The Day started Off by Agreeing on meeting at Caltex between 8 and 9AM to be able to wait for Ramzy til he gets off his 8:30 morning class.
by the time i get there past 9pm, thinking i'm ultra late, Borat (Ramzy) B-Day Boy aint there yet, Garoy Bros (GAB) also call me asking if we left and i told em we'll wait for em.
All the Early Birds, Bertoo1960, Skillman & Family with the Van Loaded, Funk & family, Elmxtian & Family, Marvs and Bossing, Jowem and Kumander, Dbf744, zayote, LimEhcrA
Ulrich and Misunderstood do a Great job putting together the event by coordinating the guys and gals, printing out the car numbers and thinking/planning out the show, with huge input coming from everyone.
Ramzy (aka Borat) finally shows and we leave Caltex PNR around 9:20AM and some guys gas up at PNR and i make a dash for Petron BGH.
Skillman Leads the pack all the way to REaliza and waits for everyone there, while waiting for the Garoy bros at Petron green valley, i see Ramzy Blasting down Marcos to catch up.
We eventually get to Realiza and see everyone. Garoy Bros are doing some tuning so they bring both the Turbo Cars, MR2 and Eclips, by the time we get down, they split just around the Rosario/pugo area.
We take the usual route passing the collapsed Bridge and the Bumpy Potladen, Patched up Horrible Pangasinan Rd. (SiSon then Pozurrubio) via Mcarthur hwy going to the split where it takes you to Manaog.
I know Skillman is Jamming fast in his Van and we follow his Pace and we get there around 11am (i think)
We finally get in line and pretty Starve to Death till past 12 (Sacrifice for all you Sinners Out there
), and we get lucky as Misunderstood(Marvs and Ulrich) go and talk to the Priest and he decides to bless us as a group past lunchtime instead of 3pm - Great Hookup Peeps!!!
soon as we get blessed, everyone decides to Have Lunch at Matutina's in Bonuan, as we dont know how to get there, Jowem Leads the Pack and we get there a little past 2pm (i think
)
Everyone agrees on Ordering the # 1, 2, 3 Combo and Man!!! that was a Grip of Food, it more than Fed Everyone with tons of Leftovers (specially the Bangus) they served 2 kinds fo BBQ, Sinigang, Shrimp with ampalaya, Kare-Kare, Pinakbet (lemme know if i'm forgetting somethin) While Chowing down, we Get a Surprise Arrival by E-Kulit (Lloyd) with the New Gas Miser honda City (it does like 100kms to a Liter
he chows and everyone talks about what to do next from the Restaurant while we view the Beach just across.
After some yappin about what to do next, the Majority decide to Make the Surplus Parts run heading to San Carlos with encouragement from the Ladies (whe are already close by - about 50 clicks away, Might as well go all the way)
Jowem Leads the pack all the way to Putahan (I mean Putohan area in Calasiao) and i take em from there headed to San Carlos) we arrive just past 4pm and everyone gets digging, Ramzy brought some Gloves and we start checking out front cuts, peeps crowd around the Mitsubishi FTO (3000 GT VR-4 for you stateside peeps) its a V6 Twin Turbo All Wheel Drive, Complete with TEIN Type HA Front and rear coilovers, we open the Hood and See Goodies like an HKS Twin Intake, JDM Grounding Kit, Greddy Profec Boost Controller, just under the dash i see the ECU and whadda ya know (its a MINE's Tuned ECU)
the Integra DC2 was plain Nice, comes with a Fiber Hood, pins, HKS intake and Sun Grounding kit.
Ramzy starts digging around for the Recaro Seats and pull out the pair, we see the Oldschool Bride Seat (in REd) Man, talk about OldSchool - these are older than Eg6wannabe (Ed)
the Scooby Pair eventually get purchased outta the lot.
guys start looking at the Mufflers and Coilovers at the other end while the Ladies start taking pics around the lot, while some dudes spend some yappin time with Melvin (the owner slash partner of the business)
Its a Little past 6pm when we all decide to split and head for the road.
We get caught up in Harcore traffic from Calasiao (gotta Love that Puto, hehehehe
) where we stopover for Pasalubong and goodies plus the View.
then we get back into more crazy traffic all the way to Dagupan till we get out of Bonuan, its smooth sailing all the way from San Fabian to Rosario where everyone chills with a smoke and a drink.
Guess who we see at Caltex Rosario, Doc Luis and his Fully Pimped out Subaru STi with the blinging Pink rims and Carbon Fiber Bodywork and wing (this thing is Hella Fast and can back it up)
We decide to split just around 6:30pm, they tell me to go ahead, so i jam on it with Ramzy then Ulrich behind me, i hit Petron Green Valley around 6:55pm, Ramzy and Ulrich catch up around Convention and we go straight to Caltex PNR where the BAF peeps are doing Saturday Night Coffee.
It was a REALLY FUN run from Baguio - Manaog - Bonuan - San Carlos and Back through San Fabian and the Rush of Doing Marcos Hwy uphill.
What Made this Event Great is Spending Time with your Fellow BAF Forum Dude and Family and getting to do all the other Different stuff while you're out of Baguio (Change of Scenery)
See you guys on the Next Run!!!!
