Haha...Gorgeous spot. All mountains and gorges. There's alot of remote communities and oldschool places. Not nice in the winter though. We have about 5ft of snow on the ground now and way more to come.

Just to give you an idea of how much snow we actually have. Most of this fell overnight New Years Eve. We had to get a tractor up to get us out.

I was thinking about doing something to participate. worst thing is, I never know where I'll be then. I travel alot with work back and forth to Ontario, but I usually know a month in advance.

I'll definitely have to look into that for sure once I know I'll be home then. And for sure, let me know when you're in town.

Wow, I hope you've taken advantage of Marble Mountain with all that fresh. The Supra is a 93 TT, Not a Targa unfortunately. Something new is interesting.... I'm planning to add an NSX or Boxster S in the next year.

Marble is on the west coast where I'm originally from. I live 4 hrs away now, but I used to ski alot before I moved out here.

93 TT Nice! The Targe roof is way overrated. I find the car twists really bad when the roof is out over the bumps. The roof is screwed in with a hex head bolt in each corner. It's not quick release as it is meant to stabilize the car.

NSX would be awesome. I should be traveling to Ontario late august to mid sept, and I've been talking back and forth with the company I bought my fd from about the 95 GTR. I may be driving one back in September if the wife lets me!..hahaha We'll see

I would say!!..I was going to get an R32 before I bought my fd, but I figured I would hold off just another year and wait for the R33 GTR to be allowed into Canada. I'm glad I did. So hopefully in Sept I'll be driving one home...
