Yes this one counts! but boy you have just spent all day yesterday, in the morning teaching AutoSlalom, and then in the afternoon driving Autoslalom. Today you are going to get FTD! yes you can.

we do promise that here is a fast line through the course and that we have a new course layout for this event! and as always a few little surprises or prizes!

Are the surprises snow, and the prizes shovels? :-|

I was just going to say the only speed limit we would have to worry about will be the ones in our rule book, but I just re-checked and it's now 110km/hr 8O (...when did that change?)

Adam has secured the secondary fenced off lot towards the Harbour bridge for a secure paddock for both run groups which now allows us to use the entire inside lot for a course. Our club event the day before is most likely going to be the Regional course run backwards much like Slemon, but I have yet to confer with our solo director about this, as he's being some famous big shot mouth over in Belgium or something right now :roll:

As for prizes we are working on something really unprecedentedly big for our 50th anniversary, stay tuned 8)

Is your car not road legal, Alan?

It is road legal, however with an aggressive alignment, (even adjusted to the "street" setting) plus the fact that we would have to bring a support vehicle to carry the tires, tools, etc. it isn't going to happen for that journey. If the St John lot is clear on time then the trailer should be freed from its icy hold as well......

The Port has lit a fire under the city here too, as they are moving the snow around in the parking lot to get it to melt ...and they are going to provide the sweeping of the entire lot before our event :beerchug:

Taken from one of my fleet's dashcams yesterday:

It shows at least four payloaders moving snow around the lot before todays' rain to try and get it to melt quicker...

BTW when the http://www.cbc.ca/nb/webcam/webcam.html swings around you may get a glimpse of the progress being made?
