Default Drive this weekend

NOTE: US guys might join us if we meet in Watertown, which might not give us the most ideal routes and might get us an extra hour away from the twisties. But then we get more ppl and dinner someplace with them.

Thanks for the offer, but I think we are going to decline this one.

I REALLY want to set up a spring or summer drive up in the Adirondacks so we can all get together! We spoke about it this year, but this summer just flew by. I want to be able to promote the hell out of it and make it a major activity so the Rochester, Southern Tier and Albany area guys can all make it out.

For this weekend it looks like Sunday is going to be the best weather, and I have 2 other cars beside myself. Again, James, thanks for the offer, but we are going to do something local. I'm also attracted to this idea because I'm not sure how my hand will hold up for such a long drive, it is still swollen...

Hope this helps, check out the website after the 18th to get an update

Week of Oct. 13-19, 2004

Looks like it's just us Ottawa guys in then. I am going to ask my uncle if he wants to join us in bringing down his NSX.

Steve what else where you going to do this weekend? You didn't sound too convinced that you wanted to come.

You know how much I hate driving the S2000. It has no torque for canyon carving, has uncontrollable oversteer and on top of that eats tires like crazy. Not to mention it sucks in the rain.



Geez, of course I'm coming. I just drove home on the Queensway with the top down. Thought people know me enough so I could leave out the

ok then... weather still looks good for Saturday

I have to be back in Ottawa by 8-9pm ish, if that's a concern for anyone.

Should we all meet at my place (like last time) on Saturday morning, nice and early?

oh, and steve, you are using my wheels and tires right? Do you want to put those on beforehand?

When are we leaving? I am awaiting a delivery friday night at 10pm. If it doesn't show they won't be there until 9am or so. So I might not be able to meet up

I might be able to meet up with you guys though if you will be stopping.
