That's sweet, but they need to add some individuality though. <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... rgreen.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':mrgreen:' />

Ok guys and gals I propose for the airport meet if everyone helps clean up after a massive convoy from the airport down the 427 to the Street Classics show. Route would be out the North Lounge exit onto Derry. Over to the 427 south on ramp straight down to the Queensway / Sherway Gardens ramp. Right turn to next lights and Right again on North Queen under the 427 just after the next lights right turn into Lowes parking lot here we would wait for anyone caught by lights and for camera to be positioned for video . Trucks would then drive down main road to bottom of show area and across the open driveway and up in front of Canadian Tire. Anyone wishing to do this I would request they speak to me at the airport so we can give some warning to George the boss for the Street Classics show. Just imagine 50+ Hummers in convoy on a major Highway hell 10 get noticed.



Note all turns are rights and we can reassemble any break ups in Lowes lot and we would circle the Classics section of the show and put on one of our own. Last year with 10 trucks and a trailer we caused the show boss to comment only the vetts put on such an entry (he still comments on it )

We could maybe do a obsticle pre check of the field and enter through there, like we did on the first one, parking just on the edge of the road. It would look good to see all the trucks lined up there all the way across and it wouiln't cause any parking issues with the rest of the show. We would have our own space for BBque 50/50 retail booths and displays.

The entrance through the field would look cool and give an oppourtunity for some stunts and we could put on a display of off road techniques using the field behind. Do a vehichle pull competetion. Lets say offer a 100buck prize for anyone who can win a pull against a Hummer with a 10 buck entry fee. At least you don't have to pay out ever.

Sorry to say the open field has been bought out and is signed no tresspassing and may at any time become a construction site so thats a no . Second you'd have to have the participants in a pull sign waviers and too many leagalities to mention ( Street Classics pays over a Million for insurance with help of their sponcers including Canadian Tire just to put on their show) Maybe a show of winching safety and abilities.



If show lots are full we would park in north end of Canadian Tire lot or even Lowes . If I can get a count to George early enough he said he would cone off an area for us. The entry I purposed would have our trucks actually circle the main show and allows for reassembly of convoy ( I purposely keep left turns and lights to a min. but some one always gets caught). I would separate with FRS radio and set up video camera and still cameras to get pictures and video to post here and U Tube





To Derek there are 12 Hummvees in that photo .We've had 10 in convoy with a trailer and if we get 50 in convoy we may even make the news.
