There's a lawyer in Mississauga that was able to get it licenced for the road. First road legal one in Canada IIRC. Don't know how exactly, but he was able to. I bet that's his.

Yeah it was I who got him to come out to our Saturday GTG. He was a really nice guy until he tried to bill me $9k for sitting in and LISTENING to my Insurance company at my house. He was doing that as a friend until he heard some numbers and his lawyerness took over. Two months later, bill

Apparently the loophole he exploited was bringing the car up in pieces as (I think) replacement parts for a kit car. I know he brought it in as pieces though. His had the CarbonFibre kit, I didn't see this one up close.

That would be me in a 2007 Z06 Mosport1,,, you almost killed some people passing into oncoming traffic,,, there were a hundred cars in front and this was no race.
What is there to prove by passing anyone in that situation?,,,NONE...
There were several cars from this forum driving like idiots.
The police were already following us in a blacked out Yukon.
The kid in the grey Dodge intrepid was so close to being on the news it WASN'T funny,, I had a word with him at the next stop. I wish I would have seen you in Wasaga.
Events like these are put on by people who put a lot of time and effort into them. Why should a small few ruin it for everyone.
As said in the drivers meeting this in NOT A RACE.
It's the small percentage of guys like you that create the headlines and make
all of us look bad.
Events like these are in the public eye and we don't need any bad PR.
I particpate in many similar events and driving like that is not tollerated in any way.
You want to go fast come out to Mosport this week,, I'll be there Monday and Friday,,,,

I look forward to meeting.
Then you can F me up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its a public road... you dont like people passing you, eat it

Its not a Race thats obvious and its not your Fathers road ither

and there was no one in front of you... you were holding everyone back including Locals

if your scared of the Police dont come to Events like this. You are dumb obviously the police would know about it. its 70 cars no wonder it was called in, Blocking a whole road just so you can park and take pix, Stupid to start with

The kid in the Dodge was the Mid Leader he was shooting for Charles, you were spoiling his shots...

I make Headlines, regard less. and i make everyone look good

If you cant tolerate it dont come next time, no one got pulled over no one got a ticket. we had a police escort to start with.

Next time you show a finger, think again.

I dint kill anyone so stop crying, eveyone was passing

If you think we are idiots why are you even posting here, obviously you one too

besdies you were ruining eveyones fun

and trust me im not the only one talking about you, there was a bunch of guys asking who the Finger Showing Vette guy was, everyone wanted to show you one of their own finger, including my girl, its good you backed out earlier

You go to Mosport and go in Circles, ill be in Sunny Florida

I suggest we move on. That post you've replied to is ironically self-explanatory.

I enjoyed the drive, notwithstanding those few limited moments of unnecessary drama. The turnout was really impressive. The guy I met last Friday who brought his Ariel Atom had a great time too. That car is unreal.

A good friend of mine drove my 997C2S. It was his first time driving a 911, and he's still grinning from ear to ear.

We couldn't have asked for better weather.

He told me there's 1 other in Ontario that's plated (and it's in London). He told me a bit about the process, and it was by no means simple or easy.

It's an incredible car, and very unique. When we drove to the meet on Saturday morning, we were stuck in traffic on the 401. They took off their helmets but when we started up again, the freshly paved lanes were the source of all kinds of pebbles. They were getting blasted, so they had to pull over.

But I say that's a small price to pay for getting do drive/ride in that!

Agreed.

It was a great turnout, TONS of awesome cars, and yeah that Ariel must be a blast to drive, especially around a track! the guy said it weighed only 500 kgs, excellent power to weight ratio!
