Anyone interested in going to St. Thomas on the 25th of May for some fun???
The Toronto F-Body Club will also be there, not sure if we will be welcome, but I'm ready to go there and show them what we can do.
If we decide to go, we can meet at Mavis & Britania, and go all together from there.

Hey Erickson,
8 am sounds good to me. Mavis & Brittania, or Hwy 10 & Brittania, is good for me they are only 3 minutes away from each other.
Let's say Hwy 10 & Brittania at 8 am, that way I will get an Ice Cap. at Timmies.
Remind me to bring the shifter Kit.

Thanks! Hmmm, camping this weekend too... I didn't realize that there was an event this weekend. That is an idea, is anyone doing that?

Man..today was a real hoot! DSMs were well represented by 9 cars. Fastest DSM today hit a 12.6 if i remember correctly. Most of us got our personal bests (i'll let them do the honours of breaking the news). I got 14.630@92.24MPH out of my Stock 91 with only an K&N and MBC set to 15psi. and with a slipping clutch (60' only 2.063secs). Beat an all-motor CRX (which ran a 12.4later and blew up his engine), a 80's Camero. Only race i lost was to a friendly DSM (first run of the day). Also beat a certain DSMer with a 16G and other mods...(sorry Dave, Can't resist...opps did I just say his name out loud? ) Best/funniest thing that happened today was, a C4 corvette decided to call it quits after only 2 runs...both lined up against DSMs. First race, Albert (13.6sec not his best time of the day) smoked it and the next run another 1G (forgot his name) smoked it. This was just after the C4 Driver commented that Albert's stutterbox sounds like a gopher. Great day, nice and cold for the car and the rain held up for us to make a few very memorable runs.

What a great day we all had at St. Thomas today. Everybody had a good time and great runs. Weather was a little chilli, but we survived. Best race of the day was me against Eric, we were neck to neck to the end of the 1/4 mile, with the winner only being 0.135 ahead of the other, awesome race Eric I had my best race today, I did 14.098 1//4 mile @ 94.32MPH.
