It was fracking amazing! Like I dont know 30-40 cars. I was pissed that no one followed the let the people behind you catch up rule, I was leading our last section a good while boosting like crazy tring to catch up. No amazing times I remember, Just alot of fun meeting everyone.
And a crazy vette took a run and its targa roof flew off. Same vette I followed half the way there lol.
Leaving was more fun and relaxed. like a train of ten or more of us, but they all went to the bar and I came home. There may be some bar stories later on... That's an awesome turn out! How many people ran the 1/4 ?

Courtesy of the g/f Steph. Note for those who didnt make it, there was about 8? Or so in, and more around the bend, waiting to turn left in! What a day. Just so everyone knows, my shifter linkage broke 1st run. Zip tied it 2nd run, it kinda held, but boost controller was not controlling, then 3rd run zip tie broke lol. Definatly looking forward to going back soon.

That was a clusterfack!! Not only did no one know where we were going, I got a ticket, and I wasn't speeding. Then no one raced. We could have all met up at yorkdale and stayed there.
It was nice to meet you guys tho.
Please someone help those two guy that WERE racing learn how to stage. PALEEEZ

for speeding. But he was using radar not laser, so any one of the cars behind me or coming the opposite way could have been speeding. I know I wasn't tho. I just happened to be in front.

Great turn out guys! I think we had 30ish cars at Cayuga. The only thing that did not turn out so great was the actual cruise. The people at the front of the cruise should have waited for the other cars who got stuck at lights etc. This led to the "cruise" being divided into small groups and some of us had no idea where we were going but in the end, we all made it through. That being said, can we organize the next cruise a little better as far as roads are concerned and choose the roads with the least amount of lights? lol In general it was great tho. I had a lot of fun, it was nice meeting a lot of you in person. Looking forward to the next one.
I'll upload pictures later.

I could not believe no one else brought walkie talkies. That was the bread and butter of the cruise to the DSM shootout.
I loved seeing the AWD vert. Good job PPG. What was your best run? Why was there no peckerhead racing? I saw Steve.

General Rule of Thumb in a cruise/convoy: Every person takes care of the guy behind him/her.
This way, nobody gets messed up.

That was a great way to start my DSM season after a 14 month break! Wrenching into the weekend to get the car ready, 4 hours sleep, add oil and water and it's ON. Yeah that's why I didn't race Sorry I couldn't meet up for the first two legs of the cruise. Somehow I still beat the convoy to Mud St! (starting from Appleby/Britannia @ ~10:30) I guess we'll have to leave 30 minutes of buffer time per stop, have less stops, streets with less lights (bottom of Guelph Line might not have been the best choice), rear view discipline and FRS radios. Hey, don't kill the map messenger man Anyone else get a sunburn? //edit Oh yeah and thanks to all those who made it out, for great proof that DSM Canada is still alive!
