Hey Everyone,

I have seen at least one post about my all Carbon Fiber bodied RB26DETT 240SX on here in the past (HCI Magazine Jan 2005), and just thought Id make a post about my trip to Toronto this weekend...

I'm coming in on Saturday morning and staying til Sunday night...

Just curious is you guys meet anywhere, and if so, where? You are welcome to PM me if you dont feel comfortable posting it publicly...

Regards,

Chris Riggs

Try the Tim Hortons at 403 and Dundas. Look for a red ford festiva, and or a blue and grey mustang. If you show up there with that car, you'll have a crowd pretty quick.

Rent a Cars are great for burnouts. If you see the Fastiva, or the Mustang, just say hi. Fastiva is not a misprint. It'll almost beat your Vette.

What time do you all meet up?

We're glad to stop by and check out the scene..

In terms of the Vette, it runs 10.60s on the 150 shot....through the 1/4...

It makes 593rwhp on the 150 shot...

I am pushing it as far as I feel comfortable on stock bottom end, even though the motor has Stage 3 Head/Cam package..

I'll see you guys tonight...

Regards,

Riggs

Not sure what the fastiva is running this year. haven't seen any pics, and haven't made many races. I think he had it in the 12's last year. still 1.3l engine. I had a 12.3 sec rabbit, but now have a 1994 VR6 gti turbo build.

I doubt if you'll see any skylines, but there will be lots of rice. Just head out there anytime. Fred, the guy with the fastiva, is there a fair bit.

Lol...sounds good....

Are people going to be racing or just hanging out?

Also, where would you go to check out a few skylines? Are there any shops here that sell them?

There was a shop that supposedly was bringing some in, but I haven't heard ant truth to it. There are a couple of R32 GTR's around, but they are rarely seen. There is also at least one R33 GTR, but again, not too often. I'll warn you now, that if you show up and just start asking about where they race, you'll get dissed. They don't race much on the street, but it still goes on even with all the police attention.

I went out tonight, and it was pathetic to say the least...

Less than 10 cars out, all Honda's..., and nothing that resembled anything remotely fast...

Where are the Corvette's, Vipers, etc?

Any car over 500whp...?
