Pleasure meeting all.
Some pics from the event...

Touchez was the only word that came to my mind. Provided a good laugh. The firestorm really stands out in the snow. Thanks forthe picture resizing link Andre

I'll have to make it out for the next one. It'll be interesting to see if anyone has mods to show off.

I would have to say from the shopping list FRSKen will be way ahead in the mods list. Roddy and Vignesh both had new exhausts installed. Slick and KingGeo were already sporting new dash cams Mike and myself both have a fair amount of cosmetic work being done before the next meet. Should be fun. Good group of guys.

Also early but start thinking about dates and a possible meet and drive event sometime this summer.

My thoughts so far.

Kingston meet with an invite going out to the Toronto guys
Montebello or Tremblant meet with the Montreal guys and girls, I want to see Silverdubs homemade turbo. I will email Trish07 and Silverdub as they are well represented in Montreal.
Meet in Ottawa and drive to Pembroke/ Petawawa driving the twisties on the way down. Have lunch at the army yacht club. Excellent spots for photos down there along the Ottawa river.

Nice pictures.
Nice mix of colors.

I've been so busy...sorry I've missed the meet and greet. Superbowl week-end's a marathon that I can't win.

If I'd been there with the Hot Lava there would've been even more color. I'm surprised to see that most of you guys are using your original rims for the winter. A friend of mine owns a performance shop and sells nice mags for 80$ to a 100$ each. Let me know if any of you are interested...

Busy or not I'd like to be at the next event.
Next time I'll try harder.

Thanks for the invite by the way.

No worries Lizzzard. There will be plenty more get togethers. The hot lava would have been a good addition to the photos. I think most of us are getting new summer rims and tires this spring and using the OEM's as our winter rims going forward.

I've had really good luck with the weather during the week of June 13th. I've been booking that one off work for 10 years, and only been rained on once. The weekend of June 8-9 or 15-16 might be a good date to start with...

bergyb · 02-06-2013, 07:27 PM

Excuse my laziness to look back in this thread. Have any of the Ottawa guys had experience with Optiguard/coat? Anyone care to their experiences? Who did you have do it? Worth the money? Did they do a great job? Etc. Thanks guys. Figured I'de ask here since its local. Cheers!

Hello, I have been lurking for a bit and just wanted to say lovely looking cars.

I test drove a FR-S back in the fall when I was car shopping and it ticked almost all the boxes. Lovely car it looks like a mini LFA. I'm in barrhaven and I haven't seen too many around yet.

Part of me is kicking myself for not getting one, but I suppose the grass is always greener.

It's cool to see that there is an active community in town.

Cheers,
