Royal City Show ’n Shine

Hi All,

Well, I will say that not only did we all have fun that attended and visited (Kerstin, Tristan, Nigel & Dave), we certainly gave allot of people (estimated 3000 people) a whole new awareness of our cars...or let's say "Sparked" allot of people.

I am sure glad I had a few business cards, we had I would say 4-6 new member potentials, those who came up and said "I have this Fiero:)" and love it, never knew about WCFC, etc...was nice:).

I think the one querstion than won most points was "What's that scoop on the side of your car?:)"...ya, Blair and I have the FS scoop, then we pointed them to Jay's '87 that was stock...was funny.

This is a show I feel we should be part of, the interest is in our cars, the awareness, and respect was great, can imagine if John Carlos had his car here...lol.

There is a link below, enjoy, and hope we can attend as a club like the Honda Civic's (10 cars grouped, and collector plates!), and the British Club (Almost the same # of cars)...nice site:)

 

 

Hey Guys (Blair & Jay), and who ever else joins us:),

Sorry I didn't make the meeting, my upolstery is drying off.  In know Blair & Jay are going to the meeting, hope the encourage a few other memebers to join us tomorrow.  Since we have already pre-registered, you can still register onsite, but we are meeting at my place and leaving by 8am so we can get in line together and get some good spots...meet us and this way when we go down we can tell them how many cars there are.

My address is:

65 First Street, New West, V3L 5K9...buzzer #33 or call me and I'll flag you down outside...below is a web link to Google Maps...see you in the morning, going to be up to 37:).

Hey Brian... I got the GT done. Killed my back but no water leak. There was a block heater in there that had blown out. Rubber was all cracked and old in it. I put in a REAL frost plug. Thanks for the offer. If you want to work indoors out of the heat Friday or Saturday, let me know. I'll open the shop. Coolest shop in the complex.

Brian... I just had a major coolant loss last night. Looks to be coming from above or behind the altinater. Thinking maybe a frost plug if there is one up there somewhere. Water runs out just about as fast I can put it in. Thinking this will put me out of the Show. Might be more than I can handle with the recent Surgery and all.

 

Hey folks.

This is looking like a great venue. Registration is cheap at 20 bucks. There are a good selection of classes to enter. We chose Domestic Sport which includes Kits. Might be a bit tough as it will mean we go against Corvette and Cobra but I think it will be fun none the less and a great exerience. Do we have any signage to show who we are representing?

Hey Jay,

I will be in Langley on Saturday meetiing up with a guy who is a steering rack genius and could drop by and see where you are at and see how I can help.  I know where you are at with your back, I have 3 herniated disks..and I am 4 block from the Quay, call me at 778-836-4806 and we can chat if you like.

Cheers

Hey Jay,

What ever car you would like to show man...I have seen both of your cars and they are nice.  I will be planning to detail my car on Friday and Saturday with the intent to join the activities on Saturday with the show...which mean I may not make the club meeting:(.

opppps.... thought you were a notch back....lol. Well either the GT or the gold SE. See what you think Brian.

I usually go to look at the cars.  Hey...that's next week already.

Hey everyone,

We have spoken about entering our cars into the New Westminster Show 'n Shine for a few years now and this year...I am going in, who's with me?...next weekend on July 14th & 15th.  It's $20 for both days and $10 for the poker run, since we are walking distance from our place, we can plan to have a BBQ even after, lots of parking available...or have our place as a rest area (or drinking) if we wish.
