A colleague won tickets to all of the World Cup hockey games.  She couldn't make all of them, so she sold a few here and there for $800 when Canada was scheduled to be playing.

She got $4800 for two tickets to the final game.  :o  Crazy.

Interesting - what's the demographic and percentage of Quebec plates to Ontario Plates?

Ho.Lee.Crap5.0'sAre.Fast!

First and 2nd aren't slow, but feel almost too short...hit third though and step on it  :o  :skid:...even 4th  :banana:...OMG it's like strapping a rocket ship to your shorts!  Even pulls pretty darn good in 5th...jeez and I thought my car was "decent".  I've had faster cars...well, one at least, but it couldn't do the rest of the stuff...like turn.

Will say though that that nose is so looong...at least from the front seats. I doubt anyone will ever sit in back, no way unless they're legless or under 3' tall.  Makes me wonder what it's like driving a 70's Corvette...like having a whale wanker laid out in front of you.  Guy at Customs thought it was strange we were parked 8' back...probably because it looks like you're 8" away...  Makes my Fusion feel, better (same wheel base and look the same length side by side, yet you can only get 2 in all that real estate in the Mustang - it's too big).  What I wouldn't give for a stick and 420 (V8) horsies in my car.  Damn...

I wish they made the mustang a little smaller, something like 7/8 its current form, or thereabouts.   It just looks too big, and the performance would be that much better assuming a proportinal weight loss.

Few Quebec plates if any.
The group ranged from early thirties to Corvette age ;-)

More pics


Now I know who did the rototiller work at Turn 20.  There were a number of spots like that yesterday when I went for my track day.  Either that or really big gophers or grubs.

Now I know who did the rototiller work at Turn 20.  There were a number of spots like that yesterday when I went for my track day.  Either that or really big gophers or grubs.

Not only did he spin out far into the grass, he gunned it to get out. Dirt was flying everywhere.
Well, the track bit him back.  Either he or his teammate spun and hit the wall near turn 2 during the last CTCC race. Calabogie is a hard track to learn.  Hahaha.
