I just got my car back after 7 long months in the shop so I am itching for a ride. I will be there.

I believe I've sent the map to everyone who's requested it by email. If you pm'd me with an email address and haven't received the map, I apologize - I've sent it out to probably some 20 people, and I might have missed someone. Please pm me again.

So in short:
Oct. 23 open to all marques
Oct. 30 Porsches only
Start time 10am
Start point - well, there seems to be some confusion about that which we need to sort out.

I'll send out another email to everyone sometime this week with final confirmations.

Is anyone available to pre-drive the route? I won't have a chance, and there's always the potential of construction zones and road closures.

Based on Christien's maps it looks great.

104 km – about 2 hours 37 mins
The Niagara area should look great this time of the year with the change of colours.

I'm gonna mention to the Ferrari, Lambo, Lotus, Maserati guys about the 23rd. Should be a great turnout.

I'll ask my Stoney Creek buddy to check it out and if not I will try to pre-drive it if I get a chance.

With the other groups involved, this can get out of hand really fast.

That's why we've got the 30th for Porsches only.

You don't like Italians(cars) and Cameros???

If the Italian Cars come please be sure to book a few flat bed tow trucks to clean up the brake downs.....hehehehe.....

I got someone to pre-drive the route this weekend.

End Point/Late lunch will be somewhere at Niagara-on-the-Lake.
Place will be mentioned on day of drive.

Please note that there is a Marathon in downtown Niagara Falls.
The drive route goes nowhere near as we will be up at Niagara-on-the-Lake.

Probably a good idea to delete that map from this thread. Last thing you want are visitors or any unwelcomed attention.

Well looking at how things are shaping up looks like im gonna be out. Not interested in a multi marque drive or one with a posted route on the internet.

Have fun guys and play safe.

Trust me I tried to delete it much earlier but was getting errors.

To each their own.

FYI: The Skyway and QEW (Niagara direction) in the area of Centennial Parkway is closed from 6:00AM until 10:00AM on Sunday for *another* police homicide investigation. You'll be using the side road to bypass this area. (expect to blow at least 30 minutes getting by this section at minimum.) I'm out for the 23rd - might try the 30th instead.
