SpudNation II Oct 12 Final Details

[koncise]

Spud, just to be sure, is this the place you're saying we should be? That's what mapquest is coming up with.. but I wanted to confirm.

[KennyTheGreat]

I just got home from a 425km trip

should i come tomorrow?!??!

[ChrisTO]

i'm planning to be at hwy48 and hwy 7 at 11. depending on whose there, leave shortly there after and head on up to Mt. Albert which is around hwy 48 and hwy 31 and wait for the Bimmer train to pass on by.

your map looks about right. there is a Petro Canada gas station in the NE corner of the intersection.

and i even washed and dressed the tires today too! hopefully the weather doesn't make it a complete mess.

Ok, I plan to be at the gas station just before 11. So hopefully I'll see you there.

[SpudBoy]

Kenny/Terry: YOU MISSED IT DUDES!

To all members that were in attendance: Thanks

I think the cruise was a complete success...

Total distance traveled by Spud: 322.2 km (KK back to my own GarageMahal).

Pumpkins harmed in the making of SpudNation II: 0.00

Bad moments: 0.00

Smiles: Too many to count!

Police encounters: 0.00
Police sightings: 3.00

Food: Not bad considering we had a large group with no reservation.

...aside... IMHO "best cruise I've ever been aboard".

Attendees: Please post your thoughts on todays cruise and note the things you liked AND your suggestions on how to make these private meets/cruises even better.

My suggestion: Nametags (first name and username@maX).
My other suggestion: Ryan's car looked cool with the race number on the rear passanger window. Should we number the cruise cars or would that be cheesy?

post your opinions (keep in mind I'm a sensitive guy)

I, personally, had a blast




thanks again for coming,

Graham (A.K.A. Spudboy - '99 M coupe Imola red/Imola red)

Thank you, Excellent cruize! Also, name tags would be helpful. By the way, whatever happen to the shopping section of the cruize? heheh

It was a good turn out. We had amazing luck with green lights. The only screw ups involved the people that came with me.... E46_lover decided to go shopping literally 2 mins before we departed KK. I received a desperate phone call just before entering the 401... Grasshopper was standing in the KK parking lot alone! Went back and picked him up in my friend's Miata. Drove like an idiot with 3 people in the car trying to catch up to the cruise. At the first stop at Kirkfield Locks, my friend locks his Miata keys in the trunk. We leave the car there and get a ride back with Slowered/Ambash... thanks again guys! Now I have to drive ALL THE WAY BACK THERE AGAIN tomorrow morning with the spare key to open the trunk.

suggestions?.... maybe next year we can stop at that Go-Kart place and do some hot-laps to release traffic frustration? Different restaurant? shorter/more frequent stops? More camera cars to get action from front and back of the line.

Good work Graham!

Just got in myself a few mins ago. the cruise was a whole lot of fun, and a great success! Everyone behaved perfectly, it was unbelievable!
I still wish there was a quiet road to race eachother on, or do some flyby's for the camera...myabe next time right?

Jeff: openwheel's GF had a quick look around Fenlon Falls. I shopped for rye with Mystikal

mission objective: COMPLETE

Who was that young guy in the red e46 328i (that ride looked sweet)??? What's his username@ maX???
