Yeah.  I think he should let me do a lap.  And he will realize how awesome it is.

Yep! I'll have my car, but I don't think I'll be bringing my track tires, too much to haul & install for a short time. Really need wear out those slicks & then just get RE-11's on my track wheels

They'll be next to the tire fire apparently.

I'd love to make it but have family coming to visit.

I'll be hard to find but easy to identity.  Luls.   Everyone knows me pretty much.

I'll be bringing ISF has number 37 on it.  Hang out weirdly beside it someone will say hi eventually.

Also what time is everyone going?  Why not make a time slot to meet and I'll find a good location and post it here.

I'll be there from 9-4 so..

I'll aim to be there around 10ish I guess. I didn't realize it's 1h20mins away. Balls.  No biggie - Mazda is at 5,999km now though :P

I'll likely be the only douche wearing a bright orange North Face jacket. Even the colour blind would recognize me.

Don't forget to stop at the Calabogie Brewery.  And I recommend taking the 511 to Wolf Grove Rd. at least once. Super fun drive.

I'm confused about the route... I'd be taking the 417 to March Rd, which becomes Wolf Grove after Almonte.  The road looks straight as can be. What's fun about it??

Edit: you mean 511 is a fun road, as an alternate route to taking 508.  I see.  Sure - only adds 10 mins.

l'll try to park next to Wing's ISF with my 944 & it looks like I'm in the the 1st group of instructors, so that means 10-11am, then again at 12-1pm, etc. I know Angry Chicken & Norman are in the 2nd group.

March Rd is a bit dull but it gets better as you get close to the 511.

It looks like if you need to find me I'll be inside a Calabogie Mustang.  Not sure if I get a break lol, may be in there all day.  I think I get a lunch break when the mustang and corvette club run.

Looks like 12:30 -1 o'clock will be a good time.

Lots of free time EARLY if you want everyone to get together.  We should all be there at 9 and the first cars don't hit the track until 10.

Probably going to be tough for everyone to be in a circle at once, but sporadically here and there it will be fine.  Lots of time to chat I always seem to find some.
