Jackal

I would also like one please.

Glad they arrived. I hope all was in order and you have what you need. I may have another odd part or two for the latches laying around. I'll keep my eyes peeled if you need them.

Looks great! I'm a week away from getting my beast back from the tuner, and am probably a month away from being on the road. I am so envious of you right now.

I have been a little disappointed with my tuner as of late. He has taken on a few higher paying jobs and pushed mine back several times. I have his word that my tune will be the next completed regardless of who walks through the door. I'm hoping this week I should be able to get her home.

My experience with good street tires for Auto cross was limited to the Dunlop Direzza Star Specs. I loved these tires on my WRX (3400 lbs) and was able to compete well in the SM class. Great advantage to these tires in the wet.

I haven't even done the process for my car in Alberta yet, but I remember being reffered to this site. http://locostusa.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=7012&hilit=ontario At a quick glance there appears to be some helpful info here. I hope it helps.

Here's some shots I took from my first Blat. Thanks for the warm welcome, and the great run. I had great fun, and can't wait to come out as a driver. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/nivaguy/FILE0069-1.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/nivaguy/IMG_1382.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/nivaguy/IMG_1397.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/nivaguy/IMG_1405.jpg

My thoughts go out to you. I lost my Mom six years ago Friday. It's tough, and takes time. My condolences.

We will be meeting you at the chain lakes intersection at 10:30am. I'll gather some phone numbers there.

So is it chain lakes turn off at 10:30, or Longview at 10:30? They aren't that far apart so the difference is only a few minutes, but the confusion could cost us a bit of time. Bill? Steve? Stew? Darren?

I called up Zach, and we are sorted to meet the group in Longview at 10:30 AM. Yay! My first Blat! Next year I'll be driving, I promise.

Here is a shot of the latches I have. I'm pretty sure they are the ones you need. I only have two of the hooks for the latches though. What parts are you looking for? http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/nivaguy/IMG_1364.jpg

I'm just posting here to ensure both the email group and this thread are on the same page. It was mentioned that there may be some room for passengers in a few cars. If I remember correctly there was one car with an open spot meeting in Bragg Creek at 9AM and another two cars with space meeting in Longview at approximately 10:30 AM. I can be at either of these points to tag along at the given times. I'd like to hitch a ride, but don't want to be a pain or take a seat that would otherwise be taken. If you know for sure there won't be a conflict over the remaining seat and wouldn't mind a tag along, let me know. Thanks.

I ask every year for a Se7en cake. So far no luck. That cake looks great, I'm sure it tasted great too.

My car will not be ready for this event either. I sure am getting tired of saying that, but at least I am making progress. I would be open to hitching a ride if there ends up being room for a passenger. I have a mini HD camera for taking videos and can offer my photography skills as well. (I use the term "skills" loosely)

Sorry for the delay. Yesterday I had to run to a different city to deal with a family pet emergency. I just got back and will pop by the garage tomorrow.

I got caught up tossing my old BBQ, buying a new one and then assembling and cooking in it today. I'll hit the garage tomorrow and gather them up.

Timing, timing, timing. I went to have a chat with the engine guys today actually. There are no timing marks on this motor (?), and as such some need to be made. I'm hoping to have it out of the shop next week, but then I have a few electrical issues to sort before sending it off for Inspection. I'm having serious doubts about enjoying my first drive in her this year. :nopity:

Let me check in the garage I rent tomorrow. I imagine that you are looking for replacement parts for the set you have. I know I don't have a full set, which is why I settled on other latches. I can post pics tomorrow. Mine will be from a 1999 Birkin.

Looked like a great day. I hope to be able to join the next blat as a passenger if nothing else. Am I hearing talks of a blat in a couple weeks?
