Ya that is why I am hesitant in going! I work Saturdays

So we will have to see. If I don't get my bullydog programmer before Saturday I am going to hold off until its installed. I am getting my car sent to the dyno for before and after the upgrade so I can actually see the written difference!

Also I almost have enough saved for that spring kit... Maybe after the 15th I can do it!

On a side note, what do you guys think about that Van Island Poker Run? Anyone interested in joining me with their rides? Being on the island though I might debate about bringing my motorbike instead of the g37

Hey here is some info:

Total cost:
Diver and Car = $100.00
Passenger = $50.00

- this includes event, dinner

Other Possible Costs:
Ferry - If your coming from the mainland.
Accomodations - we will be staying up at the mountain overnight. The thing goes till about midnight or at least I have paid for bar service till midnight. It is possible however to do the dinner and awards and head back to Vic or Vancouver in the same evening. Nanaimo last ferry is 11:45. I have special pricing for rooms up at the Mountain so contact me for the information but the price range is $99 - $189, depending on what you want. There are also personal accomodations up there and you can find those on the Mt Washington Web site. I got an entire townhouse for $75.00 per night.
Raffle - We will have items to raffle off during the dinner. You purchase tickets for $5, $10, $25 and you can enter the draw for any items. Items tickets are based on the value of the item but no more than $25 for a ticket so for example last year trips to Las Vegas were $25 tickets. Case of Royal Purple $10 ticket and a t-shirt and hat $5 ticket.
Muligan Tickets - When you stop at a checkpoint and you pick a card that is no good to your hand, you can switch it for another but you must have a mulligan ticket to do so. You can buy up to 3 of them for $10.00 each.

Again all proceeds go to Camp Shawnigan so it is all good. Dinner was great last year as well.

Any more questions fire me a PM or an email at dave.donovan@elocas.com

Oh last year we had some pretty low NSX's from Vancouver and they made it..., just angle and ask for the top. You need to pre-register for this event so I can plan based on numbers. No money or commitment till about 2 months out so around late June early July.
