the cruise:
I did this 2 yrs ago, I couldn't go last yr cause I was fairly sick.

show starts at 10AM, last time we were there around 1030-11AM.

so we'll meet up at a Plaza beside Royal Bank Canada HQ by 401 & Mississauga Rd. (Erin Mills Pkwy), the plaza itself is north of 401, its right off the exit, there's a Tim Hortons there.

me and a few people will be there around 9AM, the plan is to leave before 930AM, I'll be there having coffee and donuts.

Just a quick heads up, this convoy does 140 ish all the way so be warned. But man what a site to behold, 6-10 Volvos taking up all 3 lanes, passing everything on the road! Smile factor ++++:volvo:

I can't do 140, getrag's 5th gear + auto axle = 4000rpm at 140, more like 110 ish, gas is expensive now you know, 2yrs ago it was like 60 something cents, and I have to dodge potholes.

Man Sam what rear ratio do you have? I turn 3200 at 140 in my 7 with getrag.

Too bad the show is so far away for me :(

Make sure you get pics :)

I want to go to the event, but doubt I will due to other priorities.

Sam, if you still have the front end and radio pieces, let me know...
