Just a suggestion...why not meet earlier (as in 6am), and go for the gusto...drive the loop up the Fraser Canyon, photo op at Hell's Gate, hang a left at Duffy Lake Road, enjoy miles and miles of twisties, stop for a quick beer in Whistler Village, then down the Sea to Sky highway back to Vancouver? I've done the loop on sportbikes a few times...great ride...would be great in the 944's too...

Welcome Rosster! Should be a blast! Thanks Ian for suggesting this lake. I have a good feeling about GREAT photos. My dad is a photographer soooo I will make him bring some sweet gear to snap our cars.

I should be able to make that. I agree with Ian, though. Lets make it a drive, rather than just a photo op!
You guys should have come on the PCA drive out that way a month or so ago. Hope -> Spences Bridge, in to Merrit for lunch, then Princeton -> Hope and back home again. Lots of good driving out there (thanks Don! ).

Hey, Jerry Seinfeld is doing a routine in town that weekend too!! I'm sure he'd love to see us all together, afterall his first P-car was a 951!!!! I think he may also be in town early to come to our Whistler Weekend!
