    Posted: 26 March 2010 at 5:56am



JUNE 5th 2010 Saturday

6:15am-6:45am
We will meet at the Tim Horton's just East of the Corner
of HWY 10 and 152nd Street in Surrey at that time we will
all check our FRS's Radio's and set all radios to channel
20. If you have spare radio's please bring them as it
would be nice to see a radio in every car. MAKE SURE YOU
HAVE GOOD BATTERIES. Most people grab coffee and a pop
while we look over the cars. VOX IS NOT PERMITTED ON THE
DRIVE. If your radio has VOX capability Please do not use
it. VOX is the Voice Activated portion of some Radios. It
might be great in the forest, but in a car on the highway
with cabin noise, and wind and stereos they have a
tendency to activate the
radio and lock out anyone else from talking.

6:45am we will leave and head for the border Crossing at
176th street.. Make sure to have your Passport with your
driver's license with you.

7:30am After we all clear customs we will regroup just
across the border at a gas station for those that wish to
fill
up with the cheaper American fuel. Then I-5 bound.

8:30am We will make one stop at a rest area about 1/2
way down, sorry I don't remember the exact address. Just
keep your eyes and ears open. After re-grouping at the
rest area, next stop Arlington, Look out Jet City here we
come.     

Once we arrive in Arlington

9:30am Arrive at Arlington
Take exit 206 and head east about 3-4 blocks to a Food
Mart there will be a grocery store where we can buy
picnic supplies. There will also be a car wash close at
hand.- Plan is for those that want to give their car a
quick scrub to do that first off. Then head for the
grocery store and get whatever they plan to bring.   Buy
anything you want specialty grilled IE steaks and sauces.
We will then caravan to the ultra light air field for the
actual picnic.

The picnic starts at 10am

We will depart Arlington at 5pm, with cleanup starting
at 4pm.

Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan.

That's your responsibility, buddy. 

So, you figure Gretchin is willing to oblige?

Pfft, Gretchin's been craving a good dance for a while now. She may be cranky in the morning, but she'll lighten up once she gets to stretch her legs and wake up.

And I think I signed up... I don't know, sign up tab showed up, I put my name/description in, and then hit the button for the tab again... I think it worked. I hope it worked.

In any case, mark me down for our own club is what I meant Patty. So they know to double up on food.

I better get my passport in order so I can go. I'd also like to drive the '84 (much better gas mileage than the GT), so I need to get that paperwork in order as well.

So many rules and regulations...

Will that be what it takes for Gretchin to reach highway speed?  Pray for a tail wind.

I decided to apply for an Enhanced BC Driver's License so that I could cross the border and attend this Fiero function for the first time.

Ten days later it arrived in the mail. Woohoo!

When I went to the Jet City Fieros website to register, I could see that Dave was the only WCF of BC club member listed.

As much as I like Dave, I'm hoping there's a few other club members who are seriously planning to attend.

Here's the link... Sign up!!!

At the link above, PLEASE PLEASE use the Sign Up page. This is so that the organizers can have a rough idea of how many people to plan for. There are MAPS, Video's, PICS and all sorts of cool stuff at the link.

Well, something's not kosher at their end then. Perhaps they've just neglected to update their webpage for awhile...

Sorry, I'm not going to be able to attend Arlington
this year and probably not the Pontiac Performance
event either. My Fiero is still bundled up in its winter
storage blanket and won't come out until the weather
gets warmer ... then I have some work to do on it.
Maybe it will be ready for next year.

I registered for Arlington end of March along with other I noted on sign in sheet. However today I note something is wrong with registration site, as my name along with others isn't noted nor can I access sight to re-register again.  I'M GOING AND LOOKING FORWARD TO THE DAY!!!!!!!

I emailed Steve Simpson at Jet City Fieros. He has now fixed the webpage.

If you've registered, you are now listed.

So far our club has the most members listed as going.
