You'll leave at like 2am anyway, so it doesn't really matter. :laugh:
I'll have a sleeping bag and air mattress just in case.
Lots of bodies on the floor at Darins, like a teenage birthday party...but we're drunk.

We have an official NorCal/LA/OC Caravan that leaves LA around noon on that Friday. The NorCal crew (if there any this year although elguappo and Yar promised to come this year) leaves the Bay Area at O'Dark Thirty that morning and typically make it here to the LA area around 11-11:30am. I meet them and host a quick lunch at the hangar (in Pacoima just down the road from you) then we all head southeast on the 210 to make the Inland track to San Diego. We sometimes pick up folks along the way. I'll make an official thread for it again sometime in the next month or two.
Drop me a PM with you contact info and I'll stay in touch.
Does anyone drive down from further north? Seattle or Portland? It would be more fun to meet up than driving solo for three days.

I am planning on making this my first e28 related meet. In fact, this will be my first auto related meet, period. I only know one person in this crowd (Chris K) so I am a bit leery.

My question: I asked my wife, Bobbie, if she wanted to come (after all, we live in Tucson, so any chance to go to SD is more that welcome).

She replied: "Why would I want to hang out with you geeks for two days".

We're talking San Diego here. Sandyeggo may be the world's best place to visit. But, still, a very fair question.

So, Do you guys bring your wives? Is there something going on for non e28buttheads? Will there be other ladies there that will go shopping/sightseeing and thus happily discuss what dickheads I/we/us really are?

I'm going regardless. Whether I share a room with my wife at the 4 Points San Diego or with a e28butthead friend will probably be determined by the end of this thread.

My wife came with me last year and will this year, but there are very few, maybe 3-5? Maybe a couple more, but not many. And she pretty much just hung out in the hotel room or the car. The fairer sex population might have peaked at the Mission Bay parking lot.

If she's a delicate flower that doesnt like a bunch of dudes drinking, kicking tires and talking shit to each other, then leave her.
If she can hang out and dish it out, then by all means bring her.
We always like the 'cool chicks' who can hang and not be offended.

I imagine she could find plenty to do in San Diego. Easy for me to say though. Every time I go to San Diego, I just end up at Darin's.

My wife came in 2015. She enjoyed meeting everyone and enjoyed the actual "car show" on Saturday (ha!), but very quickly grew tired of the sausage-and-gearhead-fest. She choose not to go last year. I suspect she will come again this year, but will only make a brief appearance to the rest of you all.

There's a reason one of the wives who showed up last year calls this "Sausagefest"...

There was one year a few wives and female friends showed up and I engaged them in a spirited discussion of the healthcare delivery system...
