Another Cruise approaching for us in Alberta!! Don't have to drive a Speed to come along!! Great group of Mazda owners!!!
Alberta Nator Meet 2014 MazdaSpeedForums
Well here we go boys and girls, something thats been talked about for awhile now.
August 10 2014, Red Deer. Exact location in Red Deer to be decided.
Calgary folk will meet up at same location used for the cruise and then cruise up together.
Start Location:
Petrocanada (near COP, just off Trans-Canada Hwy)
8420 Bowfort Rd NW
Calgary, AB
Meet: 9:30 am and cruise out at 10:00 AM (give a extra 15 minutes if needed for any late folk)
Edmonton folk will meet up some where a little different then usual as meeting at UC first puts too many lights and chances to get broken up.
Start Location:
Gateway Park Visitor Centre (far left lane just south of Ellerslie rd.)
2404 Gateway Blvd. SW.
Edmonton, AB
Meet: 9:30 am and cruise out at 10:00 AM (give a extra 15 minutes if needed for any late folk)
Location for Edmonton might change due to construction.
As for an event or activity that will have to be decided. I have been looking in to doing a dyno for then but i can not promise it as of yet. With enough interest i am sure we can get one but again lets not get peoples hopes up. Also if there is not enough speed6's then getting a 4 wheel dyno might be out of the picture. If plans do go in the dyno direction it will not be for tuning just for some hp runs. I will be trying to get confirmation on the dyno with in the week, so any speed6's please confirm ASAP.
Usually big meets i would call ahead to set up a restaurant but given our numbers it would be easier to do a BBQ. We will need a couple people with BBQs(preferably portable) and a couple others to volunteer propane. It is BYOF(bring your own food) and those bringing either bbq or propane will be feed and not have to worry about food. So everyone make sure you have a little extra food to share.
Lets keep it civil as we do not need any unwanted attention. Keep speed and any "ricer fly by's" to a minimum. I dont want to be the bad guy and i know it will most likely happen. If it does happen and you get any extra attention be polite and dont throw any one under the bus. If any authority's do show up on location please no "ganging up" on them in a group. I will deal with it personally and only those asked will come with me at that time. It is unlikely that this will happen but this is just to protect us all just in-case.
Lets get together and have some fun. And hey if you have any little installs you want to do then, we can do a little parking lot install.
And if you want to bring +1 that isnt an issue or if a buddy wants to drive down as well they can. You dont have to be there in a speed or mazda, but if the dyno works then the MSF users get priority. Also if you or friend drives something different then expect a little harassment. We dont mean anything by it but there is some of us that will joke around a little. Again we will joke around don't take it personally or seriously.
