I could be up for something Saturday afternoon. Lets try and figure something out today, since I'm not at work tomorrow I won't be able to look at this site.

I'll get the ball rolling here, so lets say 1pm Saturday afternoon (we can get a bite to eat) at the Kelseys in South Keys.

Lets take it from here and decided what works for everybody.

Hey!

Made it back OK.

It was nice to hook up with you guys. I don't remember everybody's name so maybe one of you could remind me how does the Solo1!!!

I'd like to ask him a few questions.

BTW I'll be putting a few pic of the car Lisa bought today. We got an excelent service at that dealer. Put it this way they are going to deliver the car on a flatbed sometime this week... Yes you are right, from Ottawa to Trenton. All this with a smile.

http://www.lks.net/~ghislisa/Event.htm

You guys keep on watching this Forum for a formal invitation...

Ghislain.

We could probably have one in April similar to the one we had this weekend. But once May roles around and if you guy want to we can meet at my place. With the new house I'll have the room to accomadate quite a few cars (2 in the garage and six in the driveway). It would be a little more cozy and if any of you have any work to do...

No pics, turnout was great.. everyone was there but you [Linked Image]

hehe, no probs, spring hasn't sprung yet, we'll have more meets [Linked Image]

How about this, theres usually at least 4 of us at the auto-x's every sunday through the summer, we can use that as a starting point for a meet.

I'm actually gonna do a bit more auto-xing this year [Linked Image]

I dunno how you were counting Jay, we need more DSM's coming out to the summer
autocrosses!

BTW, we are indeed looking for a new lot. If anyone knows of a large, smooth, obstacle free
lot in the Ottawa area, let me know. I can post here to let you guys know where we will
be this summer.

BTW, Ghislain, I don't know any DSMer in Ottawa who does SOLO I, but I am interested
in trying it out this year. I think the school will be held April 28/29 at SMP.

Allan... Mmmm, Brown leather jaket???

I think Jay or Kevin mentionned that one of the Black 2G was/has/is doing it.

I'd like to get a little more info about it. Was at the soloontario.com site but could not find any info as if it is mandatory to take the training (for newbies) in order to run one or two events.

I'd also like to know if you can just pop in the morning of the event and regester on the spot.

Would be fun to try it, live the experience once.

I'll keep watchin for the Ottawa/meet solo2. Make sure you guys post it on this board I could pop up for a day.

BTW that could be an other topic...

Ghislain, sorry - black felt jacket (I was asking about Shanonville and helmets at the
end there)

Jay - thought you were counting last year. Me and Joe were the only ones actually running.
Fun runs don't count!

I'll post our SOLO II schedule and location when we've got everything worked out.

I got a bad memory. Can't put a face on you Allan. But that is ok. I remember somebody (you) asking about the helmet.

Again it is not mandatory. I'll probably buy one for this year. Lisa does not like the idea of me going on the track with nothing protecting my old forgetfull melon. LOL

I'll start a new topic requesting some info about solo1.

Keep me in touch with the Ottawa meet/solo2. That could be interesting.

I recruited another guy the other day, don't know if he'll bite though (drives a black 98 TSi AWD).. He was with his friends and playing macho, when I gave him my card he kinda smirked..
