Hey instead of wondering how long it takes to get from Kennedy Commons to Mosport why don’t we all meet up at Kennedy Commons and then see who can make it from Kennedy Commons to Mosport in the least amount of time! Get my drift? 🙂

Oh come on guys don’t be hating. Jelousy is not a good thing. Just because I can do what ever speed I want with out having to worry about getting nailed is not a good reason for you guys act like that and saying I drive like an asshole and that I am an unsafe driver etc. Honestly I only use it when I need it and as far as safe driving goes, I am a very safe driver, I will not lie in my 10 years of driving there have been a few times that I thought Im toast but thank God I have always managed to stay safe. So come on guys don’t be negative about things because im sure if you guys had one you would put it to a use too. Okay now let’s not get off topic this thread is about Mosport this Sunday not my radar detector so my question still remains…Who is going?

Well even though I’m not going to DX this year, if I was, I would not be attending this convoy.

Time to setup a convoy in members section!

I’ll be going, but don’t think i’ll be able to join any convoy’s, i’m probably going to be in Peterborough the night before.

OT:  
When speeding, there are other things to be worried about besides getting "nailed’ by cops.

:werd: You right there are other things to worry about besides cops I totaly agree.

Hey Dre I see you joined [nissanclub.com](http://nissanclub.com) too. It’s a nice club with a lot of useful information and every one is friendly and helpful, I have been a member there for a while, the only crapy thing is that most the people are from USA and most the events are held there but I have met a few people from there because Im in USA very often and I have attended a few events. Nothing against this club I like this club and I have met a few people at Dr. Iks but it’s not a bad thing to be a member at other clubs, the more info the better…Anyway I hope to see a few 240’s at Mosport this sunday I wanted to get a few people together with some 240’s so we can all go together but I guess I will have to feel like a doink :oops: and tag along with my buddies in the MR2 club…how sad ☹ 4 MR2’s one Camaro and a 240sx. Anyway I hope it will be fun see you guys there.

I don’t condone driving unsafe (odviously)

but radar detectors are great as long as you don’t forget their purpose.

Their purpose? Give you advance warning of an odvious cash-grab radar trap. No sense getting a ticket for 120 on a 100 since it’s someone’s bad day …
