I’d like to thank everyone who came out and participated in the Fall tour, thanks to the participation of all the local clubs it was a great success. We had well over 500 cars and I’ve received a lot of positive feedback. I have to check but it appears we raised a fair amount of money for MADD.

All in all I couldn’t be happier. I’ve posted my pictures of the event so far at http://media.c7performance.com/index.php?folder=/Signature/2006/FallTour/ if you have any pictures of the event I would REALLY appreciate if you upload them at http://www.vignando.com/upload/progress.asp just put them all into a zip file (or any type of compressed document such as cab, rar, ace etc. I pm me if you don’t know how and I can help you do this) and I can host all the pictures with full sized resolution that you can remote link to all your friends!

Pasmag also had very positive feedback about how great the event was and of course it wouldn’t have been possible to have the event with the help of Mega Auto Collision and Audio Heaven.

Awesome event. Thank you to those who made this event enjoyable. Great turnout for sure! I am glad to see that everyone was courteous of others on the road as well.

Thank you to all who donated, your generousity was much appreciated. On behalf of MADD, thank you.

Cannot wait for the next fall tour. I am sure it will be bigger and better :D Hope to see you all there again, and many more.

Congrats guys. Sorry I couldn't make it out,I had an extremely busy day.

You got lucky with the weather today,because we've had snow since Wednesday here and this morning was the first day it cleared up.

Hopefully I can roll next year with you when my truck is finished.

It was great meeting new people out today! (Even if part of the 1st group got a little lost! :oops: )

A little chilly but a lot better than snow! I was almost afraid that I would have to change into snows before the event. Seemed like the only one prepared for that was Syn! :D

Thanks to all organizers and supporters of this event! Here's hoping for next year! :2thumb:

We had a great time, I just woke up! Got home at 5:30 and passed out until about 9.

Well organized and thanks to all those people that had patience at the start point. It's alot of cars to get through but for the most part it moved along smoothly.

Thanks.

I had an absolute blast.
So many hours of driving, but it was well worth it, and for a good cause aswell.

It was nice meeting some of you guys and I hope to see some of you guys out at our meets aswell.

Anyways, props to the co-ordinators and of course to all who came.

I hit a patch of black ice and spun out cracked the lip and did some more serious damage. I'm cursed it seems in attending your cruise every year lol. See you next yea hopefully..

i think this year will bring the momentum back for next year!
i had a blast, you moved all those cars out of the starting point flawlessly which is quite the task to undertake...

so once again, on behalf of the TM3 guys, thanks to c7, PAS, Mega Auto Collision and Audio Heaven

only 365 days to go!!!

10-16-2006, 12:41 AM

Well C7..Ya did it again!!!!

Congrats & Props to a well planned event!

First of all, I would very much like to thank on behalf of myself and my fiance, that today was a blast. Alot of cars showed up, and even with the assistance from Mr. Nageli from KCE, the C7 Crew( Piotrov, Brandon & Lyla, and the other oganizers) a whopping big thank-you to help make this event a even more greater success than 2004. I guess it keeps gettin' better & better, each year!

Brandon - TYVM for the Pre-run Mug shot..I'll get the pics loaded asap.

Lyla -

Well, Not sure how much we donated..but every little bit counts! :2thumb:

BABY GIRL ALSO SAID: "Cannot wait for the next fall tour. I am sure it will be bigger and better Hope to see you all there again, and many more."

Uhm..Cannot wait??? Well I can't wait for our Spring Thing first.... You know what it is!!! <LOL>

and finally...Thanks to PAS...I believe I got a business card from one of you guys. Once I find it, I'll get back to ya. Thanks for the 2 yr subscript!!!Ty to Audiohaven and Mega Auto Collision! Next time...Bring more Potties!!! <LOL>
:thumbup:

Overall, I'm really glad everyone decided not to go to chruch today, and attended this event. This was annual car event could not be missed. :nono:

The run was fantastic!! Different types of scenery this year, even though the Forks were closed. But as a added delight the Caladon Badlands were such a site to see. Got some good pics as we backtracked after we left Hockley. Give us a couple of days the pics will be up.

I'm not sure what else is to be said, other than I stopped to have nice dinner with a the most gracious host and his wonderful family, props Saj!!!! :2thumb:

We arrived back home at 11:45 p.m....Kinda forgot how much driving I done today...*yawn*....and now I shall retire to bed...:bow:
NEONRACER says: " I LOVE MY BED, I LOVE MY BED!!!"

P.S .If I forgot...Lyla, Sorry I didn;t get time to chat it up, maybe next time soon, There is E-mail! ALso..Everything was smooth, I ran into Darryl at the Commons. It was decided right there, that myself and Saj would ride in with my Hometown Boyz of Good Ol' Peterpatch!! Thanks KCE!!!!!

Thanks John,
it seems alot of people roll under sometimes one or more club names... makes it difficult to choose sometimes when joining an event. Sure I am president of KCE and C7 partners with us in the Spring for our shared annual kick off event. But I was lucky enough to join C7Performance almost a full 3 years ago. They are what inspired me to start a car community in the Peterborough area. C7 is a great club with a huge amount of talented members and fantastic vehicles but to me they have always been about the people first.

KCE - Kawartha Car Enthusiasts was formed on the same principles and so far it seems to be working.

Todays event was AMAZ-ZA-ZING but any assistance from me was as a proud C7Performance member.

I am certain all the clubs today felt great to be a part of another C7 Signature event, KCE was happy to attend. :2thumb:

TRDfrankie we have a different event in the spring .. its more of a racing event we call the poker run. Its a driving event, almost like a scavenger hunt type event.

Just wanted to say thanks from myself and the rest of TOprotege.com, another great Fall Tour. Myself, I was very impressed by the route. I was worried, since the Froks of the Credit is closed for construction, but was delightfully surprised.

10-16-2006, 03:22 PM

Awesome day everybody. No rain, a little cooler but not winter weather that's for sure. The route was great and it was easily followed. I didn't find out about this before the pre-run so I didn't have a chance to check it out before Sunday. I led the group and I don't believe anybody got lost.

Good seeing a few familiar faces but I didn't see as many as previous years unless everybody was hiding. I met a few new people as well.

Good job on the roll-out Darryl, flawless. Brendan you will have to take up voice projecting lessons for next year or bring a megaphone.

Sorry I couldn't stay around to the end but a few of us had another meet planned for the same day. Did I miss anything after we left????

It was a great day and see you all next year.

I would have posted this yesterday but when I got home at 8:30pm, I passed out and didn't wake up till this morning :giggle: .....

I am glad to see that everyone had a great time! Nice to see that.

John - no worries on not chatting. As you are sure I was quite busy. And no worries, my group of friends will be participating again at the Poker Run. I am going for 1st place now! Look out John hehe :D

Darryl - thank you so very much for your help with the assembly of the groups to be sent to Charles and myself. You did a fantastic job!

Once again, thank you to everyone who came out.

It was very nice! Except that we lose the group at the beginning because of the red Light. We made the tour with only 3 Celica,...Andrew's one...another silver celica, mine and the Scion XB of a guy from Trois-Riviere in Quebec. It was well organised and i would like to say BRAVO to all of you who organised this event... Brandon, Lyla, Charles, Andrew, Pete and the others that i dont know!

We had a great week-end in toronto!

Hope that next year we will be more from Quebec!!

Quote from site: Northern Ontario offers beautiful scenery in the Fall, it wasn’t a surprise that nearly 500 enthusiasts showed up to go for a Sunday drive worth remembering. The fourth Fall Tour was an enjoyable, low-key celebration of the end of the sport compact season.

Should this not read Southern Ontario? I wish we were driving in Northern Ontario.

And technically we were north from our starting point as Orangeville is north of Toronto. However, we were not far north into Ontario.

Scotty and Bubba21 - as per your question, the final count was at 508 :D Which was pretty awesome! I am sure next year will be much bigger :)

lol,I don't blame him for the error of saying Northern Ontario. Once you get up and over Caledon mountain,it turns into a completely different world,especially in the winter. Even though it's only an hour north of the GTA,it is still very much so Southern Ontario,even though it feels like the boonies!

Figured I'd just chirp in since I don't live very far from Hockley. We are in a very brutal spot for winter though. We usually get socked with 3 feet of snow and blizzards while it's sunny and 5 degrees in Toronto in the middle of January. This is definetly 4x4 territory in the winter.

Can't wait to pick up the next issue of PAS to see the article. Unfortunately I wasn't able to attend this year,I had previous engagements for the day. I'll be out in full force with my truck next year!

I am going to put together a video when I find the time, just too busy at the moment. It won't be anything great like Andrews in 2004, most was shot from my passengers etc. We will see...

If you want me to email you when I have it up or if anyone else wants to know then just send me your email address to admin@kawarthacarevents.com just email and say add me to the vid list.

Until then!
