SupraFest 2006...

[Suprastic]

...Is this happening this year, and is there any visions on dates if it does. I'd love to come out next year since I couldn't make it this year.

[Loki]

I haven't heard any talk about it since I left last years :dunno:

[kwnate]

I'll be there, one of you canucks make it happen :)

[Loki]

I'll be there, one of you canucks make it happen :)


I have to make sure Clinton comes out to this one, we can get a pic of the 3 different blues, the 2 gay ones and then mine :love:

I will try and find out some more info about SF, see if there has been any planning yet or not. It might get merged with the PacNW Nationals, but I'm not sure about that yet. There was a little bit of talk about that at the past SF.

[Suprastic]

Cool. Im coming anyways. Hope you guys like Rye.:naughty:

[Loki]

How many of us could have used one of those last year?:weak:


Yes some trailers would have come in handy last year :ugh:

[NecroCyde]

i hope to be coming, it really should be kelowna not vancouver, it goes like this:

hot beaches with hot girls or a racing speedway........i say its obvious, ha ha

[lintlars]

Im confused is it in Van this year or Kelowna??

[Jayhall]

OK, either you have a BHG or something very special you don't want to share. cough up. caugh... cough.. cough:naughty:
right now there is nothing wrong, but something will go wrong, its my luck, you see, i have none, so even if i drive up there in my car, im still getting the truck and trailer up there somehow

[garagefujimoto]

Black sawblades rock, and how did you get 5 out of 4+2.......

Well there actually might be 7 now not 6 or 5. Everyday more Supras' pop up

So far:

Necrocyde 1JZ A/T
Joe MA70 1JZ
Some Kid JZA70
Jamie JZA70
John GA70 1jz from last year
Stanzaspeed JZA70 ( if he buys it :biglaugh: :love:)
Me JZA70 2JZ woot :aigo:

[Stanzaspeed]

Stanzaspeed JZA70 ( if he buys it :biglaugh: :love:)

shhh... :hsugh:

[NecroCyde]

buy it.....heh, so..john, yah got my downpipe pictures?

[garagefujimoto]

Sorry Wade...John's buddy up north there just got a 1JZ Supra from a company in BC. Neither one of us gets the DP as it is too much to ship such a heavy and bulkyitem. He sold it locally. Have your friend in Brooks whip one up for you, they are super simple.

[Loki]

Clay, I'm not sure if it'll be in Van or Kelowna yet. Hopefully we will hear something soon.

Evan, sounds like a good showing is coming out from over there. Can't wait to see the cars :bigthumb:

[NecroCyde]

blasphemy! greyhound could have it here for 30 bucks or less......

[WeDgE]

I will try to be there...7M styles... :D

[NecroCyde]

^^WHOA! another dawg from LA? (lethbridge area, lol) what year of supra do you have wedge?

[BoostnLoose]

yea me and about4 other proud 7m owners will probly be coming.

[WeDgE]

^^WHOA! another dawg from LA? (lethbridge area, lol) what year of supra do you have wedge?

'87... :D

[Stanzaspeed]

'87... :D

colour? do you commute between Ft Mac and lethbridge? Im a Ft. Mcmurray local myself. just wonderin if ive seen you around.

[NecroCyde]

ahhhh, i see, well wedge we should probably meet up sometime, perhaps even evan could get his ass near his cell phone some time so it would be possible to actually contact him to do such things as well....:D

speaking of which, come on evan, i know you like money and you know i like that momo steering wheel, i can't buy something that i cant see.....

[garagefujimoto]

Sorry Wade, i was out of town to visit my grandpa, who had a stroke. I apologize that i left my telephone at home and was not able to show you a steering wheel. I will be back shortly.

[NecroCyde]

oh shit! sorry evan i didnt realize, best wishes, i hope your grandpa is alright, my grandpa had colon cancer once, which he thankfully got over, tough ole bastard, he he. yes anyway dont worry about that, i hope your grandpa gets well.

are you going to be back tomorrow? let me know. thanks

[WeDgE]

colour? do you commute between Ft Mac and lethbridge? Im a Ft. Mcmurray local myself. just wonderin if ive seen you around.

Black

Purchased the car ~1.5 months ago (hasn't been to Fort Mac yet, but will be there this summer)

No, I don't commute per-say, I'm just in Lethbridge for school and go back to Fort Mac for holidays. :)

[Stanzaspeed]

i take it you lived here before leaving to go to school?

whats yer last name i might have heard of ya before. its a long shot but you never know :biglaugh:

[becauseican]

i hope to be coming, it really should be kelowna not vancouver, it goes like this:

hot beaches with hot girls or a racing speedway........i say its obvious, ha ha


Vancouver has some really nice beaches too. Kits beach, Spanish banks, First and Second beach, all within about 5 min from down town. Also some nice lakes about 30 min away like Buntzen, White pine.

Anyways, nobody went to the beach last year in Kelowna, we were to busy with the cars.

Whoever is doing the planing should get on this soon, before you know it it will be summer. I would offer some planning help, but I am already working 6 days a week 10-12 hours a day getting my new shop going, so I dont have any spare time. I thought Duane and Seamus were going to get the ball rolling on this?

[smupra]

Im not sure whos gonna organize this one... someone should get suprafest.ca back up in running... it was a good thing last year...

[garagefujimoto]

Hot beaches with hot girls or a racing speedway........i say its obvious, ha ha

Yes, obvious that Wade will get turned down by every girl on the beach and that the racetrack was the better idea...:naughty: :biglaugh: :evil2: :aigo:

[NecroCyde]

^
wow, that was uncalled for, dont try pushing the bad reactions you got on me....LOL

its obvious thats what happened with evan last year, rofl.

regardless, it just seems like kelowna would work better for everyone who would want come east of the mountains, i can see why everyone in vancouver would want it in vancouver, little travelling involved, thats natural, however im not saying it should be in calgary or lethbridge or anything silly like that, kelowna is centralized for everyone and its been plenty successful in the past years it was held there.

[meagainstheworld]

It's my first year in K-Town, and I'd love it to be out here. Chalk up another Kelowna vote.

[soup]

Anyways, nobody went to the beach last year in Kelowna, we were to busy with the cars.

There wasn't even a beach where we had the show. That park near the bridge was the shizzle.

I think they whole idea of having it in Vancouver this year was to incorporate it with the Pacific North West meet. I as well heard rumor about Duane and Seamus hitting this up. I guess we'll wait for them to chime in.

[upgradedsupra]

I haven't posted anything yet as my self and Seamus are working on dates right now. I am also working on the track (Mission) and Seamus is working on stuff as well. We have some plans but until dates are finalized we will not post anything.
The meet will be in Vancouver and is to try and get as many people as possible this year. We want this meet to be the biggest yet.

I will post up info once we get everything sorted. We didn't just start doing things but was thought of months ago. (in case you guys were having a panic attack.) :naughty:

Duane

[GrimJack]

No panic attacks - but dates would help a lot by now, there's a fair number of people that are going to need to book vacation time and / or hotel rooms, and the earlier they know when and where the better off they will be.

PS: I might be able to get you a contact name for a deal on hotel rooms... my brother inlaw's girl works for a hotel chain. Unless you've got it covered already.

[VanSupra]

I agree with this as I said before..Anyways let's get this thing finalized and rolling..I have to know when I have to have my new snail and other goodies installed by +++Heh..

:naughty:

[Jayhall]

ill know the date i have to have a new car

[garagefujimoto]

+1 For Vancouver. I really like Kelowna, but there isn't a whole lot to do there except make noise and do burnouts in front of the campground.

At least we can put the cars to work, and the highway to the coast is great fun.

-1 To Necrocyde for needing a tan before hitting the beach lol.

:biglaugh:

[Suprastic]

I hope my car will make it to Vancouver from Winnipeg

[Jayhall]

^^^ send it on rail

[Suprastic]

I never thought of that. How much do you think it'll cost.

[Jayhall]

www.searail.ca, if you do go that route, contact me before you hand the car to them. i work at a place that does that kind of stuff, and i can tell you how to keep the workers happy, and your car alive

[Suprastic]

It been decided. Im sending my car by rail to Vancouver, and taking a flight down. I look forward to the meet.

[supracer89]

...Is this happening this year, and is there any visions on dates if it does. I'd love to come out next year since I couldn't make it this year.
vancouver thats pretty far is there going to be a full load of events cause I would hate to drive all that way just to have dinner and look at everyones car dyno, drag racing ,autocross.:icon_bigg

you have to experiance java hut, and car guy will love that, the majority is mostly domestics, but its still cool to go hang out there on a friday night.

Dates will be mentioned as soon as we get the track and other events finialized. It's not like we have been sitting here doing nothing ;) Seamus and I are waiting on people to get back to us.
Thanks for the offer on hotels Dave. I will call you.

Have a beer and relax. :beer:

Duane

[soup]

Dates will be mentioned as soon as we get the track and other events finialized.

:aigo: WHAT!!! I haven't heard much about what's planned. Can't wait for updates!

[Suprastic]

I think I'll drive instead of shipping the car via SeaRail. They want $750 one way. So $1500 will be the gas there and back, and extra for a possible rebuild

[El Nagro]

Vancover should be fun, I'll have to book sometime off though too make sure I can make my trip worth while, I am thinkin Lethbridge to Van in like 8hrs! lol

[garagefujimoto]

I'll be right behind you El Nagro.

[stratoayu]

whens this all going on!! should be counting me in. i live in van so :)

[NecroCyde]

well i say some of us albertans should meet up in calgary and depart the next morning from CGY, taking the trans-can all the way there, should save some time. people like jeff lange, 2phat4u, ubersupra, jaymez and victor might be interested in such a caravan.

[Suprastic]

I'll meet up up with you guys when dates have been made, and you guys decide when you want to take off. Its about 16hrs for me to get to Calgary.

[garagefujimoto]

sounds good
you can stay here if you have no hotel funds

[mk3driftr]

Any dates yet getting anticapated to go, need to finish car off for the trip

[Jayhall]

ill have to check with father, but weve got an extra guest bedroom id be willing to offer up to a fellow supra owner for the weekend. As long as you have a good alarm and imobilizer on your car. Like i say, ill check with my dad. But if im one my own by then, ill take as many of you as possible.

[BTZ]

I thought that if the PacNW meet was in Vancouver this year suprafest would merge into it, if not suprafest will be in Kelowna.

[VanSupra]

I thought that if the PacNW meet was in Vancouver this year suprafest would merge into it, if not suprafest will be in Kelowna.

This meet is happening in Vancouver this year and not Kelowna..Do not post assumptions as it will tend to confuse the issue..

[garagefujimoto]

Aug 18-19 FTW
Do it then.
I'll be out there with 20 other Supra's anyways for a west cost cruise
Might as well stop in then to hit the show.

[Loki]

I'd rather have the meet in Kelowna, but oh well. I'll go to where ever it's being held.

[Jayhall]

of course you will, you must, its your duty as a supra owner..... hahaha, duty lol

[BTZ]

well what do I know, still have not heard anything from anyone organizing it.

[JimR]

I'd love the meet to be in July as opposed to August... wherever it's held! But that isn't likely to happen if we're combining this with pacnw.

[becauseican]

Instead of keeping everything a "secret" can you give us an idea of what the potential dates are and what events are being planned. If you give us some info I am sure you might even find some people to help out. I think July would be best.

[CanuckDave]

well i say some of us albertans should meet up in calgary and depart the next morning from CGY, taking the trans-can all the way there, should save some time. people like jeff lange, 2phat4u, ubersupra, jaymez and victor might be interested in such a caravan.

for sure, a group of us from edmonton are going to go again, so we should figure out a time / place in calgary to meet up and then cruise as a group to Van.

edit: just read through the thread a bit more.. track planning eh? I like the sound of that, its the one thing I really thought was missing from suprafest last year. can't wait to go again, should be good this year

[Stanzaspeed]

i definately think we need a post with definate plans for the meet. oh, and im anxious as hell to get down there and meet you guys in person :icon_bigg

[garagefujimoto]

The dates for my private trip to cruise the mountains of BC and go watch Formula D in Seattle were posted before Christmas. As such, people were able to plan their vacations, car modifications and budgets around it. That is probably why I have over 100 committed participants. Perhaps the Suprafest can enjoy such numbers this year.

My crew will be out in BC August 18-20, and I'm sure we'll be back out if Suprafest falls on another weekend. If anybody cares to join us for my trip, please PM me.

Evan

[Stanzaspeed]

you know im all over it evan :joshers:

[nickel and dimed]

Wow I cant believe I have never heard of this before *cough.....John....cough, cough*. I would love to come down and meets all the fellow supra owners in person. So these estimated times of Aug 18-20th are they still up in the air or set in stone.

[89 Black Beauty]

i've reformatted my computer since last year, does anyone still have the 2005 SF link?
Whenever it is i'll be there for sure, i didn't get to go last year because that's right when i started having all my issues.

[JimR]

You mean this?

http://suprafest.ca/

[89 Black Beauty]

yeah that's it, i knew it was something tricky like that.

[upgradedsupra]

Nothing is a "secret:. We are simply trying to get details confirmed before we give info out.

It might be Dec 24 and it might be Aug 14. :evil2:

No really, be paitent and we will get back to you soon. :icon_bigg

:hsugh: you just werent listening

[becauseican]

I would suggest having a poll with the users here, to see what weekend is favored with like 3-4 options, of corse it would have to be a weekend where there is the Street Legal drags. The August long weeknd might get the highest turnout with most people getting the extra day off work.

Poll away, it's mid April already and I need to take the time off work to drive 1,200 km

[upgradedsupra]

We have our dates and have other people to accomodate other than us Canadians. :icon_conf

I will get back to you soon.

Edit: the reason in case people are wondering that I am not having a poll is because we only have a couple of different dates for what we have planned for this event. Hope that makes more sense.

Duane

[garagefujimoto]

Either way, no dates = me and 7 other supras stay at home instead of quitting our jobs

Take it as you will

I only get so many days off and I have 3 trips to Seattle, a possible Sema trip, I want to go to japan, and go maybe for a rail tour through the mountains. So make up my mind or I will do it myself.

[WeDgE]

^^

[GrimJack]

Now we are starting to get into the period where my schedule is booking fast as well. I can't hold the entire summer open months in advance, folks - I need to be able to plan when to take vacation and coordinate this with the missus.

My weekends for the summer are already half booked. :(

[garagefujimoto]

For those who want an actual meet date,, I have planned my own cruise independent of this event. We will be travelling from Alberta to Vancouver Friday August 18, doing a Auto X at the Tradex on Saturday 19 and going down to WA on Sunday 20 to watch Formula D. At least 100 Japanese sports cars of all types are expected to join me. Hopefully the Suprafest will be of equal caliber upon the announcement of where and when I need to put my shoes this summer.

[upgradedsupra]

Take it as I will? ok then ...:nono:

I have been planning this and IF I had a date it would be mentioned. Once I get it I will post it up. You think I am just playing with you people here :icon_conf

I am after them every week. I hope to have a date very quick here.

Duane

have a nice day

[WeDgE]

Well, if you're heading this up, set a date and hope people can make it! lol

[becauseican]

Duane, can you at least tell us what dates you are working on?, even if its not finalized then we can at least know what weekends it wont be on, so we can plan accordingly, I mean you must have it narrowed down to like 2 or 3 weekends right?.

I think if you wait too long to release a date the turn out will be low, and scince it is being held in one of the nicest cities in the world it would be a shame to not have a big turn out. Man its almost May already and there is no date yet.

im looking forward to this one :D suprafest... i dont know when to look forward to it yet. Id really hate to have it in my own town, and miss it because ive got other plans already. Common duane, atleast an idea.

[Suprafiend]

hmmm just found this thread, sorry, I don't check SupraMania much. As for your request well we're not happy either that this is taking so long. It was really hard finalizing the dates this year as we have 3 major events to book locations for so we didn't have much choice for the dates available. We're still waiting for final word on availability of the locations but we're really hoping to have word by the end of this week. As it stands, it will most likely be the August 4-6th weekend. If that falls through, the weekend after, and if that falls through, the one after that. Ideally with Vegas so much earlier this year we'd like this event sooner too. We'll post as soon as we have hard dates for the major bookings. Once again sorry for the delay, there's been some extraneous circumstances with location bookings this year with some of the associations we're dealing with.

[garagefujimoto]

Merci Mr Epp
You are max pimp

[upgradedsupra]

Thanks Seamus for posting. I was beat last night after driving all day from out of town yesterday.

Duane

Hope you guys are happier now. I will call you later about more details Seamus for the event I am working on.

Randy: yes the nicest city for shoow mang :biglaugh:
