So Radguy showed the rest ....fell off. To summarize rain the first day great skid pad fun was had. Day 2 Radguy showed up the weather was primo and even more fun was had. Devon Powell showed up to deliver a Z06 race car recently aquired by Richard, one of the partners in Calabogie. Car is fast everyone is happy.

Point is, if you want to do a Corvette group thing again, pm me or email at qwikredline@hotmail.com or pm 1badrisk and put this date on your calendar: September 10,11.

as far as Calabogie is concerned as a destination? Have someone bring your truck and trailer up for you Greg, as the drive up from Actinolite off 7 up the Flinton road and over to 41 and centenial lake road are as good a driving adventure with a Corvette as 323 used to be from Montebello to Mt. Trembant. These roads are a blast!

Calabogie as a race track; excellent surface, smooth as glass, technically very challenging, good mid range speed, track and hard but not impossible to wreck your car.

for infrastructure, the facilities are 5 star resort. Full garage tire changing capability available. Nicer washrooms than the Toronto Hilton and less chance of meeting a ....never mind...

for this deal in September? exclusive, for Corvettes only, by invitation only and the price the same as before if booked in advance. But credentials are important so gotta know your track experience...thanks

qwikredline....

BUMP Date Change September 9/10. So you can get over the labour day weekend get the kids off to school and get to heck out of the house....

THis just in from the partners of Calabogie motorsports for the Corvette posse: sign up by August 31 and you will get a chance to win gratis accomodation for two nights at the palatial Calabogie motorsports Tower condo.: Here is a note from Richard of Calabogie.

My partners and I would like to offer one of our executive suites at the track to one of you lucky folks for two nights, Sept 08 and 09th. You can ask Qwikredline or Devon Powell how decadent they are. We will raffle this prize off in the week prior to the event.

You'll have a great time!"
