Question St.Catharines/K/W/London/Cambridge/Guelph/Hamilton ?!

Hey all. I just bought a Diamond Grey 2009 rx8. Looking to meet up with some more experienced people for some life lessons, cruises, good times, parts... etc.

I live in Cambridge/K/W area but I drive frequently all around there. My girlfriend lives in St.Catharines so I am there quite often too and anywhere along the way (Guelph/Hamilton/Burlington etc.)

London and Waterloo And Kitchener and Cambridge are all like 15-20 minutes apart.

Just doing a role call!

You'll love the 8. It's an awesome car. I've got a Titanium gray 2004 that you'll possibly see around KW.
Here's a great link:

Mazmart is a great source for parts.
And I can help you out with Brake Pads when you're in the market for them.

Theirs a huge Spring Meet Usually in May and a fall Meet In September/October. It happens every year and the turnout is amazing. Its in a neutral location for everyone and located in Woodbridge/Vaughn Ontario. Its about an hour drive from Hamilton and maybe an hour and half from London/Guelph. Maybe less depending on your speed

Either way, try and come out. Its great for meeting more experienced people for some life lessons, cruises, good times, parts... etc.

You can expect the meet posting to be up sometime in April - May 2015. Stay Warm!

Cheers

I'm currently in Waterloo - the 8 is away until the spring meet...plus I have big plans that I will hopefully complete before the spring meet.
But if you do have the chance I urge you to book time off for the spring meet. If you have any questions and you are a new member feel free to ask the forum or PM me directly.
I'll be in a 2005 WWP with black enkei rims...and some boost. But for now a sexy 95 civic in green/rust.
