I've got an event for all lower mainland, Vancouver Island and southern BC interior owners coming up on the May long weekend. I've copied it here from the posting on the events calendar. Email me with any questions (address below)
-----------------------------------
I'm looking for NSX owners who want to get together in the sunny Okanagan (Kelowna & Penticton BC) for one or all of the following days: May 19, 20 & 21
2007 marks the 51st annual running of the Knox Mtn Hill Climb in Kelowna (http://www.knoxmtnhillclimb.ca/). It runs for the whole weekend, but there are other things to do in the area. Read the details below the sign-up list. There is no financial commitment required. We will be spectators of course.
Sign Up List (6 is NOT a limit. If this fills up I will expand)
