**Jay007** · 06-25-2007, 09:59 PM

Just wanted to post up here on the topic of this weekend plans... Im hearing that there are a few members coming down from Edmonton for a little meet and great Friday night in Calgary (possibly at the track for the street legals) and then maybe a cruise out to Banff Saturday afternoon...???

Anyone interested? We should arrange a time and place... track would be good for Friday night...

LMAO, So you posted it before AWD or I did

. Awesome COUNT ME IN, even though I was the one coming down. Thanks for posting it Jay007, we'll be rolling in around 7:30-8pm on Friday night. I'll call ya as we get close to Calgary.

I'm in for Friday as well, I work until 5, so it'll be easy to make it. I've been light duties and sore from these busted ribs for the past week and a half, so I'm looking forward to getting out. If you guys are leaving earlier in the day Saturday for the cruise to Banff, i could be in for that as well, I'll just get to the destination and continue on my way to BC!

Let me know! (Thanks for the PM regarding this too STS, really appreciate the invite!)

AWD mentioned HOOTERS for the M&G on Friday. I'm not sure where it is, but i'll test the NAV and see if it find it. I'm the worst with Calgary for directions, wooo hooo testing the NAV. I've got a couple friends from Calgary that will most likely hook up with me on the highway and show me the way. Besides i want to see this guys 700hp 98 Camaro and i'm sure he'll be the one driving.

Are there any more details yet? I just might come down for the fun of it.

Well we need to get together sooner or later, lol.. I still have a grille with your name on it if you want it. It would be cool to meet you this weekend if you can make it down.

C'mon AWD and STS, make a solid plan here eh? :P

I should be able to get out of town aroun 5 Friday. I'll bring down the money with me then.

How's that?

Well lets make it happen !!! Hooters at 8:30 - 9pm Friday night ! Well have to work out the other details later in the week. I don't know Calgary very well, so the meet location for Saturday i'll need some help. My only idea for that was to meet at a resturant on the TransCan near the edge of town.

I just got the call from the guy with the 700hp Camaro. Us Edmonton guys will most likely be greeted by a smoke show as we enter Calgary, he's gonna meet us on the side of the highway and guide us up to Hooters. I love a good smoke show.

Which Hooters? North or South?

South.

For out of towners that might miss being led in by STS' Camaro buddy, here are the directions:

From the north, the QE 2 becomes Deerfoot. Continue south until the Glenmore exit, then take Glenmore west. The third exit is MacLeod Trail. Take MacLeod north (to the right). On your right you'll pass an Acura dealership, a Mohawk gas station, and a large cowboy boot with headers and mag wheels (no, I'm not kidding). Hooter's is about a block or two past the cowboy boot, also on the right.

From the south, take Deerfoot north until the Glenmore West exit. If you've never taken this exit before you might think that you've made a mistake, as it becomes a surface street and doesn't immediately connect to Glenmore. Don't worry, it's correct. At the second set of lights (right after the new Mercedes dealership) turn right. This road will loop you around the Automall and merges with Glenmore westbound. After that follow the "from the north" directions above.

I'll try to be there at about 8PM. I'd like a rough idea of how many will show, so I know what size of table to hold.

**ExLx** · 06-26-2007, 11:47 AM

That big cowboy boot with the headers and mags was here in Edmonton a couple years back at the Western Boot Factory. I'm not sure if there is more than one but our's went missing, store went tits up. So anyhow the South Hooters awesome, buddy was asking which one. Thanks AWD, count me for 4 including the Camaro buddy.

**Jay007** · 06-26-2007, 02:10 PM

I may head to the track for an hour or so beforehand if anyone is interested in tagging along… (probably just as a spectator)
