Haha, nice find Ian. Maybe you'll see him tooling around your countryside.

Yeah, I'm afraid!! Maybe one ride will be all it takes. Around here it would be a true fair weather car.

I figure it's a 3 cars in 1 & therefore very inexpensive
- no need for a bike
- a "real" sports fun car for weekends & fair weather drives to work. (assuming you can license it)
- & a track car too

...think she'll buy that????

Maybe we can buy a G35/BMW lightweight body kit and put it over the shell of the Atom and then nobody would notice the difference. I think that we should be able to fool our wives.

I think that if I could sell my car and my bike that I would seriously consider buying one of these things and become a weekend warrior at Mosport. My wife would never see me again, on weekends that is!

Maybe we could have a group buy set up.

I like that. I've been talking for years about getting another bike anyhow. And yes that would be a "real" sports car for track or street- if it's allowed just as you said.

No she won't buy it. Neither will mine.

Yup, as soon as I can find a 1/32 scale model.
Maybe even a RC Atom.

OK.... for you pit passers

...try to say that ^ 3 times quickly

As posted somewhere above....
It's $50 for the guest hospitality pkg.....
Pit pass, gourmet lunch, all day beverages... yada, yada, yada....


Just got this email from Mark.....
Hi Ian,
Great! Thanks for letting me know the confirmation on the 5th group member.

As for the extra guest……on the registration form there is a space to indicate if you would like to bring a guest.
Please check YES and scratch out where is says $150.00 and write $50.00.
The higher price is for a full day hospitality package.

The additional $50.00 can be paid on top of the registration fee….or a minimum of 10 days prior to the event date so that I can ensure we are prepared.

Thanks again. It should be a great day!
Mark Swain
Those needing a reg form drop me a PM with your email & I'll send it out.

thanks for the info... i've got a friend that might come. she's not sure yet though... because of it still being a month away. so i'm glad we have till 10 days prior to pay the 50$.

forgot to mention... if we've got some members in the stands... i'll bring my dslr and lend it to someone for picture taking. just don't drop it... or i'll have to drive into the pitt and run u over.

Sam (Whatacar)......are you planning on being in on the hospitality with us or just in the stands taking pics?
You know we'd love to have you along with activities and lunch etc, in which case you'll need a form to submit as Ian has indicated.

I'm home this afternoon/evening in case you should call......

Colin.
