Hey,

I'll be moving to Calgary in the next 6 month or less. Just checking to see who's in Calgary. Im moving alone, so I look forward to meeting new friends and supra owners. LMK if your in Calgary or surrounding area. By the looks of it, I'll be getting an apartment style condo in Eau Claire or Lower Mount Royal.

Calgary Supra owners are weird, Jim you're probably the most normal one I've ever met.

Business is groing at the Calgary location and we just expanded to a new 4500sq ft. office. I'll try to stick around here for most of the summer.

Now you're talkin! ;-) I'm just finishing up an Applied Degree program at SAIT here, and I'm a regular at the Race City drags in the summer. Can't wait to get out there and race! (Maybe next week if I have time)

Nerocycle race city sucks balls. But it is a track. So whatever. Its always better to run then watch. But if you can't run with the big dogs then stay on the porch.

I bought a condo at the new Vetro in downtown. Its quite a swanky apartment style condo. It should be completed in about 6-7 months, and the price I payed for, I can see at least $40000 in equity within the first year and a half. I mean the entire building is sold, so if someone really wanted my condo, they better expect to pay a pretty penny.

Prices have gone up like 30% here in Calgary in the last year I think it was, it's pretty crazy.

I wonder when Reg's next fun run is happening... that's usually a good draw for Supra folk.

stuvy, lethbridge doesnt even have a track, lol and medicine hat has very little import action, so the secret street events at race city are your best bet, they lost there IHRA license this year, but who actually wants to watch top fuel and funny cars all day? id rather pay money to see real street machines run. of course its more fun to run then watch, but not everybody wants to, or can afford to run every weekend.

Good News!!!! I should be livin in Calgary by the new year or sooner. I'll be taking a look at some apartments and condo's the week of the long weekend. I sealed the deal on a new lease at a larger location for my company, and I"ll be taking some time to look at some places while im in town. Maybe some of us can meet up for drinks or something. Look forward to meeting you guys.

Also, I think i'll be leaving my car in Winnipeg over the winter sonce the body shop had a lot of work to fix from when they repainted the car in the summer. However i'm goin turbo or twin turbo next summer and was wondering how long it might take if a few of us tackled the job. How long of a wait would it be for Reg Reimer to tune the car to. Any help is appreciated
