Due to COVID-19 restrictions and the ongoing global pandemic, SCMM’s annual holiday party and gift exchange has been canceled.
The party is normally held on the first Sunday in December, at Motoring Magic in Thousand Oaks. Having 50-60 people inside that confined space is not a good idea. So in the interest of staying…[Read more]

Lance, you are correct about the road from Paso to PCH. We will take Highway 46 west and then turn off on Old Creek Road for a very scenic drive down to the coast.
Let’s keep out fingers crossed that this pandemic will slow down by then. A few us did some scouting up there a couple weeks ago and people were social distancing, and stores and…[Read more]

I’m not sure if 225/45 will cause any rubbing issues. You might have to go to a 215/40 or 225/40.
I love my Nitto NeoGens. Hard to beat the value.

“Sharon and I plan to attend. What is the meet up location for Brunch? Will there be a caravan traveling to Joshua Tree or we just meet there?”
Jerry, I will touch base with Craig Williams (he is coordinating) and will post the brunch location in Joshua Tree. Looking at Yelp, it looks like our choices for brunch are going to be limited.

George Marsh commented on the post, 2020 MINI GP featured at L.A. Auto Show 1 year, 3 months ago
I agree, especially on the fender flares. Whatever airflow benefit they may provide, for me is not worth the hassle they’ll create when it comes time to washing/waxing. Not to mention every time I’d walk by the car and catch my clothes on a fender flare.
