***NEW INFORMATION AS OF 3/9/10***

CUSTOMS 2 CLASSICS CAR SHOW + Mountain Run! Prescott Valley, AZ to Jerome, AZ

This is the new ELEMENT added to this event. My friends at EMBRY RIDDLE AERONAUTICAL UNIVERSITY in Prescott, AZ are holding their 2nd annual car show the same day as our run. It is the CUSTOMS 2 CLASSICS 2010 car show, and they have been kind enough to invite all those that have planned on going on the run to attend the show as participants or spectators.

There will be plenty of food, family fun & entertainment, & a good # of cars to drool over. The folks at ERAU are expecting a turnout of 100+ participants for the show.

Our original plans for the MOUNTAIN RUN will essentially remain the same. The only thing that will change is the rally point & departure time!!!

Here's the run down for the MOUNTAIN RUN. I have this nice set of twisties right in my back yard here in Prescott Valley, Arizona. It is Arizona highway 89-A that takes you from the edge of Prescott Valley on into the history laden town of Jerome, Arizona. It's a huge tourist destination, with lots of sights to see, shops, & restaurants that are all well worth the visit.

Here is a link for more information on the town of Jerome:

I've driven this stretch of road several times since I've lived here in Arizona and it's tons of fun. The views through the mountains & valleys are spectacular, so bring a friend to sit in the passengers seat to take lots of pics or video...if their stomach can bear it! Those who tag along on this trip will definitely be hanging on to the "oh $#1*" handle!!! The road up to Jerome can be both relaxing & exhilirating depending on what type of driving mood you are in that day.

Here's a short Youtube video of a Ferrari & Porsche playing cat & mouse on 89-A on the way up to Jerome...

So this is how it will play out...

-Saturday from approx 10am-3pm will be spent at ERAU's car show.

-approx 3pm we will start packing up & prepping for the MOUNTAIN RUN.

-once we get to the top of the mountain, we can spend the afternoon hours taking in the sights, smells, & sounds of the old town of Jerome.

-then the rest of the afternoon can be spent either driving to our respective homes or you guys could stick around so we can show you the town of Prescott & the infamous WHISKEY ROW...but that's a whole other discussion!!!

Let me know what you guys think!!!

TENTATIVE DATE SET:

APRIL 10TH, 2010(Saturday)

This is the weekend following Easter Sunday...

Yeah that stretch of road is just west of Jerome. Some of the best twisties I've seen, makes for the ride of a lifetime if there is no traffic through the mountains. Jerome is an awesome town, a lot of history there. Met some cool people that have some good stories to tell. I'd love to take my daily on the trip, count me in. Driving the road with the G/F in her 4dr Civic just doesn't work too well.

Awesome man! Lookin forward to seeing you there!...SPREAD THE WORD! :cool:

The 91, the 94 would get me in too much trouble.;)

The 91, the 94 would get me in too much trouble.;)

Cool, I'm guessing one has more mods than the other...

so is the mountain run still going to be going on also is this just for nissans or just anyone who wants to cruise their cars?

Cool, I'm guessing one has more mods than the other...

The 91 is fully bolted, so is the 94... the big difference is the N1ed VE in the 94. Took out AC, she's going on a diet. No sunroof when I bought her new so I'm ahead of the game. Trying to get her to 2300 w/full interior. List of mods on the 94 way longer than the 91 by far and growing.....:D
