EOS 7 SoCal to NorCal convoy afterthoughts

At my age it takes me longer to recover from a drive of this length... therefore it takes me awhile to recover from my 0130 arrival home, so i post now:
Thank you to the Saturday convoy for letting me tag along in the journey. It was somewhat un-incidental (other than the one traffic stop; and me bottoming (hard) my JDM lip in that McDonalds pothole, OUCH
) but the company and chatter on the two-ways made the drive enjoyable. This is the fifth EOS for me and each years convoy continue to increase. Thank you JamesN and Terrance in leading us there safely and to the others for making the trip enjoyable. (Terrance, JamesN +1;Phil +1;Chris,Ben, Kenny, Mike;Tommy/Rita; Ray; Wil +1; Joe +family) <hopefully my memory hadn't failed me naming the convoy participants>
The attendance and events continually improve and makes the event day go by so quickly. Thank you to the Norcal family for the gracious invitation.
The trip home on Sunday was memorable as well. The convoy started at 1645 and we arrived a varying times home depending on location. The freeway traffic was perfectly flowing and un-incidental for me. I am not sure how Edgy will respond as.
I think the most memorable moment for the majority of the Sunday convoy would have to be the dinner @ Harris Ranch. We were there for THREE Hours for the "aromatic" atmosphere and "wonderful" service.![Egads!](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/pat.gif)
I think Javy would so much recommend their Patty Melt. Which one of these (
or
) would he pick?
Thank you to ALL the contingency of the Saturday and Sunday Convoys to and from EOS. I THANK YOU. I go to these EOS s yet continually come home empty handed in terms of pics. I will post me pics later
DONE... as I took at total of ZERO pics
but I have the memories.
Let continue to Show Norcal that SoCal is hardcore and the distances will not hinder us in representing SoCal at EOS. Again thank you to Norcal for the invite and the SoCal convoys for letting me tag along in the trips.

I guess this was the perfect test of all the work on it i have done the last 2 years.... i am just PISSEd that it wasn't perfect..
& i am sure the issue is a problem with the ECU managing the Airflow from not only the SC but also the larger 80mmTB .... it is strange that i never had this issue all the way up there & it only started when we were leaving Harris Ranch...i can't imagine what changed between catching you guys at HR & leaving 3 hours later... maybe my car was pissed for being left in the STINK for 3+ hrs...but what ever it is....the system now feels it has to "go limp" like a beeeoaach eveery 20 miles or so.....
but i WILL figure it out & fix this sumbeech fo sho.
BIG THANKS to Edfrsd & his bros for hanging with my lame *** car for the last 120 + miles!! i know i would have done it for any of you also... but i also know how fried we all were & I owe youse guys some beers or what not for your moral support!!!
we are now fairly intimate with the details of the side of the road on hiway 5 about every oh...20 miles or so....
sheesh

It was indeed a very enjoyable drive up to NorCal. I really like the fact that we all drove up in a mature manner. ![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
Kenny, I hope you get your ticket written off soon man. It was unfortunate that you got a stupid fix it ticket.
Edgy, I'm under the impression that your front lip is still on
. Sorry to hear your car start to act weird on the way home.
Let me know when you want to do a shoot.
James, I hope the pothole did not totally destroy the lip.
Of course, thank you to everybody who made this event happen and for all your hard work and dedication. We wouldn't be talking about this good memories if it wasn't for you guys.![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
I had to take off early since I had to work at 5 am on Monday. I'm still wired up. Even though I'm feeling like crap right now, I can honestly say I had no regrets driving up north and back. Thank you again.

So you guys convoyed all the way out to Santa Clara? Man, you guys must be major ballers if you guys can afford the gas for the 4.5 hour drive up there...Nice to know that a good time was had. ![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
P.S I'm gonna talk to some people in this forum and see if we can organize our own EOS meet here in Southern California.
