you don't have to. the dirt is an after BBQ thing. most people will probably head home after the BBQ, but if you want to go to this dirt spot, then some people will head a few minutes more south to it.

this is all it is http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...08669&t=h&z=18
see how there are 4 cars? the straight part above the third car is a little hill climb
here is a small vid of that http://www.subyjeff.com/MVI_3032.AVI

there are a few ruts that you have to avoid, but it's easy to drive in there.

pigeon point lighthouse is right before the dirt spot.

and you can get some cool pics of your car at the edge with the lighthouse in the background http://subyjeff.com/gallery/d/1137-2/IMG_3065.JPG

reminder caravan post


Tri-Valley caravan

We will all meet at 845am~ at the Shell station across from hooters in Dublin, and we'll leave at 9~ when we are gathered up. Then we'll make it to the san carlos spot at 930-940. Please don't be late because we will be leaving at 9.

Shell station http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...h&z=17&iwloc=C

We are going across the San Mateo Bridge, so bring bridge toll

Make sure you all get directions to the San Carlos location, so if you get lost from the caravan or something happens, you still know where to go.
505 Skyway, San Carlos, CA 94070
or click the link below, then click on the "get directions to here" link in the bubble

The jager and I had a good parting. Meaning w00t no headache. I must have done like 8 jager bombs too.

What does the clay bar do. I have never even heard of that before? Please enlighten me.

As for my car. I am still cleaning the inside. I work construction so i got all kinds of good crap in there. Caulk, cement powder, Lunch stuff. Its gonna suck. But she will love me after words.

so i heard about the clay bar thing from this guy i work with. what it does is it takes all the dirk particles off your paint. Its actually a long *** process, but well worth it. What your supposed to do is wash it normally.. then dry. Then the kit comes with this detailing spray that acts as a lubricant and then you just scrub your car. It took off so much stuff i was actually REALLY suprised. Then you wash it again, and then you wax is normally. I have never seen my car shine so much ... you should go check it out, you will not be disappointed... just check out my car tomorrow
