Mike said the same thing, and something about a larger camper for WGI 🙂

If you’re going to bring the family to Watkins Glen, let me know. Bing might bring the wife and kid and we have a few options for places to stay that would be family friendly. :tup:

And is Rost still in Germany?

I may be in for Watkins Glen (if I can get the weekend off and come up with a few bucks for it)…just for the record…my car is stock…it’s a 2004 Mazda Mazda6 V6. I am looking at doing some mods down the road. I’ll let you know soon if I can or not…hope you don’t mind a newbie coming along if I can. Oh, one question…if we go, where do the stickers go on the car? I’m kind of OCD about the body of my car and don’t put stickers on anything with paint…

- Stock cars are welcome :tup:
- n00bs are welcome :tup:
- Stickers go on the glass. Some people put them on the paint though - they’re vinyl and won’t cause any harm. :tup:

Alright everyone, due to reasons discussed in my posted link above this post, The Grand Prix Toronto is OUT.

And Drift Mania is IN! 🙂

Drift Mania ( [www.dmccdrift.com](http://www.dmccdrift.com) ) is the biggest, most popular, most attended and most diverse grassroots motorsport in Canada.

The event is at Downsview Park (an old airport) only a 20 minute drive from downtown Toronto. :tup:

We’re working on the costs right now, but we are DEFINITELY locked in to going! Expect it to run under $100.

They have an amateur series too… And there might be a few people you recognize on the track 😉
