Yesterday, we went to Cold Lake for "Race the Base". The day was full of very expensive cars getting a chance to drive very fast. Jason, I'm pretty sure you would have loved this! We watched cars drive down a runway trying to beat their target speed, usually going over 300km an hour! We saw some Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Ford GTs, Jaguars, and a Maserati...yeah, it was pretty nice.
We were freezing the whole time but we held out for the final event: A CF18 Jet race a Ferrari Enzo and a few other cars. Pretty sweet!
Liam was in Car heaven!
That's us...wearing toques in August!!
We met up with our good friends Greg and Meg
The Maserati
This Ford GT made the fastest time: 344 km/h
The main event was the CF18 racing the fastest production car, Ferrari Enzo, from a stop. The Ferrari had no chance against the Jet. The Jet then came back around to race other cars and took it easy on them.
This was the Ford GT (above) and Maserati (below) racing. I was actually able to get these in the same shot unlike the Enzo.

Sounds like an awesome time, except the cold weather! I think I will have to start wearing jeans to Farmers market, I wore capris and froze yesterday! It is those monster truck shows that are way too loud, even I wished I had something for my ears the one and only time I went and will not ever go to again! It was inside to boot, so it was super loud.
