CNAC Nationals

[tanney]

Well, for everyone to start seriously planning the trip to Quebec for the CNAC Nationals this July, I am posting a link to the event details.

CNAC Nationals (http://www.cadl.qc.ca/cnac/menu_e.html)

This may well be the event of the year and it would be great for Ontario to be well represented with the best that we have to offer. I have been told that our friends in Quebec know how to host events....

Now, of course, we should come home with a lot of hardware, but we should let our driving do the talking.:D

Another event with a HONDA product on the main page???

I'm there! In fact, I've planned my vacation to start with this weekend.

[Martini Focus]

Looks like fun, but I'm going to have to move a trip to the UK to attend.

Hmmmm a week of boring business meetings or nationals. Hmmmmm don't think it will be too hard to make that decision.;)


I’m really going to have to work on my driving or I may embarrass myself badly.
:eek: :(

Which means my new Henderson wetsuit will probably come in handy. :D

[Kreutz73]

Hmmm... me thinks this would be a good time to take some vacation.

Hope I can go... and I hope ontairo dominates!

The CNAC will serve as the Eastern Championships as well.

[Logan]

But there is still an event in PEI the last weekend of July.

[Scott McIntyre]

Yes, July 30 - Aug 01 with the first day being a school, I believe. It's always a good event each year, regardless of it's national status. A huge fast course which attracts competitors from all over New England, Quebec, and Ontario. If you have room in your schedule, it's worth the trip. :)

[gatherer]

is there a Western Event?

[tanney]

Just a reminder to all of the Ontario people thinking about the Nationals.... The CNAC rule book is available Here (http://www.cadl.qc.ca/cnac/rules/2004CNACRulebook.pdf) and it should be thoroughly reviewed as the CASC-OR rules, although very similar, have a number of small differences.

[Tony Kloosterma]

For a National event there are only 14 pre entries. I mailed mine in 2 weeks ago and not listed yet.
I understand hotel rooms are at a premium, its the start of thier tourist season or something.

lets see a big Ontario representation.

Tony

[Keith-02Accord]

Tony, you should have registered on line! I was listed the next day.

I'll be camping. but they list 2 campsites. Where is everyone staying? The one with the waterslide sounds kool!;)

[Tony Kloosterma]

how many more are going?
last i saw the entry list was populated by 50% from ontario


Tony

[gatherer]

I'm going.....

[Greg F]

Regarding rule 4.2.A.ii., where do I get a Solo II license?

[gatherer]

last year I just paid for a basic license and was all fine... club membership cars worked too but they didn't say that till I was out in red deer... ohhh well live and learn...

[tanney]

where do I get a Solo II license? The basic license (a Solo and Ice Race license) is available at CASC-OR. THe application is online and you need to send in a copy of your club membership card with payment and (at this point) you may want to make arrangements to drop by the offices and pick it up.

It's something I take for granted as you need one for Solo 1, so I apply for it at the Open House.

I will verify with CAC (formally CNAC) to see if it is indeed required (I do believe it is, but I will check)

[Tony Kloosterma]

This could be a problem as time is running short, Wes, can you see if these licenses will be available at the event?

Thanks
Tony

[andrew1984]

:confused:

[tanney]

I am looking into this.

Steve should be able to get us set up before CAC (if required), we may need to coordinate this so that maybe someone (Me perhaps) can grab them all from CASC-OR and bring them to Quebec.

When I hear back from CAC, I will let you know.

If there required then I need one also...... How much???
Robert

[tanney]

A basic license is indeed required.

I do believe they are $50 available from CASC-OR.

Now before people start complaining that this is another money grab by CASC-OR, it' not. This is a requirement from CAC (formally CNAC) and ASN Canada FIA.

[Tony Kloosterma]

Wes, maybe start a new thread with details of the requirements and the CASC or office etc, i think there will a mad rush.

Tony

[wpfri]

Guys I was going to be out of town but I am going to come to this event.I would like to make up bigger sponsor stickers for you guys and I hope you guys kick some ASS.

William

[Tony Kloosterma]

go for it William, if you have them pre mounted on magnets that would be a nice touch, Ièll take 4 for Ryan and Myself.

Tony

[gatherer]

I'll have magnetic material there .. if you read the CAC supplemental rules (highly recommended by me after what I found out) there are required places for stickers to go that CDAL will be handing out

[Tony Kloosterma]

Now ain t that just tooo cool......Williams is coming to Montreal for the Nationals........

how many sponsors do that

we presently have 19 entries from ontario out of 77, i think we all owe William a beer or 2............I wonder how his head will feel on sunday morning........:D

Yup, and they're also supposed to be supplying the numbers and letters...yeah right.

[gatherer]

well if they don't hand them out they don't go on the car ....(at least their stuff) that is the way I see it anyways

[tanney]

See the new CAC Licence thread for details on obtaining a CASC-OR Basic Licence as required by CAC.

Just as a "suggestion" to anybody going to Montreal via the 401 way.....

Just on the east side of Cornwall, there's a construction zone. (It's past the road with the US Bridge/Timmies/Sunoco on it)

It drops to an 80 zone, and the O.P.P. loves to sit there. Every time I've been going to Montreal, there's been a cop there.....

Dave,

[Keith-02Accord]

Ooooo, thanks for the heads up!

[ShaneG]

Good luck to all of you going to CAC

Represent us well (I know you will) and bring the hardware back to Ontario:cool:

*sniff*

Dave,

Watch out Subaru 8!

[JoeT]

It will be the "Subaru 3", rivalries aside let's make this a "Distinct Outing" with Ontario dominating please. We want to Separate those trophies from the podium, and Bloc the onslaught of challengers from the local area.

Concervative lines with Liberal amounts of acceleration will net a Unified message of competition from the Canadian contingency infiltrating La Belle Province.

Let's wave the patriotic flag of Ontario where politicians are as trustworthy as your neighbour (ex-con). Wave the Trillium flag, and basque in the knowledge that Dalton, our friend and banker, is keeping your wallets safe while you're out representing our fine province.

3 cheers for the Gladiators of autosport. We're looking forward to welcoming home the heroes, if you don't drive a scoob, you're an honorary hero.

Good luck guys. Wish I could be there, it's right around the corner from my Wife's home town. It would have been an easy excuse to go, but alas, baby in tummy comes first.

Please report back with your successes.

Two thumbs up.

[StewPiddass]

So you'll be in Barrie on Sunday then Joe???

[Logan]

For those who are going on Friday night... shall we arrange for a convoy? I will be leaving from Peterborough directly after work at 5PM, hit the 401 about 5:30.... Anyone?

It looks like it's up to me to defend our honour in FSP. :D
Don't worry Joe, I do better when you're not around. Right Tod?;)

Logan, sorry, I'm leaving friday morning. Anyone for a morning convoy?

[Keith-02Accord]

I'll be leaving Friday morning as well, I have a 9:00 meeting that should be over 10:30 latest near 404/401 then I'm on the road right from the meeting.

U da man...

You've got some heavy competition.. Don't under estimate that little 2.2 Litre Subaru. It's been prepped by Lachute, similarly to mine.

In this case, it's a hard decision, but I'll be rooting for Ontario (YOU)...

Should be a great weekend. Slaloming for 3 days , competing with 90 other fast guys from all over Canada and the U.S. , and then returning home to some fine cigars courtesy of the new Dad. :)

I hope everything goes smoothly for you at your event Joe :D

Yes, I have also seen the entry list...:eek:
I'm just hoping for some EXTREME heat! I'm talking fire's of hell type heat! All the FSP's are on A032's like me, but most are using the S-compound, versus my H-compound. So I figure, if it's hot enough, their tires will be getting greasy, while mine will just be entering their optimum temperature range...:cool:

Thanks for the support! :)

Let's all start doing our sun dances.

[J.C.]

Hope everything goes well JoeT with the wife and the little one. Nothing more exciting then a new family addition.


P.S. Speaking of birthdays anyone else notice Tony K. will be having a birthday while we are in Montreal? I wonder if this will affect Ontario's chances? ;)

[Tony Kloosterma]

[JoeT]

Wouldn't that be a nice birthday present... TonyK with 1st place in ESS or was that ESP...

Woohoo.

[Scott McIntyre]

Damn! I was all set to come up and battle Tony & others for the ESP title, but it turns out I won’t be able to make it. Ah well, there’s always next year.

Good luck guys! :)

I can't make it either, but Dennis G is supposed to be there, so we know that a '97 AWD Talon is DEFINITELY going to win E/SP by a HUMUNGOUS margin. :p :p :D ...unless he gets re-classed.

No way!!! I’ve been dying to see that car in action... Now I’m really upset I won’t be there. :mad:

Where’d you hear this?

[finboy]

you talking about this beast???

Thats the one; :)

on the www.CADL.qc.ca forums Dennis mentioned that he is going.

There is some discussion as to whether his car will fit into SP or if will end up in
D/M.

tony

[Greg F]

I was just looking back on this thread from 2004 and Tony did extremely well against that Talon. Tony was on Toyos, while that monster was on Hoosiers to boot!

[miataboi]

I think I smoked him on Sun in a suspensed, naturally aspirated Miata...

Sat... I was not "in race shape"... so to speak... :D



Tony ran 15" Victoracers, 13" Bias Ply Hoosiers and 15" Toyos I think... all within a .10 of eachother.
