Hello all. I'm here to announce the 4th annual run to Corunna. Meeting at the ballpark in Lambeth at Saturday August 14at 1.00 p.m. We''ll depart at 1.30, cruise along some nice country roads and a very nice stretch along the St. Clair river to the home of Dave E Bouy and Sue B Do in Corunna for a BBQ. All food and drink (non-alcoholic) will be provided. We have a pool so those who would like to swim are more than welcome. We would love to have as many Fiero folks as possible so come one come all. Please chime in if you plan to attend so we know how much food we need. See you all then if not before. If you're not familiar with the Ballpark in London/Lambeth here's a mapquest link http://www.mapquest.com/map...3448&geocode=ADDRESS

I'll be there. Probably Ellen too. I should have the GT back on the road in a week or two. It sure has been inconvenient having it out of play.

Arn

Dave - got your email, I don't spent much time on the forum, always busy with street rods. But Sat the 14th sounds good and it's in my schedule. SOFA so good. Oscar.

Excellent guys. It would be nice to get a bunch of Fieros so tell your friends!

TTT

yup, we're in!

we may end up camping out in your backyard after suntanning, hydrating & all.

Are bikinis allowed? (Not 4 me, sorry D or S!!!)

Bathing suits are optional

(but not for you)

Brilliant news for me. I finally have my GT running correctly. All the bugs out of the true duals and it is running like a scared rabbit. Can't wait to show off my new stainless steel heat shields, and custom exhaust.

Arn

As the leader of the pack for this one I promise to behave. Look forward to havin you along Rich.

Dave

We're all on the same page here. No paper entanglements. BTW be sure to have your front license plate

Arn

Well after much deliberation with Rich (PFF-TheMadCow) over evening coffee.
I've been railroaded by him and and a female I associate with (lol) into attending this cruise with two stipulations for them.

1. Weather permitting (don't drive the Fiero in the rain)

2. Any excessive speeds above posted limits (within max 10kms) cause my Fiero to take the next right, and gps takes me home.

Call me a woosie if you will, but I enjoy my Fiero far to much to push her 25yr old body though the paces!
So count me in (weather permitting) for an enjoyable cruise with a seatcover on the seat beside me!

No worries Scott A nice leisurely tour through the countryside

PROBABLY AT around 11 am meet up time, depart approx 11;30 am to arrive at 1 ish at the ballpark...

yes, we may go over 100km/hr (or even 109!) on this stretch of the cruize down a hill...sheesh!
i'm sure these cars were built to withstand that velocity & some rain drops if properly maintained & Lothar keeps her top up

maybe some folks should just trailer it in an enclosure, lol.

see ya soon all & drive defensively.

I maintain you can have allot of fun under the allowed speed on a road. I think because there are different horsepower engines, that we just need to let the big dogs go to the front of the pack so they can let out the horses when they have a mind, and let those who take it easy pull up the rear.

I don't think anybody wants to maintain a high speed, and while you might get some "brisk acceleration" and some G-forces on the corners with the drivers who enjoy corners, nobody wants to set any records. This is a nice leisurely cruise through picturesque farm country.

Now with regard to the rain,,,,,,, there is a front coming in the afternoon, so we might end up driving home in rain, but hey, I don't mind.

Well that would be me ....I must be getting old. lol

...although, I hate to say it, but if its raining I doubt I'll go. ....car is maintained fine ...but I hate driving in the rain. Sucks the fun right out of a nice cruise. Half the time the "weather man" doesn't have a clue though, so I'll be checking out the radar in the morning. Crossing my fingers.

Thanks for the input and opinion ! Guess we're all entiled to our own opinions!
In that case I'm very content with my P***S size, and don't really have to prove anything to anyone! LOL
Looking oh so forward to a rainy day on Saturday so I can keep my car in it's trailer where it belongs! hahaha
Maybe I'll hit Canadian Tire if its raining, hear they got a sale on tacky auto stickers and accessories that can dress my Fiero up a little! lol
Looks like ya might be bringin up the rear of this cruise on your own Rich, unless you become a "More Spirited" driver.

Well according to the Detroit weather forecasts (I actually find these more accurate than anything Environment Canada puts out for our area) there's a 40% chance of T-Storms later in the evening but hey that makes a 60% chance of ideal cruising conditions. See you guys tomorrow.

Dave

weather looks udderly clear

gassed up and ready to roll.

Thanks Dave and Sue for a great time. Nice pool, nice eats, and even nicer people.

Thanks to Philbur for his generosity too.

Arn (and Ellen)

I 2nd that. Thanks very much for entertaining all of us. Great time. Really nice drive.


...edit to add a couple of pictures from the day.

Thank you Dave and Sue for being a great host/hostess. Love the cruise by the water.
Maybe next year we can all be part of the WAMBO show in Wallaceburg, then hit your place for the barbie.
Oscar.

Here's some other shots from different angles.

Thanks a bunch Dave & Sue. Fran & I had a " GREAT" time as usual with all our Fiero friends....see ya soon....Lothar

It was a great time Adam. Too bad you guys couldn't make it. OHNIKO has a few cruises left on his sched hopefully you can make it out for those,
