Ivan, we'll be around all day and like Mike said, we'll probably go hit a patio later on somewhere. So definatly stop by.

j_man_1100, heres a link to the shops address http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en...wloc=addr&om=1 It would be great if you could make it.

Thanks for that. I'll be coming down 401. Do you suggest getting off at the sawmill road exit or follow around to highway 8 and get off at victoria street?

Exit at Hwy 8 and follow it until Maple Grove RD exit. Take it and follow Maple Grove to Fountain St. Turn Left onto Fountain, then left onto Woolwich just past the airport.

That probably the quickest and most direct

Thanks to everyone that made it out for the day! Weather was perfect, and lots of people showed up from near and far. Frank and Luc made the 10 hour drive from Montreal in Franks RX-8, and Matt came from New York to pick up his RHD FC!

I have lots of pics from Saturday if anyone is interested.

Aaron, do you have the video of the FC race car running? a few people have asked me for it.

It was good to see so many people out to support the new shop! I wish that I could have stayed longer. I barely made it as it was, with towing my latest aquisition from London to the shop and then 140kms/hr to Orillia with 5 minutes to spare! I couldn't have done it without Joe and Dan's help. Thanks guys!
I'll be having an 'appointment' next week with Dr. Afternoonoff so I can come by and bug you guys again!

Now...let's see some pics!

I put them up on YouTube here (and also make sure to check out my other rotary videos):

I still have the high quality (640 x 480 @ 30 FPS) originals as well if you want those. As you can imagine they are huge so transferring them could be annoying. I could probably put them on my website for a limited time so you can download...
