the Queen Mary in Long Beach.I would like to put my truck in it the way it is.You guys should come down any way its a cool place to be.

BRE510 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I have participated every year with two cars and will continue... Come on down. The more the merrier. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 We did it last year. It's a beautiful drive.. until you get south of Redding. A few hours into the barren nothingness, you start asking yourself, "What was I thinking...?" Was quite an experience.. not as fun as Canby, but cool to see, nonetheless. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Yeah the stretch from Sacramento to Bakersfield is horrible... Then it's ok-ish, but really doesn't pick up until Pyramid Lake. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I think it'd be fun to put together a banzai In-n-Out run to Redding and back.. such a great drive. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Ive thought about that... my girlfriend has never had In N Out and has never actually been to California, so I contemplated making a dive run down there, but she says 10hrs is a little far for hamburgers. Im still thinking of doing it though. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Sounds to me like she just doesn't "get it". Quote Link to comment
