A word of warning to those attending Autofest in Oshawa this year !!

dualquadpete · BLACKSTOCK, ONT

won't affect me as I've never been to that show & don't intend to go!! Too expensive if your only going to go for the Sun. part?? Guess I'm "CHEAP" but i'll never pay $30 bucks to show my car for 1 day!!! Doo Wop in W.V is $25 & it's a 4 day show!!! + the holiday while there!!!

too shiney for the drag strip. might get dirty

With over 35000 KM on it, it's been through it's share of dirty roads, so a drag strip is the least of my worries !! I'll tell you what, If I know you'll be at the strip I'll take you on and we'll do a bit of heads up racing. None of this fake arm drop crap, but some good bracket racing to bring back some old memories.

It's been a few years since I've spanked someone on the track and it would be nice to do it again !! LOL biggrin biggrin biggrin

BTW; having your car in Auto trader doesn't count !!

Gazoo · BADEN, ONT

I know I can't wait to see that Mopar up close. Maybe I can talk you into parking it in the arena for the weekend at Moparfest.
It's obviously deserving. I'm planning to attend the Oshawa show, hope to see it there, if not before.
And I'll get a T shirt there, since I'm not going to Barry.

oldkoot · BROCKVILLE, ONT

Hey Dan,
Sure hope with all those miles it can still make it to Syracuse biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin

atomsplitter · NEWCASTLE, ONT

I see the 50's GMC but there seems to be a reddish smudge at the upper right corner of the ad. Can't figure out what that was, just figured it was a mistake!

hemi43 · ONTARIO

I think I should have worn 2 flak jackets !!

DaveM · ONTARIO

We celebrated earth day today by spending 4 hours cruising around in that reddish smudge. Using some of mother natures fossil fuel to put smiles on our faces and wearing the nubs off of the new rubber. Wrung the winter cobwebs out of it, had lunch, saw some new race cars. I think it will make it to Syracuse again just fine. What did you all do today? wink

Haven't had to use that 4 letter word for a decade now, actually spent the day like yourselves out cruising around. Found out the Ultramar sells real gas, no ethanol in premium, with no Shell stations down here was good to know.
