yes still that tim horton / wendys corner. we park at the golf side. You do not have to worry about show boating as this is a scenic drive. just be wide awake!

Cool

I think there is a ride sharing lot there now; I will make myself obvious somewhere round the westbound off ramp.

Or just call 416-949-9085 when you are at 3rd Line/QEW and I will hop on the highway and coast until you pass me.

Please make sure you have a full tank of gas right before we start the cruise. It just makes things simple.

Bring your camera, FRS or GMRS.

See you guys tomorrow

Somehow, I am thinking that any RX7 I see tomorrow is headed where I am.

Silver FD, BTW.

lol I know I was just kidding about the show boating. My 79 drives just fine if I keep the RPM's below 5500, which of course is hard to do lol.

Looks like it's going to be a great day too!

Maybe get there earlier; I think we are doing the "call as the convoy drives by; fall into line on the highway" approach.

Unfortunately I got stuck with running errands and chores around the pad..
Haven't been done in awhile, so I'll take advantage of the nice weather.

Hopefully I'll be able to do the 8 cruise next weekend. Weather pending that is.

Hope someone takes lots of pics.

That was a GREAT time. Lots of fun! 13 RX7s in one place; that doesn't happen too often.

Glad we all made it ok. Great to meet new owners and see people I know.

There was a black FD on the side of Highway 25 at Lower Base Line on my way home; looked to be changing a flat. Wonder who that was? I am not aware of any other RX7s in Milton.

Here are my pics:

Did anyone find out what happened to Hybrid G?

If you remember my car alarm went off last year at the rest stop and Hybrid G broke down, spooky it like Déjà vu. Had a great time and good to see the old gang and alot of new faces.

i bloody slept in and forgot to set an alarm clock! I was going to hop in with mr. cool, but it looks like you didn't stop anyway. Looks like a decent turn out. I'd love to see the tunnel video, blasting through the tunnel last year was awesome, i couldn't even hear my redline buzzer. :P

hey guys it seem that my car does not like the elevation changes, boost issues, hesitations and i have been noticing my heat gauge rising and falling and the last stop we had well the heat rose it never fell....so i shut it down.

i did not have my laptop....... and the problem was i have a 2 stage fan and the 2nd stage was not kicking in and cuting off the first stage so no rad fan.

well car is running well again

I just waited for an hr for it to cool down and got on the QEW and home
