Default 2010 GTA Event List

Now that the season has been "officially" kicked off here in the GTA, I started to work on updating the calendar with the Corvette events I go to or try and go to.

I figure it might be worthwhile to post up a list to assist anyone who either wants to attend or wants to plan a cruise or event of their own.

Here is a list of events I know about in the GTA or that the GTA bunch attend. Feel free to send me any others you know about and I'll maintain the list as we go.

Great idea Peter, should be a sticky with you as the official gatekeeper to update as needed. For CF only related events or events where traditionally alot of CF'ers show up.

Put in Pete's Big Bite in Whitby for Fri nites, and what about Mosport ALMS? HDR's on Thursdays?

I know it's not an official "car show" but how come you didn't include the Saturday morning Chapters GTGs?

What about moving the summer one to July to not conflict with the Keswick cruise? Say July 10 with July 17 as the backup date?

Great idea Peter.

I haven't been able to confirm it yet, and I guess I'll find out the May 2-4 weekend, but I believe the Maple show and the Woodbridge show have amalgamated.

Sundays from 11am - 3pm at the AMC Theatre lot at Hwy 400 and 7.

No more Sunday or Monday evenings anymore.

Hey Pete. You can add May 16th to your list for the Webers Run. I've moved it from the 8th as too many people can't make it.

And I see from your list that the Beach Cruise and Woodward are still the same weekend. You would think ONE of them could move to the weekend prior as nothing seems to be on that date.

And thanks for putting up the Hot Dog Run (HDR).

And maybe someone can provide us with a list of track days that can be added to that list.

Stan.

They were talking about it at the end of last year. I didn't think it was going to happen but looks like it has. I've tried contacting each organizer by email but haven't heard back.

http://www.oxfordautosales.com/cruise/ confirms the Woodbridge show has moved to Sundays from 11am to 3pm and the Maple show has been taken off the calendar.

I even stopped in the Fortino's to ask but they didn't know.
