Don't forget to bring some lawn chairs. We have some but not as many as we need.

I'd like to come but since my Roadster is still up on blocks after 27 years of storage it seems I'm excluded. An exception to the arrive in a Datsun rule please? Room for a 3rd Dave at this shindig?

All roadster owners included. Garth showed up at meets without his car, so you can too.

Do you want to be disappointed or well fed? Dynos are never what you expect or want but a good feed will always make you smile.

I hear that! But this dyno run is for tuning the timing (megajolt crank-fired) and carbs, not for bragging rights! After I get her running as she should, THEN I'll post some numbers (if I can bragg!!! Otherwise I will slink away and stick to building engines out of leggos...)

Hi folks :smt006
Tonight is our last night in a weeks time share at Canmore.
We have been busy touring all the Parks in the Rockies and even visited Drumheller to see the dinosaurs :)
Clocked up over 3,000K's in a Toyota Corolla on all sorts of roads.
Weather has been a bit variable but I'm still strutting around in a T shirt 8)
Love this country!
Tomorrow, Saturday we drive to Kamloops for a stay and then onto Vancouver.
At this stage it's all go to see y'all on Monday afternoon :D
Nissanman, just trying to help.

Would have liked to come, but had to work late. Weekends are definitely better, tho I'll likely be working the next 2 Saturdays anyway.........

Hope it all went well, perfect weather!
