Hi All,

Check out the front page of the SPDA web site ( http://www.spda-online.ca ) we're in the papers. The Toronto Star did an expose on Solo 2 and actually published it in today's wheels section.

Woohoo!!!

Thats GREAT! Solo compettitors need more exposure like that to separate real racers from street racers. The street racers are making it very hard to drive a modified car (wich we plan to use safely) without getting wrongfully targeted as street racers by police.

Has anyone thought of inviting the Police to bring one of those Gay looking P.A.C.E.R. Civics to an auto X or Solo 1? It would be good if the Police showed some support for real racing other than drag racing because a lot of "*****s" like to go flying arround corners at twice the speed limit thinking they can now that they got the Eibach 2" drop done. I just thought of this while reading the Star article.

Way to go Joe, SPDA, their sponsors and everyone who contributed to that article.

Good article although I found a serious flaw. How come there was no mention of web sites, dates, or phone numbers for people to find out more information. Perhaps it is assumed the readers will flip a few pages and look at the Stars Event Calendar........I donno. Any exposure is good exposure, thanks to the people who are responsible for hooking the article up. Great work!

oh yeah, who drives the Saturn about to eat the cone? :o
