Hi Randy... Sounds great! I was prepared to cancel the whole pre-meet, but now that you're on your way in from Oakville, I think we can proceed.

Were you planning on taking the 407 to Markham by any chance? Or is the 401 east ok by you?

Are most of you entering the concourse event in some way, or just driving over and parking in the visitors area?

If you're showing up in a jag, i encourage you to pay the $20 fee and "display" your car.

You can also compete in the other competition classes, but that $40+.

The event is fully registered and insured, so the $20 is good value.

Whilst I have been looking forward to the event, I doubt that I will travel there in the rain if it persists.

If I don't see you, for those that go, I hope you enjoy it

Sorry I missed the Starbuck's pre-meet and the British Car Day. I was driving down the 401 at Kitchener and began hydroplaning in the rain. Long story short... the XK8 is toast, we are OK. I hit the center barrier and spun around hitting all four corners of the car. I think the doors are the only straight sheet metal now. I've got a few bruises, and my passenger bumped his head but all in all we won the lottery. The car is replaceable.

Alfred... I'm very sorry to hear what happened, but glad there were no serious injuries, must have been a really unnerving experience... One of our other members, Rick with the XF, passed by the scene on his way in, and reported a spun-around XK on the 401... I suspected it may have been you and very sorry to hear it! The weather was just crazy yesterday!
