Hey Guys,

Just got home from my Dads place & one of his mates was there with his son. He is 14, is 5'8 tall & weighs only 40kgs ( 88lbs ). He has a disease called Crones Disease. Anyway he is a mad car nut, all he talks about & anybody who has a car he likes he cons a ride out of them so he got a cruise in my car today & a few days ago some dude picked him up from school in a Porsche. He has just been granted through the Make-a-wish foundation a 10 day trip from here in Sydney to LA to go to the Hot Wheels factory & any other car stuff they can squeeze in. Thought some of you may know of some cool car stuff to do around LA in September ?

I thought about the NHRA museum. Any other ideas I can pass onto them would be appreciated ?

Thanks Guys
Scott

If he's around long enough, there's the Early Rodders Saturday cruise in in La Canada, just north of LA. If he want's a ride in my rag top, give me a holler, I'm sure we could get together.

... and if it wouldn't be too big of a let-down after riding in Lane's car, I could give the kid a ride around. Check the Petersen schedule before you go there; make sure it's something he's interested in.

Mark & Lane, Thank you both for that. I will find out how much stuff they have booked in & will let you know.
