I actually came here to make sure someone posted this. ahhhhhhh yeah! u actually coming this year Sam?????

[JonnyScorch]

damn 29th is soon.. but i got wheels and sway bars to pick up from down around there.. so i'll try to make it...

[Chigga 744SE]

yea, got nothing better to do.

[BoxDriver2]

Umm, how far would this be from windsor would you think?

Yahoo wasn't working for me tonight..

[Kasper]

mapquest says 3 hours 23 mins. 195 miles. I have a place in London (halfway between windsor and waterdown pretty much) u can stay at if u don't wanna drive back and forth in one day.

[BoxDriver2]

I don't think it would be a problem.

Generally my mom and I try and visit family thats over in Canada on the way to Ilderton [or on the way back]. So probably do that this time around.

I appreciate the offer. I'll see if i can get my other wagons trans stuff / aero kit primed in time..

[Chigga 744SE]

I would but I guess you'll be coming from the other way. I'll be coming from the 403.

[Chigga 744SE]

ok, want to meet at the best buy by 403 & QEW?

one around Brant St.?

[BoxDriver2]

Can someone mapquest this from 48009 [zip code].

Mapquest isn't loading properly and neither is yahoo maps? Is it just me?

thats actually a bit farther than i'd have to go on the 403. where r u coming from sam???

http://www.canadianvolvoclub.org/events.htm

if u look at the map on that page, i'm taking 403 to hwy 6, then the meet is just north of the 403. i've been there a bunch of times, i bought some tires from the guy running the meet. so, if u wanna meet at the best buy at brant street or whatever that's cool with me (but i've never been there).. or theres a tim's right off the ramp for hwy 6 if i recall correctly...
Let me know... PM me your phone number, or talk to me on msn whenever.

oh yeah, I think I might be driving with my friends dad from london (he has a sweet 1800), so i'll have to find out if and when he wants to go.

Meeting at the timmy's at 11:30. I'm spending the night in Hamilton on Saturday and can be there at a reasonably accurate time...

Sam (and anyone else of course...), you wanna meet up for breakfast somewhere? Pre-meet meet lol.

[edited to reflect the proper time as I got off my lazy ass and found the thread on VS]

[BoxDriver2]

At this point, if things don't change with the 91, i won't be going. Talk about a pain in the....

Transmission and shifter issues, yet again.

We'll see. But it is not looking to good, the parts are not coming in until friday, and i need to do some other work.

Have fun if i don't make it...will update later.
