Exotics cruise ---WHAT A BLAST---
Awesome cruise except for Mr. OPP who was a little discriminating. It was clearly a black P-car thing!!
Great turnout too bad everyone couldn't make it.
Sorry, won't let me paste pics

I saw this on Fchat, so the cop ignores the bright red & yellow cars...although, I found another picture maybe why he pulled over a bunch of black porsches...
Email me any pictures you have and I'll put them up. brad.copping@gmail.com

Thanks for including the pics.
I couldn't download them either last night, so I sent mine to organizer - guess they are now posted somewhere else.
That's 2 of us there in the blue and red shirts - 2 black 930's SHEMM and SHEMMER plates. The other is a Carrera Cab and Twin Turbo - we met on the cruise.
A yellow Ferrari 360, as I heard, was trying to keep up to 1 or 2 of these Turbos getting onto the QEW past Grimsby (no names will be mentioned). An old man in a silver volvo called the OPP and they were waiting for us. He walked onto the QEW to stop traffic and picked us all off one at a time - he admitted later he missed the "yellow" car - hard to miss! Traffic was jammed on the QEW for about 1/2 hour while he checked us out and gave us a lecture about racing......yeah, a bunch of old guys with kids in the car racing!
The younger guy in the Twin with the blonde came out arguing with the Cop, while the rest of us older guys kept quiet (experience! - arguing with the ref never lessens the penalty). The cop implied that he was going to be charged with racing - he got a ticket and was told to go back to his car. The OPP yelled at the 3 of us for a few minutes about the perils of racing and told us to go on our way. The next stop was the winery/restaurant. 3 of the 4 of us showed up. The Twin and blonde didn't....so we thought the flatbed took them to the compound. They eventualy showed up after lunch as they thought the time for lunch had expired and ran the next leg of the cruise. Not seeing anyone at the next checkpoint, they came back to the restaurant. He only got a ticket for improper paperwork (photocopied ownership issue).
Lots of excitement! - the best part, no iceman - not staring at the blonde's legs-although that was a bonus, was the look on people's faces as they cruised by us at 2 km/hr...4 big-assed black Porsches and a blonde in a mini-skirt nailed by the OPP for racing! - not!
Anyone know why can't I download pictures? - the rules say I can, but when I try - nothing happens.

Sounds like the cruise was a blast, minus the OPP incident.
heaven forbid a bunch of high end cars should be able to cruise toghether without racing....i think police think that this is some kind of scientific impossibility.
