Hi Marshall ,
I own an 87 Vmax , I'm in Campbell River . I'm just waiting for highways to
finish paving the new Island highway extention between Courtenay and Campbell
River , then it's play time !
I found the last extention here just after they paved it but before they painted
the lines and opened it for traffic , a quick trip between the cemment blocks and
I had about 14 klicks of highway to myself . I took my camcorder out there and
did a couple of speed runs past it . I was doing about 247 kph with the clutch
slipping like hell in fifth yee haw !!!!! I still can't help giggling everytime
I see that tape .
