Took me all this time for my arms and upper body to heal from December run to Malibu. I'm in for this one and will bring the donuts again

Nice! I'm shopping for new mufflers myself. As it turns out 14 pounds of boost will blow out the baffles in Z06 mufflers. If I get them in time, I'll be there

First off, it's Victorville, second, it's in Victorville, third.......

Oh, not a fan of Cracker Barrel. Tried it in Georgia and found the food pretty bland, sorry YMMV.

Hey.. I’m leaning out bad after 6500... so all I need to do is keep it under that and I should be fine..
Going to work on the fuel tables tonight.... increase the open injection times in the 6000-7500rpm range by 15-20% and I think all will come into a beautiful harmony:-)

If you like, send me a PM on suggested distance and I will find a route. Most are in and around the Valley. I would also think the Baldy run that you do would be interesting. Or in the summer, a BigBear meetup would be good.
