Looks like the Gods have smiled upon us and granted us some nice driving weather for the Dream Drive. A far cry from last year when we literally had to outrun Hurricane Irene. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Posted in the QC section: A big heartfelt THANK YOU to all who participated in this year's event. 30 cars and 20, 000$. A big thank you to the Montreal Motorcycle Police who were kind enough to let us play on the free way. Lastly, a really big thank you to the family at Ferrari-Maserati of Québec, who were gracious enough to host our event, and who also sent out the Dream Drive invites to their affluent clientele. Thanks for bringing the 458 Italia Spider. PS: I hope that no one got hurt by the "flying windshield banners" Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Hey Bernie, if it's a nice day why don't we take a drive south of town somewhere close to the border? Didn't you have a place to go to?
Hey that sounds fine! I'm into that, it's looking like a dry day but cool (around 17), great for the cars... sounds good. We won't need to leave all that early, we could meet at Cafe Milano perhaps? Let me know...
Sounds great, I'll be at Cafe Milano around 9am for a Caffe Latte and a Croissant. Sue is in Ottawa for the weekend so I'll be alone... Have you called anyone?

My friends, first off, Happy 2013, and I wish all of you enjoy many troublefree miles this driving season. I would like to give everyone a little heads up regarding a fund-rasier that directly affects two of our long-time FCA directors. This fundraiser is the Friends For Life, and will be held on February 2nd at the Crown Plaza, Volare Reception Hall (6600 Cote-de-Liesse, Saint-Laurent, QC H4T 1E3) The details can be found by clicking on the link here below. If you cant make the event, I strongly urge you to make a donation. http://www.mountainlake.org/support/friends.html Thanks! Image Unavailable, Please Login
I really commend you guys for the great job you do for the Montreal Children's Hospital. I wanted to know if you allow others non Ferrari owners to participate? Owners of Porsche's, and other high end cars, and if so who could I contact next summer? Thx
