A suggestion.....If it is raining and grey (like yesterday and today), what is the view to pospone it for next weekend...and hope for better weather. Just a thought.

Well, the weather is forecasted to be very nice, sunny and 20C. Let's hope it stays that way! I won't be able to make it if we switch it to any other weekend in May!See you Saturday!

Ah screw it!!!! If we can have a meet in the snow, we can have one in the rain....or even sunny weather. Why? Because we are CANADIAN!!!!!

I was going to wash the car today, but I saw the cloudy weather and decided that I will wait until tomorrow morning. If it rains, it will save me the time to clean!!! BUT, I will be there, camera and all.

Must have been the added drag from those big tires holding me back! (or maybe too many recollections of flashing lights in the mirrors...) Was great to see such a good turnout on such a soggy day. (and to have the next generation represented in the form of KaBoOm Jr.!)Looking forward to the posting of Big Red's pix.

Here are the awaited pictures you have all been waiting for!A much bigger turnout than last time. For all of you that showed up....thank you. It was great to see so many Vibe's at the same time. I am somewhat upset that no Matrix' showed up. Well, maybe they were afraid of the rain

Of course I am fast...what do you think I was going to do, sit on them without sharing? The best part of it is, that I didn't have to play with the license plates because it came out scrambled.

Good job on the picks RedMadBill: I don't think it was the tires, I think it is more along the lines that I'm a little crazy! lol

Hey,Had a great time, always fun to meet new people. KaBooM Jr. as Big_Red calls him, had a great time too. It would be great to get a few more people out next time. Maybe another meet in July?Later,

Our goals for the next meet (July sounds good by the way) should be to: 1. Get at least one colour of each Vibe that it comes out with. Meaning, we need a Neptune, Lava, Envy and maybe even a yellow (2004 colour); 2. To have a sunny and warm DAY!!!!!

Quote (VibeRater)>What'd you guys do?Hung around, talked Vibe, took pictures, sucked down coffee (apple juice for KaBoOm Jr.) and, at least for ZedTim and AtWork, made a Warp Speed pass across the top of Toronto on the way home...

It really looks cool though.HEY JERSEY PEOPLE, start sending me your e-mail addy's so we can show those Canadians how a Vibe meet up is supposed to be done! Just kidding. We love ya Canadians.

ATWORK: Do you realize that we were hitting 180 on the 401? I looked down had a bird looked in the rear view and you were right on my tail!

for me yes that is the normal crusing speed once out of Toronto but in toronto usually if I do that I get these little white specks in the mirror that have these little red moving things on the roof!

Quote>"Who is the one who does not respect the Ontario rule and haven't put his/her front licence plate???? j/k" (Sub-Vibe-R)It's like this, officer: Removing the front plate reduces aerodynamic turbulence and compensates for the added drag of the big tires, so I'm actually doing my part for global warming! (That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!)

Yup, and I would love to see you tell it to the judge the day you get fined for not having it on the front of the car

quote:Kyoto was international leaders meeting to discuss new rules for reducing harmful emissions and helping the earth. Our fellow Viber feels the front plate causes resistance and therefore causes the car to burn more fuel than car without front plate. Therefore by not having the front plate he uses less gas to get around and is helping save the planet. Its a stretch Thanks for clarifying. It was the Kyoto part that threw me off.
