That VT looks incredible!
Wow, looks sweet! I bet you Lucas is drooling to take some photos of that car! More TR's are always welcome. If he manages to confirm, let me know and I'll add him to the official list.
Just wanted to let everyone know that we will have a professional camera crew coming along that will be videotaping the event and will be making the edited video freely available for download on the internet. It WILL NOT be sold for profit. I'm working with them to figure out good vantage points where they can position themselves to get shots from the side of the road as the cars go by as well.
0% chance of rain tomorrow, so DRIVE IS ON! It is going to be windy and cold though... sucks for people with spyders/targa's. Morning looks to be a high of 10 and warming up to 16 by afternoon. See you all tomorrow morning! DONT BE LATE OR WE LEAVE WITHOUT YOU!

you guys have no idea how many people are showing up, i know theres at least 10 people coming that have know idea why,where etc but people keep telling me there going on a "exotic car drive" tommorow and they don't even know where it is.
Haha.. ok well have these people email me so I can add them to the list and I can update the restaurant with the new headcount. James, if you're in touch with these guys, please have them email me directly at springfling @ manta.ca so I can send them the route information! BTW, what cars are you bringing? Surely you must know by now! Are Sergio and Tony coming?
you know what buddy i still have no idea, we just sold the 360 i was going to bring, i know sunil in his 348 tony mondial t cab\ james- z8 or 959 or 360 spider jason no idea yet sergio undecided if hes coming and oh yeah my client/friend doug is coming in his 2005 viper srt-10 with his stepson.
As I emailed Arshad, I am now only a possible due to family emergency in Midland. I'm on my way there now. Arshad: You lead now . . . hope you remember the route . . . Ian
Ian, very sorry to hear that. Family always comes first, and I hope everything works out ok. James: I think I saw one of your cars on the road just now coming home from work. A blue with white stripes Viper GTS, with relatively new (AWxx) Autoforum plates.
Ian best wishes buddy, hope everything is okay. Arshad, I keep trying to print the directions but I keep getting a mess for the maps. Tried making the printer quality better but I keep getting back boxes where the maps should be. Anyone else experiencing this?
Jay: This is the first I'm hearing of such a problem. Very odd -- appears fine on your screen, but messed up on the printer? I hope nobody else is experiencing this. I'll print off a few extra copies and bring them with me tomorrow, so just grab one from me before the run.
Ian, I hope everything is ok my friend. Arshad, I was with James (Diablo) today. As I suspected the only thing that was done to the 01 Diablo was another inch of dust added to it. The car looks dead! However, James (With 911 Substitute), Ed (Vanquish) and Stu (car?) were supposed to get confirmed with you today. James called me a little while ago for the pass code etc. Did everything work out ok? I truly hope you guys have fun. Since I can't go I hope my friends enjoy themselves Drive save everyone. V..
Vasco, I haven't heard from Ed or James so I'm assuming they were able to obtain the route information without a problem. I've been in discussion with Stu, and he will be bringing 4 confirmed cars and another 2 tentative. BTW, let James know that if he needs his Diablo to stay in tip-top mechanical condition without the seals drying out, I'll be more than happy to give it a regular workout! I've added the latest info to the roster list: www.manta.ca/springfling/roster.html We're up to almost 60 cars and I know that there will be a few more tentatives that may show up as well. It's gonna be crazy fun I just wish the weather were a bit warmer, but I'll take the cold over rain any day...
LOL, yeah no kidding. But its actually the opposite. That guy actually drives the thing all the time! It's all dirty, and the front full of wear from the road. It needs a manacure for sure. Right now it is having some technical difficulties so the car has been asleep on the top of a hoist for weeks. Sad to see. Hopefully you can meet him and he can tell you the story. He's a cool guy and a very good friend. Ed I only know through James. He owns the Vanquish (His second one). Also had a 2001 360 Spider and other cars. V..
Hey Arshad, count me in, I originally thought I was going to be out of town and I got back early. I will contact Rick and join you guys. Later
