still doesn't negate the fact that it's 2.5 hours give or take 15 minutes from edmonton to calgary

 

so what's keeping all your spirits high in this dreary weather?

(yes that was an oh-so-subtle subject change from what's possibly the lamest topic if discussion here ever!)

 

not arguing but where are you starting your timing from, from actual city limit to city limit its not 3 hours, any map and gps system goes from city center to city center which is 3 hours.

and my hopes are drowning with the rain lol

 

oh my... did I just see a snowflake?

 

do not say that jon. i will hunt you down grrrrr

 

Why? This day 3 years ago know what I was doing? Having a baby that's what!

I like rain, and snow... Just saying...

 

yah city limit to city limit is not 2 hours to med hat doing the speed limit, i just did that drive last weekend at 130km/h all the way and i didnt even do it in 2 hours, and edmonton is the same, drove that road every weekend for a year and the only way you can do city limit to city limit is to be doing well over the speed limit.

 

I don't know where you guys are getting your weather but it's plus 20 here! lol

 

where are you?

 

it would seem i'm overrun, so i will drop the subject about how long it takes to get to edmonton or medicine hat.

and jon its forecasted to be raining here for the rest of the week

 

ya. I was gonna warm you guys about that but I thought it was best if you heard from a different source

 

hahaha, its not really raining that bad, just kinda spritzing right now. yesterday was pretty decent downfall though

 

Well add this to the weather report...

I'll play the traffic chick
Calgary

 

I vote Jon has to tell us how long it takes to get from Edmonton to his house now

 

looks like i'll be taking the back way to your house for the next 6 months

and agreed, jon should time himself now lol

 

Funny I know all the back ways to Jons house from mine. Think I should tell him? Haha
Literally NO traffic brilliant!

 

no let him go and discover them himself lol. random drives trying to find shortcuts are fun

 

You really don't know Jon do you? I actually think this was might be faster, and it's really fun at night. No ones around and curves. <3

 

i know of a couple differen't way's to get to your house, deerfoot is usually quicker for me

 

Still going to CED meet steve?

 

probably not now due to recent events, i would love to go but got a few other important things i've got to take care of first.

 

^^I never read that you had aspired to do this to begin with...

if you do plan on going one of these years, maybe you could let me know?

 

i saw he was listed to go. i just dont feel like going, plus there is no way my parents would let me go that far

 

i also just got a quote from the car salon, they want 279.99 plus tax for all 5 windows done with lifetime warranty.

tint masters wants 314.00 with tax and lifetime warranty, but they only have 4 shades of black.

ill probably go with car salon

 

That's a long drive.. it would be much more tolerable with even another person doing the same drive...

I've been out that way to attend the Trans Am Nationals (Dayton Ohio) in 2006, and then again the Pontiac Nationals (Norwalk Ohio) in 2008.

Both of those trips were a good three days of driving each way...

I took the '73 to the TA nat's, but opted to take the GA to the Pontiac nats, and instead of sitting in a showfield or walking around all day, I spend all of the Pontiac nat's doing (well loosing) bracket races!

In between races;



My best from the weekend was a couple of 15.4's;
But ultimately my inconsistency was what did me in;
This was with a different (smaller) set of cams, no header, while running a GM stock tune.
