Red Deer and central Alberta chat thread.
Great. I have to regardless. I'm there on the show floor for two hours, and then I'm meeting up with Denny from Castrol to finish some things up for the meet, and then packing up with Team ACE Racing funny car that's on display at the Joey's Place exhibit down on the lower level... I won't be home until like ******* 10p. 
was there anything decent at all?

Well Chad there was to be honest
.. The zr1 was causing a crowd but not near as much as an orange/red 2010 Camaro SS which I loved frankly but hell of a time getting a good pic! The new Hyundia Genisis coupe was not to shabby and that had one of the nicest interiors I must say. The Audi R8 was very sexy and so damn small lol. I'm a picky car guy and really love my exotics but it was nice to see the new Lambo Gallardo LP 560-4
I didn't see the hot blonde near by till after I looked at the Merc LP640
All and all I didn't have a favorite I was just dissapointed that the downstairs portion was so sparse!!
No good shwag to buy even!! Oh and wait till you see the limited edition Cobalt they had behind the Camaro 
Sadly it was riced out!
The show was still a waste of money however
Here in RD there having a collector car and auction / car show at the Westerner grounds March 14th and 15th so I think that will be worth while

Well I'm glad I've got a free ticket and the only thing I'll have to pay for are mini donuts. 
That limited edition Cobalt was there last year. I remember it. Actually, I might have a picture of it still... I'll have to check. Thanks for the review of the show, now I know what I should be looking for in my two hours there.

talk about ugly. here's some from this year's motorshow. I didn't take much of the dealer stuff, it's all stuff you could go to a dealership instead of paying $5 for parking and $12 for a ticket. The real show was downstairs. I heard that from a few people when I was at the Joey's Place booth down below. I got my own little pass with my own name on it and everything.

It was not worth it at all. Those cars weren't there, that was last year's powerama. If I was at home I'd post up a link to my pictures on Facebook that I put up from the show this year. There was really nothing there this year. There were definitely way less vehicles there and some of the smaller automakers weren't there. Smart was there though. POS if you ask me.
The new drummond brewery is opening up their mini lounge right at the shop this weekend. I was talking to the owner and every day they're open they will be serving 3.25 draft(pint size)!! He said they will have hockey on the tv so it should be a good time LOL. I think I'll be going Saturday.
Where's that at?
btw, here's the pictures I was talking about: http://www.new.facebook.com/album.ph...366417&l=a85b3

I ended up going to school.. jazz choir at noon so I had to go to that, and now I have concert choir after school until 5:30. seems to have calmed down since I left. HOWEVER, 9ft drifts in the ditches on the road to my house, and the drifts on the road are almost 5ft tall. Lets say my little cobalt really powered through it.
That silver s/c has been at RD motors for some time.. I now am out in da **** of it all now driving my UPS truck and ya oh what fun
.. I know Rob can agree the drive alone into Edgar Industrial was bad!! Not a whole lotta people stuck out there this Thursday tho that I seen..
I got stuck myself tho at the end of a dead end street in Vanier but got out with some skill and the power of my little Ford engine
But that was on Wed..
I see Chad you and I pretty much have the same taste in cars as by your pic

Good Saturday to you all..
Well I just looked at the weather forecast for next week
... Funny thing is I have seen Corvettes running around.. People are getting ancy..
What has anyone seen out there driving around that you would think should be put away for the winter still? I saw that nice red RX7 with the big black wing and black wheels
He was booting it through an area I deliver in, I could barely keep up
..
Have a safe weekend everyone
