Datsun Driving Canby Fun 2011

[Bruce Palmer]

Weather update: The club is having it flown special for the occasion.

See you tomorrow.

Saturday update: The economy doesn't seem to have dampened the enthusiasm to go out and play. Today's turnout was phenominal, weather was great and parts vendors were more prevalent than I ever remember. The run for cash more than likely the reason for the huge parts displays.

Tomorrow looks to be the same......

I went over to Mike's place today to look with him at a fuel problem on the Yellow Jedi, think we're OK now. So Mike, me and Clint/Vickie will be driving up early tomorrow morning to meet with the people coming down from Portland. See you then...

I was going to make it today but had something come up. I will be there tomorrow though. I hope the turnout is as good as today's apparently was.

Good times, good cars, great people. Great weather until I got about 15 miles from home when the rain started.

Didn't take hardly any pictures this year. As this is my 6th year there, I've pretty much taken pictures of all these cars before. I even joked about reposting some pictures from a prior year, it'd be hard to catch.

Did see one car that was different though - a 240Z with a 3.2 liter BMW S54 ('96-99 M3) and matching 5 speed in it. It actually fit quite nicely, no butchery required.

About 10 minutes after the awards were finished maybe 12 rain drops splashed down so we can say if rained. Again a great turnout and someone did a vehivle count about mid day with 156 vehicles on site.....

that was actually a 260 but it was damn nice. I would have put an e46 2001-2005 m3 engine but ohwell. I couldnt even drive my car there, I was bummed out because im having issues with the tire rubbbing on the strut perch.

Great seeing everybody today. Thank you Bruce, I spoke with Dave and we worked it out. I sold 1 DZ-Start kit, a Parking light kit, a ZXP and Sidemarker kit but most importantly, handed out a lot of cards and Upgrade info packets.

A BIG Thanks to that warm globe type thing that stuck around long enough for a great show with only a few drops of liquid sunshine during the whole event.

Sure, it rained a little on the way home but was sunny when I got home to Marysville. Could have done without all the traffic jams on the way though.

This guys going to bed.

That would be Ron Tyler's car. I'm still hoping to get a ride in it one of these days!
