Hey guys, I am currently living on the east coast, but plan on relocating to Vancouver by December, just thougt I would say hi, and maybe join you guys sometime on a run. I am also excited about DE and Track events at Mission. There are no real tracks where I live (NB) the closest id shubenacadie in NS near Halifax, but it is a small track. Kevin.

Do any of you guys drive your cars year round in Vancity? Or do you put them away? Are they many days that you can't drive them, ie snow? The rain and the cold wouldn't bother me if I did, it would just be the salt and gravel? Do you see much of that over the course of winter there? This is my only car, I don't want to take the bus ALL winter! hehe!

For all those that came out this am, thanks, I had an excellent drive with you guys , I hope you did too.
it was nice to put faces to names and see some great looking cars. it was kinda cool to look in my mirror while on some of those long turns and see all those 9xx's they sure look sweet in motion.
lets hope it's a short winter so we can do it all again.
Cheers
Lance

Sure was a great time this morning on that run up to Whistler - sorry I had to bail at Squamish.

Travis is going to post the photos he took on Rennlist Gallery - so keep in touch.

Thanks to Bob B of PCA-CWR for organizing everything. Looked like there were 45+ P-cars this morning, and I agree with Lance that the scenery in the mirrors was awesome. Oh, so was the Howe Sound.

K27, I just sent you a private email for a future 944/951 drive. Possibly sooner rather than later.

Yeah, that was a great run! I don't think there were the 47 cars that showed up last time but it must have been close.

Our 944/968 run up to Duffy Lake was a lot of fun, too. That's a fantastic road and even better at the pace that we hit it at <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />

I'm not sure I can wait until next April before doing that again.

I feel so left out

I moved from Vancouver not to long ago for Montreal! Kind of weird… When I was on the internet in Van, I was always finding people to chat with who lived in MTL… Now that I’m in MTL, all the Vancouverites are online!!

*Sigh* Good times. <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" />

I wonder if I can check a car on an airplane? <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" />

You may have tough time getting past security with that, but if you time your visit right you can ride along with me.
