Castrol is at the airport, so halfway to Calgary already. we need more boxsters there. mebbe paul can come in from Winnipeg too ...
Hmmm, that's a bit of a haul for a day of tracking but I'll bet that will be fun.

As an aside, I lived in Edmonton back in the '80's, you know, when they had a pro hockey team. Anyway I owned a 1978 FIAT X 1/9, a slow-as-molasses but slot-car-handling mid-engine targa-topped fun mobile. I joined the Edmonton Sports Car Club and despite owning a FIAT they let me stay. We used to do track days at the old Edmonton Speedway (is it even there anymore?) They were a real hoot! All hell bent for leather and me holding everybody up on the drag strip front straight. The decreasing radius corkscrew in the back was the only place my X 1/9 could out do just about anyone.

Fun times.
