Winter Beater Meet 2006 ~ Calgary

Its that time again!

Im opening the door to suggestions of the 2006 Winter Beat Meet Calgary. This has become an age old tradition of Rotary Owners all over calgary!

With the warming weather, I have heard the call in the wind! Bring your cars, Pictures, Models (like nubian) or Ideas for future projects! Come one, Come All!

I'd like to open suggestioins and suggest Sunday the 29th of January (this sunday) as the weather looks like its going to be astoundingly good all week.

Say 1PM at A&W like the last meet?


Any suggestions? I intend to bring my 7, as its my winter beater and soon to be only motor vehicle in my collection.

I would also like to note that in 2 years, this is the first meet I've accually brought an RX-7.

If we actually get any snow this year it would be a great challenge. Otherwise, we might end up doing a regular auto-x type of thing. Depending on the time, I might bring out my DD T-bird. Kick all your asses out there.

I suggest we move it to the weekend after superbowl. Gives us more time to prepare and spread the word.


(That, and I have school this weekend).

If there's a meet, I'll be driving my Jeep or a rental. (My Jeep is currently in the body shop because some jackass threw a cinder block through the rear window)

By the way, I'm going to be building a house and will need a secure place to store my car from, say, April through September. If anyone knows of such a place, please PM me.

Is that the A&W at Chinook? If so i'll come..

So is it Saturday or Sunday? We should try a meet in Feb sometime.. I think this is to little notice and not enough people will show.

Februray 11th, Saturday, 1PM At the A&W Across from Chinook Center, the place of the last meet.


Come one, come all.


I'll bring my blown motor to demonstrate what lack of oil does to your motor.


On a side note, this motor now leaks oil. Hahahaha.
