Peter,
I saw you on the home page of PI. Why not share more photos of your awesome car with all of us? And why not plan a trip East? I saw your trailer parked by your house. So load it up and come joins us on a few trips next spring / summer.
As for the "Maniac Speeds Through Motreal Park," there was this incident a few years ago. After sneaking off the track I found two police cars blocking my exit to the bridge away from the circuit.
One cop got out of a car and walked over to me shaking his finger at me.
"English ou francias," he said.
"English," I replied.
"Do not speak," he said. "Say nothing. Roll up your window. And go home immediately. And never come back. Never! Understand?"
"Yes Sir," I said, waiting forever as that little brass gear slowly wound the window up.
It took almost two months before I came back.
Since then I have; a) barely stopped in front of a barricade set up by an official to end my lap; b) been chased off the circuit by a loose and erraticly driven police car; c) waved off toward the exit by a police motorcycle, d) threatened by two goons in a security van; e) advised of the danger I was creating for myself and others by 2 cops on bicycles, and f) lectured for risking the safety of the local wildlife by a cop on a horse.
But those who know me will confirm that I am always very polite, considerate of others on the road and very careful. I know my limitations and don't exceed them. But then there are those cool early mornings where it's just me and the birds... where I search for just a little more.
