I usually take about 11 hours to get to Chiliwack. Calgary is 2 hours from here so you should be good to go for about 9 hours to Calgary.

I WOULD like to go to a comp in Alberta but I am very nervous about driving such an old car such long distance... it's NOT going on a trailer... </font>[/QUOTE]there are at least 4 mountain ranges to cross on the drive from vancouver to alberta, if you take highway three, you have the hope pass, the okanogan pass then the blueberry/paulson (castlegar) then the big one, the salmo/creston, from there the drive through the rockies is pretty flat.
highway 1 is just as bad, the rodgers pass is insane, the pass through the rockies on highway 1 is all uphile both ways (or so it seems).
BUT, if my old broken down escort could do it (10 yrs ago) any car can make it.
I duno where landsdown is, but check this site i found.

In SQ you always have a chance, do to the personal opinion in judging. This is why Steve snuck by, and beat me.
I understand that Rob may want his presence known at a show like HOB. Younger people can learn alot from him, and it shows them what you can do with a little planning and a little know-how. the same kids just don't want to get their *** handed to them by him. We've been down this road before.
And I don't want someone not compete just cuz they'll see my setup and know I'll kick their ***. It seems like people only want to compete if they can win, not to get out there have fun and learn. </font>[/QUOTE]I went to the events not to place but to learn! Both Mike and Bryce are great people to follow. Wasn't Tim in there 2?
I had participated in 1 house of boom in 2002 and placed 3rd with 132db with 1 10" Still play the Db drags when I can and most of the time get my but kicked like real hard!!! Some may laugh but hey I play and try to suport the dealers no mater the show format. Personaly IASCA is my league because ther is where I learned the most!!! There is room there for all including the Db'r. For distance take your time and all shows can be made I only tralered the Mini to Memphis, could find a way to put all my gear and co-drivers inside. But it's up to you in the end.Come on out and have some fun [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]
