[Rexter9x]

[TdotAlero]

I might try to make it out to this meet. Gotta see how much $$ I have after replacing my leaky caliper
I just replaced mine, after it got stuck on me on the highway... :rolleyes2:
So we are like 3 weeks away from the meet, right?

[tw0123]

yupp pretty close to 3 weeks...
March 11th
Barrie-see previous page(s) for location
hopefully we can get more than 5-6 cars this time!!
still great to sit and chat with everyone...
wet snow/rain 1st meet, scorching hot sun 2nd meet, driving rain 3rd meet, what will this one bring??? who cares, I'm in :)

[Thewolf]

Maybe it may bring a mixture of all 3? Who cares what the weather is going to be like, I'm down for a cruise though Barrie. On sundays there isn't much people on the road so we'll be convoying lol.

[Vitamin CC]

Hey, im from Sudbury, barrie is a bit of a drive but it isnt to bad, does any of you guys have the 2.4 with the 5spd? Or you all just the 3400 guys?

[tw0123]

my coupe is the 2.4, but sadly its auto... as far as i remember i am the only one with the 2.4... ross has the 2.2 eco with a 5 speed, he is from windsor...

[tw0123]

http://i61.servimg.com/u/f61/15/91/04/50/a-bump10.jpg

who else can make the trip next week??

[Rexter9x]

Mmmm, a bumpy road.... that just calls for a lowered car lol

[tw0123]

i agree... so you think you will be able to make it up? you could caravan with Shiwnath... he is from kitchener too...

[Rexter9x]

After doing my brakes, just noticed one of my lines running from the transmission to the rad is leaking.... Im not having any luck lately.

[MMGT1]

The lines come as a kit. Sucks, but not too bad. Around 100 bucks dealer price I think. I dont know if ours are available a/m??

[Rexter9x]

More of a pain then anything.... seems every year around Feb/March Im fixing something lol.

[tw0123]

lol i hear ya there... took me 2 years to find a motor for my sedan after the minivan i bought for the motor swap got transformed into the family transportation device... i got home and my gf looks at me and was like its not pretty but it will work for the family... what?? lol yupp im pregnant... aww shit lol... happy times but meant my car sat even longer lol

[street_fire]

Are we just meetin in Berrie or we going for a cruise after???

[MMGT1]

If it's nice enough, I vote for a cruise guys

[Alero779]

Same!!

[tw0123]

lol will have to see how much gas is left in the tank to cruise... but if possible I am up for it...

[Thewolf]

I checked the weather and it's going to be 9 degrees on sunday, so I guess the cruise is on!!!

[tw0123]

cool... after checking google street view, the best spot to meet might be in the front corner of the lot by the BAY...
it is right on the corner of Bayfield st and Livingstone St.
come off the 400, head up Bayfield, turn right onto Livingstone and left at the lights... quick left, zip up the side of the building back towards the front of the mall...

[Alero779]

Is it supposed to be sunny for once?? :P If someone has a decent camcorder you should bring that as well! :)

[tw0123]

lol just dont record any speeds travelled hahahaha... of course we will be following all posted speed limits....
my digital camera takes some video, ill see what i can to...

[Thewolf]

Remember the speed limit in Barrie is 50 km/h. :) :lol:

[street_fire]

My car doesn't like doin 50km/h lol

[MMGT1]

Guys, what time are we meeting? Got another Malibu guy that I tuned a couple of weeks ago that would like to join in. He's not a member here yet, but I think he's going to be real soon...lol So, looks like you can add me to the for sure list!

[Thewolf]

Around 1 pm, MMGT1. We'll see you there!

[tw0123]

YAA!! more people coming... I talked with Mike today and he is still tentative... getting headers on apparently is more important than coming to hang out with us lol jk!! hopefully they can breeze through it so he can still make it...
Anyone know if there is a car wash close by? most of us have a decent drive ahead of us, I am sure a quick splash will be in order!

[TdotAlero]

Will be there for sure. Just got home from work. Spent 3 hours fixing rust. Now it's gone :yahoo:

[tw0123]

Will be there for sure. Just got home from work. Spent 3 hours fixing rust. Now it's gone :yahoo:

wanna do mine next???

[MMGT1]

^^ that's what she said :haha:

[Thewolf]

I checked the weather again and they said that it's going to be 15 degrees! :yahoo: Hey Tim, why do you always pick the best dates and I pick the best place? :lol:


Tim, there's a coin-operated car wash on yonge street in barrie, I'll take you guys there when we go on the cruise. ;)

[Alero779]

I have a GPS and will be using that to my advantage to wash the car before i get there lol! So just out of sheer curiosity how many people will be in attendance tomorrow?? From my count it will be at least 8 of us :)

[Shiwnath]

Windsor/Kitchener guys! Does anyone want to cruise down there together?

[Alero779]

Shiwnath I'll be picking a friend up in Sarnia around 9:30 and heading up if u wanted to start a convoy.

[tw0123]

Shiwnath I'll be picking a friend up in Sarnia around 9:30 and heading up if u wanted to start a convoy.


lol that sounds soo horrible cuz i know what friend you are picking up!!! :haha: :scpimp:

[Shiwnath]

Shiwnath I'll be picking a friend up in Sarnia around 9:30 and heading up if u wanted to start a convoy.

Alright sounds good. Would you want to exit off in Kitchener at King St. and meet me at the Shell gas station? I'm assuming you might want to fill up before we head to Barrie.

The address of the gas stations is:
4574 King Street East, Kitchener, ON
Check it out on google maps and tell if me if that works for you.

Edit: the gas station is right near the 401 so it's not too much of a hassle

[Alero779]

LOL Tim do u now? :P

[MMGT1]

Kind of a bummer, just got word that Pat can't make it tomorrow. We'll have to get him and Sarah out for the next one I guess...

[tw0123]

that's too bad... next meet is mandatory for all those who do not make this one!!! lol

[MMGT1]

Sounds good! We'll be there tomorrow and it does sound like its going to be a beautiful day!!

[TdotAlero]

I am heading out of Mississauga around 11-11:30ish from Winston Chruchill/401. If anybody will be passing by I will join. Look out for a silver Alero :P

[MMGT1]

Was a good little meet and the weather was awesome. Lookin' forward to seeing you all again real soon! Hope you all got home safe and sound guys

[Shiwnath]

It was nice seeing you all there and putting a face to the username :D

[Thewolf]

It was also nice seeing you guys and what you did to your cars. I hope that we can meet again (at a more centralized location). This time I will have my alero to show you guys :P. I hope you guys had a nice drive and a safe trip home. I could just imagine all you guys on the 400 :P.

[Alero779]

It was a good time today with good company and good weather!! I thought Barrie was a bit far but that doesn't matter to me as long as I can afford it and I'm free I'll always be there!! Hope everyone had a safe cruise home and I look forward to the next meet!

[a.graham52]

what sucks is i feel so isolated from everyone living so far east. no one around me has an alero and you guys are all so far away.

[MMGT1]

Yea, Maine is quite the haul from here man. I've travelled that way when visiting home before. I go through Maine, Vermont and New Hamp when travelling to the east coast. Maine and Vermont are two beautiful States though man, looks like a real nice place to live!

[tw0123]

ya.... had a great time today for sure... i got a bit of a sunburn!!! lol... anyone actually take any pictures today?? i got busy talking and chasing kids i never thought to grab the camera... other than from the toddlers so it didnt get broken!!
glad everyone made it home safely... thanks for coming for the drive and show... we will get a summer show closer to the west end for sure!!

[TdotAlero]

Great times for sure. Got home safe and sound, and just finished waxing my tails and headlights :) 300kms and still half a tank of gas left. Awesome, and that's with 130km/h steady :D

[tw0123]

so i just found these pictures taken at the barrie meet... of my kids playing in the car!! that's all that were taken this time around...

[2003GLS]

[MMGT1]

Yea, we should soon! Id like to show off the new goodies... lol

[tw0123]

[tw0123]

[tw0123]

[Thewolf]

I will be able to make it (with my alero this time) lol. See? I told you that my niagara falls meet will succeed :P. I'm down with patrick to go with me in the haunted houses together :lol:

[tw0123]

thats sucks i probally wont b able 2make it

why don't you think you will be able to make it? if we meet at noon, have a quickish lunch and then tour, it will be probably around 2 before we cruise to niagara... more then likely get back around 5-7ish lol...

[2003GLS]

why don't you think you will be able to make it? if we meet at noon, have a quickish lunch and then tour, it will be probably around 2 before we cruise to niagara... more then likely get back around 5-7ish lol...

because i normally work sundays so it all depends if i get that one off

[tw0123]

Fair enough... think you have enough time to ask for it off being almost a month ahead? W it would be awesome if we can get a big cruise...

[TdotAlero]

I will be able to make it (with my alero this time) lol. See? I told you that my niagara falls meet will succeed :P. I'm down with patrick to go with me in the haunted houses together :lol:

Btw Ryan I'm getting your intake piping and the led 3rd brake light from the other member...
Ross was going to buy my sway bar but not sure if he can now and I'll also have windows for Paul if he can make it out :)

[tw0123]

just hope I can get the car done in time!
current check list:

re-install gauge pod
sway bars?
not too much to get done in 1 day is it?? lol... ya right!

[street_fire]

well i'll be going but i don't know what to take the truck or the car lol the tranny went in the truck last week but it's all fixed now. $2000 later lol I put the car back on the rd while the truck was in the shop and i haven't called and cancelled the car yet. Still might take the truck tho. Depending on my mood lol

[tw0123]

wow that's crazy man... i got the front brakes done, wheels on, and as i was torquing them down, i stripped the key for my locking nuts, and i started the car and the brakes went right to the floor... now comes the fun of trying to bleed them with the wheels on :(

[Mike The Canadian]

wow that's crazy man... i got the front brakes done, wheels on, and as i was torquing them down, i stripped the key for my locking nuts, and i started the car and the brakes went right to the floor... now comes the fun of trying to bleed them with the wheels on :(

Man dude... that friggen blows

[tw0123]

Lol you're telling me... never fails ... one step forward two steps back

and the hell continues... went to bleed the front lines again, had my neighbour (the mechanic) helping me this time, and here is how it went down:
him: pump, pump, pump hold...
me: done
him: pump, pump, pump hold...
me: k
him: it getting any stiffer?
me: nope :(
him: pump again...
gf: what was that?? (popping noise)
me: sounds like a drip somewhere...
gf: (looking by the rear wheel) yup...
him: well, there's your answer... just blew the rear brake line...
me: aww shit :( how much is this going to cost??

dammit all to hell... hopefully he can get to it in time to get it on the road for sunday...

[TdotAlero]

Oh man, that's some bad luck right there. I really hope you can make it before Sunday.
I'll be of course attending. Not too sure about timing though.

[tw0123]

oh I will still be there... even if i have to rock the rumblin mini van lol

[street_fire]

Shittty luck Tim!!! Hope u get her all fix up for Sunday...

[Shiwnath]

Wow that really sucks Tim.. I really want to see your other Alero too :(... Worst case scenario just tow it with your Van lol.. atleast we'll be able to look at it :P

[Shiwnath]

So!
Where: Hutch's on the Beach. Address: 280 Van Wagners Beach Road, Hamilton
When: Lunch time.. So do we all agree on 12 PM?

Is that what we agree on? I've read through the last couple pages and I wanna make sure I got everything right.

[tw0123]

Sounds about right... chill there for probably 1/2- 1 hr to make sure everyone gets there and head to Niagara around 1ish

[TdotAlero]

Last minute change of plans for me. I won't be able to make it this time :( just found out a change in schedule for the weekend, and due to me tring to obtain my A-Z license, I won't make it. Have fun everyone, take lots of pictures !

[tw0123]

aww man that sucks Pat... good for you trying to get your A-Z license, but bummer you can't make it...

well, good news for me, the brake lines got changed tonight, tomorrow is bleeding time... gotta get the interior put together to drive it up and hopefully everything is good for the drive!

[xXManwhoreXx]

2. there is another car show in oshawa i have semi committed to going to... it's a gm meet called motorama at the gm head quarters...
http://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/377302208957364/

sooo... i most likely will not make it to the bbq if it's held on june 17th :(

i love your car...

[tw0123]

^^ Thanks :) it has taken 6 years of ownership and a lot of good timing to get it where it is... and I still have plans for it :)

[MMGT1]

Well, let's figure this out guys. Let me know whats good for you and we'll make it happen. The nice weather is here and my BBQ is itchin' to crank out some good food!!

[tw0123]

I would say sometime in july... any objections?
Sorry for being a pain in the ass with dates... it's hard to plan so much stuff with only one day off :(

[TdotAlero]

June is busy for me with the Euro cup and capming trips. July should be good.

[tw0123]

well for july there is the 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th for sunday's... since Paul is hosting, I say it is his choice... hopefully we can all make it!
also, I would ask that we can all give him at least a week notice... it's only courteous!
anything you would like us to bring Paul?

[Mike The Canadian]

July the 4th! Hahaha I'll come!

[MMGT1]

I can try to make July 4th happen. Pretty sure it will be a good date for me guys

[MMGT1]

... oh, and bring an appitite lolololol

[Mike The Canadian]

haha the 4th is a Wednesday man :)
I'm just teasing you Canadians (I guess us Canadians).

Americans get the 4th (Wed) off... consequently I'm in America... d'oh :)

I'll try to make it there regardless of the date!

[MMGT1]

What would that weekend be then??... There we go, "Hows' a'boot da' 8th?" Sound good?

[tw0123]

should work for me... it's the daughter's b-day but we are doing a joint party for her and the lil man in a couple weeks, so no need to have a big bash again hahaha... why not a bbq and show!!

i would say pm those of us who are coming your address so it doesn't get plastered all over the interwebz...

[MMGT1]

July 8th, MMGT's BBQ Bash Weekend:

1. MMGT1
2. tw0123

Add to the list those that can make it. Closer to the date we'll hit on the particulars

[tw0123]

Lol how do you feel about doing a BBQ/tune at the same time

[MMGT1]

.... that may be a bit of a handful! If you wanted to come early we could get into it, but we need a few hours to go through everything. We could do an 8-12 on a tune then have the get together for noon and fire up the BBQ then. I think that could work!

[tw0123]

I'll talk to the wife... that would mean leaving at 5:30am lol... not sure i could even do that let alone the wife and kids hahaha... might be best to book another time for the tune lol... thanks though... i never really thought that through hahaha... we will get it done this summer somehow!!!

[Shiwnath]

Sadly I don't think I'll be able to make this one if it's on the 8th of July :(. I just found out yesterday that I gotta go to Toronto that day.

[Mike The Canadian]

I'll talk to the wife... that would mean leaving at 5:30am lol... not sure i could even do that let alone the wife and kids hahaha... might be best to book another time for the tune lol... thanks though... i never really thought that through hahaha... we will get it done this summer somehow!!!

We'll just let you drive my car if I can make it so you can pretend :lol:

[tw0123]

Just trying to confirm the date guys... summer is getting really booked up lol...

Is July 8th going to work or is there another date preferred? Please post up so we can tuis going :)

Thanks guys

[Mike The Canadian]

You folks let me know and I'll try to be back on whatever date you chose.
I'll let you touch my car, it's been to ASS haha

[MMGT1]

I can pretty much make any Sunday happen so Im up for anything! LOL

[tw0123]

Well Paul ... it's your place so you decide... whoever can make it great if not better be at the next meet lol :)

[MMGT1]

Cool then, the 8th it is... lol

[tw0123]

cool... i will be there... more than likely with the family in tow as always! :)

[MMGT1]

If we end up with just a few of us then we could tune it if you like. Maybe a little show and tell with the gang as to what I do and how its done. I'm sure many guys would like to see what actually goes down in a tuning session and I would be willing to give a open lecture as we go so to speak... lol

[tw0123]

That would be awesome... hope i can scrape some cash together for you to get it done :)

[Mike The Canadian]

I'm not sure whether I'll be on rotation or not, I'll do my best to make it though.

[MMGT1]

July the 8th for the BBQ it is guys. 12 noon @ 4872 Capri Cres, Burlington
If you need to contact me, the phone # is 905-979-5714!
Hope to see you all out. Family is welcome or anyone you'd like to invite. We'll fire up the BBQ around 1pm I'm guessing. If there are any special request, or allergies I need to be aware of, please let me know!

Paul :canada:

[tw0123]

I will be there after a short visit in Brantford with the grandparents... probably roll in around noon :)

anything you want us to bring? burgers, buns, condiments, beer???

[MMGT1]

We should be good for food. Maybe some chips or cheezies, but that is not necessary as I am sure we'll cover all the basics. If you would like to bring some beer that would be just fine with me!
Not getting much of a response to the BBQ thus far, so it may just be me you and Mike... lol If it is, you better come hungry. hahhaahaa

[Mike The Canadian]

Lol You're putting the pressure on for me to come back! :p
If my horrendous grind at 40 km/h bearing is fixed by then I'm probably coming :)

[tw0123]

Dude, take the If out of that statement, and just get it done!! hahaha... or just skip 40 km/h lol.. Paul's tune should help you accomplish that pretty quickly lol... I have seen your videos :P

[Mike The Canadian]

Dude, take the If out of that statement, and just get it done!! hahaha... or just skip 40 km/h lol.. Paul's tune should help you accomplish that pretty quickly lol... I have seen your videos :P

You mean the ones on a closed course right?

[tw0123]

Obviously... last time we drove together you barely kept up... that was pre-tune though

[Mike The Canadian]

Barely kept up? Ask Pat what he thought about my car and how it was sounding.

I'll meet you at the track pre-tune haha

[tw0123]

lol not a chance... you have the unfair advantage of a tune... we could go after Paul tunes mine though :p see what happens then? you should have a bit more flow with the 3500 upper then mine, and a hell of a lot less weight lol

[MMGT1]

Wicked... Im feelin' a track day coming real soon! lololol

[colonel6632]

my alero needs a tune more than you guys!!!

[tw0123]

my alero needs a tune more than you guys!!!

so come down for the meet and get a tune :lol: its only 24 hrs away hahaha...
in all seriousness, it would be great to have a canadian version of ass, but at the same time, if we can't coordinate a trip down there, good luck making one happen up here...

i am just glad there are a good group of the ontario owners that will commute to making these meets in the last couple summers... it has been a lot of fun for sure :)

[MMGT1]

Looks like the weekend is going to be great too guys! if the weather is what they say now it's going to be a really nice day to get together ;)

[MMGT1]

Any word guys on who can actually make it down tomorrow? Trying to plan what I need to get for the BBQ. I could pop out just before I guess and get what we need, but I'd like to do this today if at all possible

[tw0123]

I'm bringing the usual car load :) wife and 3 kids... we should be there around noon or shortly after!! Looking forward to a great day! Thanks Paul for hosting

[MMGT1]

I bought your credits for the tune last night so we are good to go in that respect as well bud....

[Mike The Canadian]

I'll be there, a bit late but I'll be making an appearance for sure!
I'm thinking 2 or 3 ish for me, but don't wait on food for me please!

We really ought to get some others... if I'm making an appearance from Michigan, ya'll better be making one from closer :)

To be fair I am coming from Toronto, but I'll be going back to Michigan!

I'll probably stick around a couple of hours and hit the road!

Super excited!

By the way Tim, be prepared... I put my 3100 UIM back on and the car is running much smoother... may smoke you yet :)

[tw0123]

had a blast yesterday... Paul, thank you for hosting and for tuning my car... all I can say is WOW what a difference!!! :)

[MMGT1]

Glad man! We still need to hook up and run my wideband to clean up your PE mode. You are within a % or 2 now, but want it to be right so you get the most out of your tune bud! Your Long Term Trims will settle in with a couple of hundred km's on it and we can finish it off whenever you would like... wink, wink

And Mike, now that you have that vac leak fixed, we need to give yours a quick once over and have you all buttoned up as well! ;)

[Mike The Canadian]

Yeah my car idles normal for the first time in years.. I've been fixing vac leaks since like 2010 haha

[Thewolf]

Sorry guys that I couldn't make this meet. As you may know, I'm in the process of moving to hamilton because I have to start school there in september. So I will be busy all this month looking for a place to live. But once I settle in and finally mod my alero, I'm down for a meet anywhere anytime lol.

[tw0123]

good to hear! hope the move goes well, and you can get settled quick!

speaking of the next meet... where and when??
Ross suggested an August meet near Windsor... I think it's pretty fair since they have come down for a few meets this way now...

[TdotAlero]

Sorry, I wasn't able to make it either. I had a family event that my daughter was a part of, so I couldn't miss it. Glad to hear you guys had another fun get together! As for the next meet hopefully I can make it. I know for a fact between Aug. 1 - 20 I cant because my parents are visiting. But anyway let me know the date and I will try to be there!

[MMGT1]

Tim is probably still full of BBQ.... he left with half a burger in hand and was trying to eat it on the drive home.... hahahahahahaa

[tw0123]

man... it was too good to leave behind!! i didn't eat right all day monday either... still full!!! hhahahaha... good times :) next time don't get the 4 lbs burgers... those things were huge!!

[street_fire]

Where's the party at??? lol it's 4:02 a.m and i'm bored lol

[tw0123]

Hahahaha leave it to the dodge boy to crash the party lol...
When are we meeting next? Ross suggested one down your way but that is all that has come from it so far... let's pick a Sunday and get another meet happening :)

[TdotAlero]

Wasaga Beach!! :D

[street_fire]

Hahahaha leave it to the dodge boy to crash the party lol...
When are we meeting next? Ross suggested one down your way but that is all that has come from it so far... let's pick a Sunday and get another meet happening :)

Ur just jealous cuz I got a bigger motor then u :D lol

I vote on Grand Bend. It has the beach and the drag strip.

[tw0123]

is the drag strip open on sunday? would we be able to get in for a couple passes maybe? that would be a fun meet... sit and chat and zip down the track a few times too :)

[street_fire]

Probably they are open. Call to make sure if we decided to go that route. It'll be nice to take couple passes down the strip.

[tw0123]

ya for sure it would be fun to zip down a couple times... not sure about leaving the 20's on for that though... ill post up close to 20 sec. pass hahahaha...

[Mike The Canadian]

Whats going on now? :p

[Alero779]

When is this trip?? I need to meet with all u guys again before the rims are taken off and the car looks crappy for winter lol

[RedRocket420]

We should all meet up somewhere near Scarbrough or somethin and go to Ertefa in a big group. Its every Thursday night in a massive parking lot, basically a giant car show/prty, everyone shoots the shit and looks at eachothers cars.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffSH8LswLvA i went to this meet, was pretty live ill tell yuh that.

[tw0123]

it's hard to do a week night meet for most of us, especially when we all travel to get to the meets... this is why we try to set stuff up on a sunday, when most of us are available... the current meet is being scheduled for either grand bend, or closer to windsor, as those area members have travelled this way 3-4 times already so to be fair, it is our turn to go closer to their end...

if you think it is too far, that's too bad, it is a great bunch of people that show up, families and all, so far has always been a great afternoon together!!!

[RedRocket420]

yah i hear yuh man, just an idea

[tw0123]

so guys... any more thoughts to another meet before it starts getting really cold again??

say: Sept. 30th
time: 12pm (like usual!)
place: Grand Bend?? any specific location?

[RedRocket420]

yah im in, Grand Bends a little far for me but i might be able to make it

[Alero779]

Hey guys, whats up? I'm thinking for the next meet something should be organized here in Windsor. I say this because myself and Ryan have travelled out of town a few times to get together for a meet lol. If we had it here we could meet up along the Detroit River then convoy over to a restrauant called Smoke&Spice. Let me know what you guys think about this, it would be for the Sept 30th meet.

Cheers
Rosscoe

[tw0123]

I'm game for a trip to Windsor :) it's only fair seeing as you guys have made a few trips to this end!

Ross and Ryan : if you guys can figure out a perfect spot to meet and post up a google map link for the rest of us that can follow that would be great :)

[Alero779]

So this is the website for the restraunt (Smoke & Spice).

http://www.smokenspice.com/contact.html

If everyone wanted to meet up at devonshire mall better of the 3 malls here in Windsor, it has better shopping if wives or girlfriends wanted to look around then we could convoy to Smoke and Spice for dinner or everyone could just meet there. Let me know what u guys are thinking.

[Alero779]

you know what guys nevermind the meet in Grand Bend is cool I'll just visit a friend in the London area.

[tw0123]

so... anyone other than ross, redrocket and i gonna show up?

[Mike The Canadian]

I may try depending on what my weekend looks like. Feels like every weekend involves me moving to a new place :p

[RedRocket420]

im game whenever but shit Windsors like 5 hrs away from me minimum

[tw0123]

Ya man it will be a great day of driving for sure but the guys a great to talk with for sure
plus nice cars in common make it just as fun :)

[tw0123]

ok... so we have a couple days to go guys... we need to nail a spot down for this meet...
options include:
Grand Bend- right on Lake Huron, good spot for a fall photo shoot
London- probably has a decent mall where the wives and kiddies can go and leave the boys to talk cars
Windsor- Smoke n Spice for a decent meal

Let's get this nailed down by Friday so we can be sure we are all on the same page... I really hope it is more than just 3 or 4 of us that are up for the drive as well...

[Alero779]

Hey Tim, that sounds pretty good man, cause I'd really be down for anything (location). It would be nice to get more then 3-4 cars out for sure. Let's figure this out guys so we can have an awesome meet!

[Alero779]

I'm thinking that we could meet in London since I'll be staying there already. Possibly meet up at Whit Oaks mall so the girlfriends or wives and kids have something to do while the guys all hang out. this is the address to get there.

[Alero779]

Well, I'm gonna message Ryan this afternoon and see what he's sayin. He told me that he is unsure if he can make it out. What time are you thinking of meeting up Tim. We should park in an unpopulated area of the parking lot. I hope more people on the forum see this and can make it out!!

[Alero779]

Ryan will most likely be making the trip as well.

[tw0123]

So MapQuest says about 3 1/2 hrs for me... anyone from Oshawa / Scarborough want to caravan down? Message me for cell info and we can figure out where to meet and what time

[Alero779]

Hey guys, so I'm in London already (Came up today lol). I checked out a possible meeting spot and there is an enclosed parking garage by Wal-Mart at White Oaks Mall. There is either that or Canadian tire that has a nice open lot. Hopefully u guys can make it out

these were taken before Ryan showed up, plus he didn't want any pictures taken of his grand am lol :)

[RedRocket420]

wow can't believe i misssed this! Tim those tail lights looks fu-ckin awesomeee

[Thewolf]

Sorry guys that I couldn't make it to the windsor meet. As I told you guys I moved into a new house in hamilton and that weekend we were still busy unpacking stuff lol, you should see our basement, maaaan! We don't know where to start unpacking lol.

Since it's getting colder each day and fall is already here, I was wondering when is our next meet?

(honestly, I don't want to see Tim with that extra huge large coffee cup in his hand again) LOL

[MMGT1]

We need something local soon. Maybe we could have one in east Oakville or West Mississauga that the local guys could hook up for a coffee and a little chit chat anyway... colder weather is going to force people inside soon so we should really do this guys!

[tw0123]

ok works for me... how bout this...

Date: Sunday October 28th
Place: TBA- west GTA
Time: noon-ish as usual!

Who's in:
tw0123

[TdotAlero]

Heyy I'm in Niagara falls that weekend :( Is there anyway we can schedule a different day so I can come too?

[tw0123]

after that would be pushing into November... I am ok with that, but I WILL have a XL coffee in hand!! lmao

[sleepyalero]

two, how or where did you get those tails?

[Mike The Canadian]

I should be back in town any time after the 19th or 26th I believe..

[RedRocket420]

im down for that, i move the 31st as well so ill be tight on time but ill definatley make an appearance, we meetin anywhere specific? Timmies or a resturant?

[Thewolf]

On a sidenote, Tim, your tails look great! they match your chrome rims just nicely. I think that you should do the chrome mesh grille mod next to match your tails and rims!

[Alero779]

Where is this next meet happening?? I'm pending because I'm getting a 2-way paging remote start system installed. :D

[TdotAlero]

Tbh any time in November would be good for me. I just have so much happening this October. Let me know the time and location and I will join you guys for fun times again :)

[tw0123]
