Hmmm........
I just checked Tire Rack on a set of RE01R's and a set of Direzza Z1 Star Specs and compared to another tire place i have used that is located in canada, they are $150 more for the Dunlops and about $250 more for the Bridgestones. The Tire rack is more expensive than Talon Tire (just to clarify in case this was confusing).
The place is called Talon Tire and they are located in Quebec. I have bought 2 or 3 sets of tires through them before and they are good to deal with. They actually had a contingency program with our autocross club back in Edmonton. If anyone is interested in possibly doing a groupbuy through these guys let me know and i'll contact them regarding getting a better price from them. If no one is interested i think i'll buy through them anyway, as i've had good experiences with them and i'd rather give my money to a Canadian company than an American one; not to mention they support grassroots level motorsports here in Canada.
Their site isright here

Kevin is out of the country and I think that jonkou888 is coming but without a vehicle. RonMexico is skiing. ssthrd confirmed he would not be attending but is interested in the Tofino run. Never heard back from JetBlackS2000 and I PM'd him as well. I think that is going to be it.

Your not making fun of us are you Alex?
Looks like we have 10 registered island owners now. B18C5-Eg6 is in Calgary. I know of at least two other s2k's in Victoria alone.
If there are anymore island owners out there speak up so we can count you in.
See you guys tomorrow at 11:30.
