DAVE7625 10-26-2002, 01:28 AM hey d you have any more pics of that rev x 440?
was there any firecats at the show?
dpaige 10-26-2002, 01:54 AM Dan was right,
I have never seen so many rev's in one place.
It looked like they were multiplying.
It was great to finally meet everyone, I can't wait for the snow to fly so we can get some SW ride pics on the site.

Chubby 10-26-2002, 07:01 AM Well, I know I didn't get in the pic with all of you, But it's funny that I did get in one of the pics, The last one posted of the floor area, theres a trailer with the front of the lid up, under a TopCap sign. You can't see me all that well but I'm front of the trailer beside the guy in the white shirt...LOL.
Got to go get ready as I'll be there today as well.

i have alot more pics, i will add them to the picture site on monday !
LadyK 10-26-2002, 11:45 AM It was a great show. I think Dan and his friend snuck off with dpaige to go check up on the "local Talent" LOL .It was great to meet all of you and Dan finally made it.
We also ran into Thundercatzr there at hyis booth and he gave us an awesome deal on some dvd's. If you are looking for dvd's or vhs check his booth out as he had the BEST deals.Better than the other 2 vid sales people there. Snowcross.net Video Sales is his booth.

I was to tired to go with dpaige, drove back strait home, got here at 12:15 ! 5:15 to get here was pretty fast !
revrnd 10-26-2002, 03:58 PM I didn't notice them as I wasn't interested :D But afterwards the guy I went w/ said about the Polaris sleds looking dirty. I noticed on the 500 MXZ in the 'doo display that the finish looked quite drab compared to my '01. Maybe it wasn't polished or the hood is molded black rather than painted. Has anyone else noticed this?
The "hood" on rhe black REV there looked nice & shiny though. Mind you that is offset by the pebbly finish of the side panels. I never thought to ask the "experts" there if they might improve the panels in '04.
We also noticed that the MASS gang wasn't there :withstupid: I should have asked the OFSC people what their take on the situation was.
SKI-DOOD 10-26-2002, 05:18 PM I would expect Mass knew they would be in trouble if they had a booth there.

thanks man, what heading will you be adding them under?
02 toronto snow show !
I might just add some tonight
IndySKS 10-26-2002, 09:00 PM Well I survived another Toronto Snowmobile Show , you know I don't think it was as busy on Saturday afternoon as I have seen it in the past. It was crowded but not to the point where you couldn't move like I have seen it in the past. Lots of good deals on clothing, seems everyone was there clearing out old stock or trying to get some new stuff sold . Most places had no taxes plus a discount . I purchased a pair of Choko leather Gloves for $69 and my wife got a Polaris snowmbile coat for $129 . It's kind of nice to see her spend more money than me for a change ...lol There wasn't a whole lot more that we needed...all in all it was a nice way to kick off the season.
There was an insurance company there called Hudson Henderson. Web site is :
Hudson Henderson Insurance (http://www.hudsonhenderson.com/)
I never spoke to them , just gathered their card . But it might be an option for some of you who Mass dumped.
revrnd 10-26-2002, 10:31 PM These pics were from the show too. Here's the last version (1981) of Ski-doo's single track oval racer before they started building twin trackers. It was a copy of the sled that Jacques Villeneuve rode to a win in Eagle River in 1980.
revrnd 10-26-2002, 10:34 PM Another angle.
revrnd 10-26-2002, 10:36 PM A '78 (?) 340 RXL
revrnd 10-26-2002, 10:37 PM A '73 Blizzard triple.
Machzzzz1 10-26-2002, 10:38 PM I was at the show today. Had a great time.
I didnt meet up with anyone as cool as the people on this site. However Blair Morgan gave me a little of his time (and a autograph.) I also got to talk with to other skidoo factory racers but i dont know there names and there autographs are hard to read.
I asked Blair if he likes racing for skidoo better then cat and he told me that hes never been happier. That skidoo really listens to his imput and helps him run better.
All in all he seems pretty shy. So I didnt bother him for that long only about 3 min. I was lucky to run into him when he was switching from his race team booth to the skidoo booth.
:)
Machzzzz1 10-27-2002, 01:38 PM Oh yeah, I also saw sled ED, But i got about 5 of his autographs already.
LadyK 10-27-2002, 01:50 PM BTW Dan that has to be the WORST pic of me in existance :) :D
Heavy 10-28-2002, 12:19 PM Thanxs for posting the Pics DanR, I was hoping you were going to post the pic of the gang. I saved it and added it to my sled headz folder.

hahaha !! wait till i send you the other one i have :0:
just kidding !
We all look funny on that pic, look a DPaige's head :D (he said that, im just repeating)
Ok time for me to hide now :sarcasm:
dpaige 10-28-2002, 01:21 PM Yes, everyone can laugh now.
I know, my head has it's own Postal Code.
I suffer from a terrible disease, it's medical term is Gigantis Cranius,
otherwise know as Gigantic Head.
Try buying a helmet for a Pumpkin and you will know what I have to go through.
it doesn't help that I also have a 20 inch neck, you just have to find it between my head and shoulders!
Stop laughing, it's not my fault I'm different!!
:(
LMAO !!!!!!! :D :p :)
I was wondering, who is the guy on the far right with the basebal cap ? next to go4it
was he just waiting in line for some pizza ?
phazerhater 10-28-2002, 01:33 PM I was trying to figure that out too. Only saw 7 names, but 8 faces!LOL
dpaige 10-28-2002, 01:38 PM I think he was there just there to grab Go4it's butt,
That's what it seems like by the looks on their faces.
Go4it, you told me you weren't that kind of girl!
What gives??? Pumpkin heads need love to you know!!
dpaige 10-28-2002, 01:39 PM I just realized I haven't done any work today???
Good for me!!
Heavy 10-28-2002, 01:44 PM Dp, why do you think I had that big smile on my face and I thought you could keep a secret. :D O yeah and time to go and some work done.
dpaige 10-28-2002, 01:45 PM You're all NUTS!!!
