As far as the Calgary guys... I know a fair few... and most of them happen to be the brave ones that chose to stay and party with us troopers out at Drumheller. Again, I'll leave it at that.

As far as me 'attacking you'... I did no such thing. You chose to get overly defensive about my post, and I replied appropriately. On a similar note, you seems to assume I'm 'mad' about something. Again, a major negative there. It's the way I post... if you don't like it, don't read it.


Maybe some people are misreading my concerns; we have a meet that has in the past been mostly about Alberta and Saskatchewan... organized in Alberta... hosted in Alberta (as a centralized event), now (tentatively) being moved to BC... and to the coast none the less.
Now, if the 16-18 year old kids here have their summers to waste traveling to the coast for something like this, that's fine. But some of us with real jobs couldn't be bothered to travel for 2 days, only to camp out for one night and listen to a bunch of people talk about how little they know about their cars.

Either way, I'm too ******* busy for this. Take me off the list, and don't look in to the fact anymore.
You know what Tyler i think your post came across strong and I read into it too much. End of the matter being as Mark stated that nobody has even stepped up to organize anywhere yet so no big panic, it may end up in sask or alberta. Like i said i never wanted to fight so sorry for reading into it to much.

Speaking of stepping up.... I have made arrangements for those that wish to come to Saskatoon I got 2 FULL HOTELS, 1 with a campsite and it's 5 km's away from SIR

I got this done and pre confirmed by Dec 22nd 2009.

But my other account was deleted/banned for whatever reasons. Which i dont really care about.

Oh... by the way.. i talked the hotel price down by 12.00 / night

65.99 / night, full access to the pools after hours, and 5 km's away from SIR

well in the end if nobody from bc is gonna step up and track down info and set things up for the meet and someone from sask is already doing that then the logical thing would be to do it in sask. as much as i would like bc it doesn't really matter to me.

i agree with steve on this. you may win the poll but one of you will have to commite yourselves to organizing it. this is no small job. chad worked damn hard on it last year, with help from some of us. he was putting himself on the line and really came through in the end. i supplied the decals for the meet in which i am willing to do again but before i commite myself to this i want to see a person completely dedicated to organizing this event. just so you know it took me almost 2 months to complete it. i will be changing the approach on these to make it easier for me this year. if this event is going to be successful the organizer must be prepared and on the ball. there is too much that can go wrong and when guys are coming from 2 provinces away you do not want to have any mistakes. once again if he hasn't heard it before i will say it again CHAD YOU DID A HELL OF A JOB LAST YEAR!!!!!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH. for the record i voted i dont care where it is. so hopefully if you win bc someone will step up and take on this challenge. if not then we will see you at saskatoon boys!!!!!!!!! one last thing i actually hope someone does step up from bc coz that will mean we can race in conditions comparible to the americans and the we can see how our times finally compare to them. instead of racing at 3000ft above sea level and running a sec slower then them.

well no offense to the others but this is a western canada cobalt meet and last time i checked BC is as far west in canada as you can go. and if someone is able to set everything up for BC then that is where the meet will be. if we loose a few people due to them not being able to take the time off to do the trip, then it is 100% understandable.

Ok rob posted in the bc section and said he would help organize if its in bc, i would also help and im sure theres a few others to pitch in. Hes back march 6th

heres his post

BC, I can help plan... we can have it in the Rockies to be fair and have amazing scenery possibly??? I won't be able to help with planning until at LEAST March 6th before I can start planning anything because I am in New Zealand right now. Literally across the world by about 16 000 kms from home.

i know i am speaking from the rest of us that this is cool with those meets but we would love to see you all at the meet if bc gets it. it sounds like they are getting people involved now and the poll is definatly in thier favour. so i hope that you all show up there too. i do realize that it is far but it will be worth it in my books.
