NorCal Toys 4 Tots Run Dec 18th, Toy Drive

Every year SRO magazine puts on a Toy Drive in Northern California. This will mark the 3rd year for our Hyundai club attending. The previous years the toy drive had been held at Aerogear (Bodykits) in Hayward, but this year it will be held at Weapon R in South San Francisco. SRO has always given us Hyundais great coverage and every year posts the event on their website.

Last year we had aprox 26 cars attend and out numbered the other car clubs! biggrin.gif This year I am hoping to double that. If you would like to attend please send me an email to katcook@gmail.com Once I get a count on who's going and everyone's locations we will be setting up meeting points for everyone.

Included in the festivities will be a DJ and raffle. You must donate a toy to be entered in the raffle. ALL toys must be new and unwrapped!

What: SRO Toys for Tots Charity Event
When: Sunday, December 18, 2005 Noon-4pm
Where: Weapon*R Headquarters, 180 Sylvester Rd, SSF, 94080

Honda E engine history (http://www.honda-wiki.org/wiki/Honda_E_engine)

We only had 6 cars this time, well 5 physically see below..... but still beat out the other car clubs. The toy run was very small this year in fact the smallest I have ever seen but this was due to the weather.

We had people telling us we shouldn't go that the roads were a mess and that there were storm warnings and tornado watches. But the truth is it really wasn't that bad! It rained on and off and couple of times pretty heavy but we all made it just fine! We spent most of the time inside of Weapon Rs wherehouse.

The only bad thing that came out of this was Carrie, one of our members that had come all the way from Fort Bragg missed most of the meet. Right before we met up with her in SF she went through a very large puddle of water at Ihop and her car wouldn't start. So we left her car there hoping it would dry out later. About an hour she went back and it still would not start. Carrie ended up staying at Ihop the rest of the time waiting for a tow truck. They tried everything and could not get the engine to kick over. We just hope her engine didn't mess up. Carrie did win a Weapon R sweatshirt lol! A few of us also won some goodies!

Sorry to hear that the weather did not coperate and that Carrie had car troubles. Hopefully the next one will be bigger and better weather.
