I'd recommend an oil cooler if you're going to push? Do it early to beat the heat and be careful of the critters. I took some out the last time up there. Lol

We are planning a run up their if there's enough interest? but not a whole caravan since it's nicer to be in a smaller group, less hassle of keep everyone together.

Ojai Cruise

So I noticed there's a 19 row and a 25 row cooler. Would the 19 be more than enough for me (normal driving, a little fun sometimes, possible the rare track appearance in the future) or should I get the 25 row? Would that be overkill and wasted money for me?

I'm running a 34 and I'm pretty happy since I do a lot of Canyon runs.
But for a once in a big while cruise? a 25 should be fine.

Cool, thanks. I'll get the 25. I'll wait until after I go on vacation in October and my wallet is thinner to see if I still have the mod bug for performance mods. I think a good canyon run stock would give me a good feel for whether or not I really do need any performance mods also.

BTW, are there normally a lot of cops up in Angeles Crest or did they just follow you guys up there because they saw a big line of sports cars headed that way?

Yes and especially on the weekend

So be careful

Damn, Angeles Crest is really close to me. Was hoping it could be a nice little driving getaway. ojai is almost 2 hours away, haha.

Police activity should die down in a few months. If it's really close to you I suggest weekday mornings or weekdays after 8pm. I've been running Angeles Crest for close to 8 years now and haven't gotten a ticket once *knock on wood* but some recent tragic events have really heightened CHP activity.

Also, it helps if you don't give them an excuse to pull you over and you stay within 5 mph of the speed limit which is at times 55 mph.
