Hey Ernie

Sounds good to me. If you are going I'll meet you in Red Deer and we could cruz down for the show as long as work does not intervene. Saturdays are normally good for me as long as nothing work wise comes up on the Friday. (Damb Oil & Gas)

Well, I'm runnin the 2.85 right now but may take it off until I get ready to flash the tune. I don't think that running the 2.85 is really seeing any gains other than low end torque as the stage II tune is set up for a 3.0 pulley and no CAI.

I know with the tune I will be able to find a few more horse and might be able to pull off a 13.8. I guess we'll have to wait and see at the track. Not sure about launchin though as this is my first FWD muscle and there not easy to launch.

Haha shitt... Well i know it's different from the world of wheels, Is the world of wheels this weekend in Edmonton? I think it is a tuner show, everyone has been telling me about the 15th, i ask everyone i see and i seem to get different answers. i wish there was a web site with the damn dates! lol, let me go ask some more techs cause those guys love car shows and see what they say. Jesus this is crazy lol. Let me comfirm with the guys in the back one more time.

TheDriver!
02-26-2007, 05:20 PM
Ok, this March, 1-4 is the Edmonton Motor Show, thats all I know for car shows in Edmonton! Don't know if the people in Edmonton want to chime in about that? My whole point of starting this thread was at least getting a meet of sorts in Edmonton at the EMS..

I had this dream of having the majority of whoever showed parked together.. Sorta a Cobalt paking area:twothumbs.. I still am going to try and go this weekend and am willing to even go later in the day if I can cruize with anyone from Cow town and area to the show.. Damn this :cussing: long winter!!!!!! Oh the World Of Wheels was just last week/ weekend in Calg if I remember correctly.. I don't think it goes to Eddy as they have the Motor show..

MLeclair
02-26-2007, 05:22 PM
OKay so far i came up with this....

March 14th to 18th, calgary auto show.

http://www.calgarymotordealers.com/autoshow2007/ticket.html

I really doubt this is the tuner one... definitely will be having some nice cars, but nothing tuner i dont think... Looks like i missed the tuner one on saturday last weekend.


As for March 3rd, it's a pretty lame on in my eyes too.... here is some pictures and information..... man i'm sad...

http://www.emdacars.com/motorshow2004/hours.html

I really dont know what my plans are now... I can't find if there even is a tuner show in edmonton. Damn this sucks.

TheDriver!
02-26-2007, 05:49 PM
Ah ok, lol the auto show in Calg seems like the same show in Eddyton.. It looks like people in Calg are better off waiting for the Auto show there then drive 2hrs just to see the same thing! Myself I know what the Ed show is like soo thats why I want to go, they have a nice set up and its always cool to see whats comming out and whats new in products etc.. I don't think anyone in Edmonton with Cobalts is going cause noone has said anything in this thread:lol: ..

MLeclair
02-26-2007, 05:57 PM
Well i'm going up to edmonton anyways, gonna spead some unwanted money at the big old west ed mall heh. Not going to see that show, not really my think, sorry guys.

Okay lol, this weekend.....

Edmonton has a car show, it's pretty werid, just has a ton of super cars and big race cars. Nothing that floats my boat. But other then that take a look at the web site, has some pictures....

http://www.emdacars.com/motorshow2004/hours.html

Other then that, me and my buddy adam, who is driving the lancer are heading up to edmonton at 10am, till 9pm. We are just hanging out at the mall, doing some shoppin, and hitting up the rollercoaster. Your welcome to drive up with us if u want too Larry. But we are doing 120 all the way there lol.

Ok...Ok....OK!!!!! The show in Eddy is it the world of wheels. Cause if it is I'm in as long as the weather holds out. So for all you young fockers, maybe you should come and learn something about old school giddy yap. If it isn't you should get your asses off the couch and come anywho just to get some peeps to meet up.

Like...well...yah know we are rival cities but its all for the love of God... I mean Cars.

02-27-2007, 12:16 PM
Cool, nice to see some are interested in meeting or going.. I'm going to rob the nearbye corner store soo I can go.. Just won't be during the week for me.. Saturday or Sunday is good for me.. I doubt we'll be able to park together unless its far away from the door but who knows..

Let the count down begin Cobalt peeps:twothumbs Lets also see whats best for all on a time of day too.. I'm good anytime as I don't live far away. Lets represent:twothumbs :ca: :cssNET:

Kaisoboy
02-27-2007, 01:18 PM
Well, it would seem that an early start is to hard on the young folks (Oh...Muffins). So I would suggest we make it for around 11-12 Saturday or Sunday. It would seem that the weather might be favorable on the weekend.

Driver, if you want I do not mind picking you up seeing as I have to pass by Red Deer any way.

What does every one think...Yes, that means you guys. Ha Ha

TheDriver!
02-27-2007, 05:03 PM
Thanks Larry for the pick up idea, haven't rode in a S/C yet but as my name states, I'm a driver not a passenger;) .. But ya you Balts from the south of Red Hole let me know when you gonna leave and I'll meet up near gasoline alley on hiway 2, its just as you hit Red Deer soo no biggy.. You can stop for gas, eats whatever and then motor on.. I just wanna go so I'll sacrifice leaving early if I can run with some other cars :) :twothumbs Ok enough posting from me untill we know more..

MLeclair
02-27-2007, 05:13 PM
I hope we can leave about 10ish, after the show i'll be spliting up though, gotta do that shoppin and go-kartin/rollercoaster fun at west ed hah. But i'm definitely lookin forward to driving up with a few of u guys.

Kaisoboy
02-27-2007, 06:55 PM
Ok Driver. Lets see how the weather holds out.If the roads are good I'll go. I have to warn you though. Every time I go to Eddy I come back in a snow storm. Ha Ha

TheDriver!
02-28-2007, 03:08 AM

Soo Mike ya gonna go shopping 4 ur girl eh.. Well tell us what you find her eh.. I found out today that my pay cheque is gonna suck soo I might be out for the show but I'm gonna go sell some sperm I think so I can go as I'm that desperate:lol: .. I'm going if I have to ration my food till my next pay on the 16th but I'm going!!!!!

I read theres going to be some collection of Ferrari's in Edmonton and well I'm not going to miss that:twothumbs 12 exotics alone.. Hey Rob got your message, keep in touch if you can go eh.. I heard it may be 10 above on Saturday in Red Deer so maybe spring will finally arrive, it better cause as some of you said this is ridiculous.. 6 months of slippin and sliding and cleaning snow off a car is getting mind numbing!! Anyways enough from me.. Larry let me know when you wanna leave Calgary on Saturday so we can meet up ok.. Peace

TheDriver!
03-01-2007, 04:49 PM
Well I'm definatly in for the show in Edmonton:twothumbs .. My rm mate is gonna cover my part of the rent for March so giddy up!! I'll have to pay her back naturally.. I've been waiting months to go:)

Hope I get to meet you guys soon.. I was thinking too if you come through RD just take the 67th street exit and meet at the Timmy's that just off of highway 2 on the right hand side.. Its alot easier to find and get back on the highway.. Take care everyone, thanks for showing interest and I look forward to meeting with you all:thumb:

Kaisoboy
03-01-2007, 07:27 PM
Hey Driver

I have an inner ear infection...(God Dammit) that might prevent me from going. I woke up this morning and could barely stand up without wanting to hit the ground. I went to the hospital this morning (just got home) so I will have to let you know by tomorrow if I can drive or not. (I hope so.) They gave me a bunch of shit to take to clear it up. I don't feel bad so I will let you by the end of friday. I would like to roll into Red deer if I can go by about 10:00 AM and yeh we could meet at the Timmies on 67th.

TheDriver!
03-02-2007, 03:11 AM
