Hey guys,
so in 6 months, FR12 and the All ford nationals in Carlisle will be happening. I went last year along with the boys from out west, but we didnt have any sort of canadian presence down there. Id like to see a few more of us come down this year so im starting this thread now that the details have been worked out at FR12.
All details for event can be found at Focusrising.com or on the focusrising facebook page.
I am personally planning on going down on the thursday again and will be staying until monday morning where i will make my return trip back.
Total driving time from the GTA is about 7-8 hours dependant on gas stops, bathroom breaks, food and traffic. I made it in just under 7 hours last year.
Hope to see some people step up to the plate for it, it is a wiked event and definitely a lot of great memories of last year and some great friends i have made from it aswell. Any questions you can PM me or BBM me if your so lucky to still have that.
List of those who are planning on attending and the maybe planning on attending:

Its more then just a car show, there is a swap meet, ford special vehicles on display, ford test drives, Dyno on site, thousands of cars to check out and on top of that we have a bbq in our area for our own eating enjoyment too.

In this year, mostly because I have a job and can therefore afford it!
