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.

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]
