Saber49 · 05-16-2008, 01:01 AM

Hey guys... my Sky Redline just developed a misfire in cylinder 3. check engine light is on and its 2 days before the cruise... i work friday 8-5 and the dealer is only open that whole day at that time. so it looks like im out of luck and unable to come. ill have to get it looked at saturday morning. if they have the parts they'll fix it i guess. if not then im screwed. i may still make it down for sundays events but i think im out of saturday for sure almost...

Sorry guys...
Take lots of pics!

We really had a great time last night at O'Connors. We felt warmly welcomed and had fun laughing and sharing all kinds of stories. We are looking forward to our first international run today. It's great to know the Sky-Solstice obsession is alive and well in Canada. We understand this one, but we're still trying to understand the "Tim Whorton" (sp. ?) obsession.
Thanks for making us feel at home!

Hi All

Pictures from our point of view are on Facebook, just add me .. Denis Blais

You all saw taht i let Chantal drive the way back from the Chocolate Factory....She can power shift and drive fast..... on freeway 417 ....cruising speed was 160-170 km/h (100-105 mp/h) with a slight peak at close to 200 km/h (125 mp/h). She even gave it a shot to drift off the offramp.....she ll need to practice...but i am sure she ll get the hang of it ....

It was all nice and fun to meet you all , and my schedule is already booked for the SOOO ride being held in beginning of august !!!

Cheeeers All , hope you made it home o.k.

I would like to thank those from SSOOO for driving (in the rain) from the GTA to Ottawa as well as thank the members from NCRRO (existing and new!!!) & guesses from Phoenix (Forever Young) for supporting this joint drive….I may be bias, but I have deemed it a great success! Perhaps a new annual tradition has been born???

Until next time…..See you on roads!!!!

PS....Some photos have been added to NCRRO Site as well.

Anyone have thoughts on where/when we should go next? Long run but Quebec City is celebrating #400.

Any other suggestions?
