Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone was arranging or planning on having a drive/ event similar to the one we had done last year around this time.

I don't know what everyone's schedule is like, but I've been popping in more frequently to see if anything has been posted regarding an event, and so far, nothing :(

So what does everyone one think given as great as the weather has been, its not looking like its gonna last much longer...

Just a thought...

Regards,

Ahmad

The highwood pass loop that all the ferrari and porsche guys did last weekend is fun. Anyone want to do it this Sunday?

I would be up for a spin if I have a drivable car. You realize this weekend is Thanksgiving, might be why there's not much response. The weekend after next might work better for a lot of people??

As with everything, I'd go if the time suits. This weekend is completely out the window.

I've also been watching for a get-together (and I'd love to get the turbo out for a good spin), but this weekend is crappy for me too. Need to address some issues on the car, and I only have 1 day off, and I guess I should study for my final on Wednesday!
I'd be in if we can postpone, otherwise next time!

Well I'm flying solo for most of the weekend, so if anyone is up for it, I'm game. Next weekend...well that's a whole week away!

So here's what I'm thinking- leave 10am from south end up town, head south to Longview, up to hwy 1 to Canmore, grab some lunch, then head back in the 1A.

Me, Ahmad, porvolvo...

I might be able to swing it Sunday, depending on some circumstances that may be out of my control. Athal, you have an email that will explain things a little better... :wink:

So we go from having no plans as of Tuesday when I started this post to, we're going this Sunday...

Unfortunately I didn't think it would take off this quick, I was thinking either 16th, 23rd, or 30th.

Again with this being the long weekend, wife's got a tonne of stuff planned, and I would love to get away, but I don't get my Volvo back (currently in the paint shop) till after this long weekend (the 11th I hope, if nothing else comes up). It would look a littler awkward with two Volvos and Nissan Altima (rental), just cruising around...

I had hoped to get the ball rolling for mid to end of the month with time for us to plan it out and to give enough time for everyone to set the time aside in their schedules...

So I can't make this weekend, as stated above, but will gladly participate in anything later on in the month, as long as its on the weekend, and weather is cooperative...

If it's anything like last year, I'll definitely come down for another run with a few weeks notice. :) Can't do the 30th though. I doubt any of the Edmonton guys will come out, but I'll try!

Well it's probably good we're not going to do the highwood pass tomorrow. IF it's even open, it sure looks like there would be a bunch of snow up there!

So any plans on getting a group together for either this weekend or next weekend. Its getting colder and its only a matter of time till we see snow...

My vote would be for the 23rd, but I am open to suggestions...
