    Well howdy folks. Just a note about this Mini Meet. It was in St Thomas Ontario on July 13th. 9am to approx 4 pm. Had 5 cars total. 4 mavericks and 1 comet. The volunteer pic taker had a brain far&.:huh: so there is no pics. He forgot his camera.It was hot,(95) humid and just a slight breeze.
    The first mav was bright yellow, 71 I think, 351 cleveland,C6,full framed. Its the old Lentec car from Ottawa area.Owned now by Trevor and wife Sally. She drives it. They were just T/T to get some bugs out. :thumbs2:
    Next was a 70 in grey primer . owned by Gord Stewart for 30 yrs. Driven by his son Andrew. 289/ 4 spd, 486 rear, cal trac mono leaf and bars.
    Next was a red 71 owned by Eric March. 306/c4 with 12 1/2 comp, 456, Fast car too.
    Next was my 72 mav, C4/ 347, 462 rear. Had a couple(2) of gremlins too work out but it ran great after these were solved.
    Last was the small bumper Comet,blue, full frame, 302, a s/s car.coil overs etc.
    We were there to get together and race in the All Ford/ Merc Challenge. Huge show and shine too. This was all at St Thomas raceway.
    Had a BBQ lunch for all the Mav/ Comet guys, gals. 8 people in all. We had a great time, great weather, and ya gotta love the smell of burnin rubber.:yahoo: For you USA folks the town of St Thomas is a very short distance south of London Ont.
