Trip to DasilvaMotorsports this week

Anybody know if the Hanlon is still torn up? I was thinking of taking it down as far as 124 and then turning off at 32. Or I could just take highway 7 west to 32 and cross over 124...that might be better.

Edit: GPS says to turn off #6 at Marden and then catch 32 south. Makes sense. I've been that way before. See you folks tomorrow.

Greg, The DOT told me weeks ago that the Hanlon's only problem area was down around Laird so you should be ok to go down to 124. Follow 124 west to Wellington rd 32 south which will then take you over to Townline.

Have a look at this link and zoom in for details.

Good morning everyone. 7C at 7am here in Owen Sound; looks like a beautiful day for a drive. However, according to the Weather Network website, it is -1C and freezing fog in Guelph!! I hope they haven't got the salt trucks out!! The temp looks to be above freezing all the way to Fergus and then it dips.
 
And don't forget about those of us who sadly have to be with you spirit only! Wow, a cruise with a bunch of Corvettes, I'd be living my dream..........but this spring will still do me.

Cheers,

Garry

We know you're there in spirit Garry -- and of course your pride and joy is there for us to ogle and pet..........we'll give her a big hug for you and remind her that you miss her and still love her.
I may even get a few pics of us molesting her. :D

.......and here we go with pics of our visit. Saw Garry's Z ride and what a nice ride it is. (or was .. :D)
Only a few miles more on it but the tank is empty, the tires are bald and the engine is shot -- Figured it was ok since Manny was away and the keys were in it and Dave wasn't looking.........Thanks Garry -- the scratches will buff out no worries -- it'll be good as almost new in April.:rofl:

Anyway here's the pics -- The yellow Z06 is Garry's before the J-rides..:D

The early ones are at Timmiess where we all met had lunch and then cruised over to Manny's in Breslau. Nice to see Wayne, Brian, Tony & Kathy, Terry and our special guests for the day Greg (Case75) and Brad from Owen sound in Greg's '75 Silver coupe.

Hey Colin!

If you could only see my grin, I don't think I could be any more excited!

But for some reason I can only see the pictures on post #41. I can't see any of the earlier ones..........

By the way, since I don't know, who is who in the pictures?

Looks like the weather was great, lots of nice rides in the lot, you guys are so lucky!

Sure is a good thing I kept the fire, theft and vandalism insurance on the car eh!

I would if my insurance company would believe it used to have a fully forged 7 liter before someone walked off with it??!! I figure theymust owe me for letting me drive around all summer without valid insurance (but remember they said they would have covered me!!!!)

Cheers,

Garry
 
Damn - they're all showing for me, let me repost :

Collin; most of your pictures are not coming up....busted link.
But the ones outside at Manny's are showing...... those are the one we took right after trying out Garry's ride.
Nice car Garry...... I think Yellow might be faster than some of the other colours, but I did notice a little miss in her around 7000rpm ; But I'm sure Manny will get this straighten out in the tune.
What a great day....My car outside temp was reading 14 degrees on the way home. Just think, almost December and we are still getting in the odd cruise. Welcome to the Ontario Banana Belt...........

Still can't see them and still grinning like an idiot! Thanks for actually making a good day greater! I almost feel like I was there and hey Colin, no worries but would you at least fill it with 93 for me please?

Off for my son's parent-teacher interview!

I'll hope for viewable pictures when I return, no pressure Colin but would my son ever be happy to see the car.

Cheers,

Garry

Sorry guys. All the pictures are showing for me and I've done nothing different this time to upload to photobucket. It's a mystery. Tony says only some of the pics are showing at his comp -- Pity.

I'm on my way out for supper right now so can't go thru it all again right now but I'll re-upload the pics to photobucket again later and try again.

Nice to see everyone today.......

Colin.
