Can’t believe this is real…

Hello everyone.
2010 I found out I had acute lymphoblastic leukemia with a bonus syndrome that would make me continually relapse.
Multiple relapses
Multiple heart attacks
Multiple cancer surgeries
Long rough road.
Doctor asked me what I wanted the first time he restarted my heart.
Out of the blue I said a new Mustang GT.
My health improved.
Last Thursday
I drove to Ohio straight from upper Maine.
Picked up my 2025 mustang GT premium with brembos.
Drove straight home getting caught in a snowstorm last 400 kilometers.
But slippery mode and sheer terror got me home safe.
This was as with most of us a teenager dream.
I’m alive after many doctors told my family to prepare.

Now my best years are beginning!
Introduce yourself please?
I need friends.
Car buddies?
Worked at NAPA AND YEARONE most of my life.’
Even was a unicycle clown in the biggest circus.
Raced BMX BICYCLES
ANNOUNCED lots of races to xgames.
Let’s meet
Life goes by fast
So I bought a MUSTANG

Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on the new acquisition.
Lots of good people on this site.

So I gather from the above, driving from northern Maine to Ohio to pick up a Mustang, that maybe you’re not from Edmundston but rather Madawaska or nearby in Maine?

I’m Marc from Saint-Leonard.

There’s a few of us between Grand Falls and Edmundston that get together for the odd drive up here.

These are my babies.

Yes technically Madawaska.
Beautiful cars.
Northern Maine has limited car community unfortunately.
Have passport and shop almost totally in edmundston.
I’m planning on taking wife on a edmundston to grand falls trip this Saturday.
First time excited
 
I guess techincally we are a forum, but we do a few events through the summer
you will find infor on the events thread.
Spring, run, fall run, Atlantic nationals run, few other thing things.

Also lots of guys here post car shows around the maritimes.
for possible days trips. season is just getting going,
 
I want to share my experience in this group.
From day one
Everyone on here have been amazing!
Everyone has offered good advice and friendship.
Lots of groups can get hostile and makes it not fun.
This group is doing everything right!
You treated me a foreign stranger like family.
Thank you to each of you.
I hope to meet all of the members in Moncton for Atlantic Nationals.
Already registered!!!
Thank you again for being good people
 
There’s a learning curve to attending the Atlantic Nationals.
Largest car show in Canada.
Got to line up early in the morning to get in.
Where’s the best places to park, etc.

You should dm Mcdavis above.
He’s an old pro at it.
Or plan on attending spring run to Taylor Ford in Amherst in June.
He’ll probably be there. You can talk in person.
Along with 05gt5speed and TrueBlue02058.
 
The best on road action is on Mountain rd Saturday evening but there are no hotels in that area.
This group organizes a supper at a restaurant on Mountain Road Saturday to take in the action after eating.

For general action, there will be cars and traffic on Main street all weekend.
The Rodd Moncton on Main street would be a good one for sitting outside at, in Bore park right next door.
This one books quickly. It might already be booked up for that weekend.

Then honourable mention to Chateau Moncton and Hyatt Place Moncton, also both on Main street at opposite ends of downtown.

Then there are two large, multi floor, hotels right downtown also on Main street.
The residence Inn by Marriott and the Delta Hotels Beausejour.
 
Everything is all set
Hotel registration.
Event registration.
Question
What event is the key event?
Friday night dinner or Saturday night?
I’m so excited I can’t express it!!!
For 17 years
I’ve suffered and accepted not having anything planned because I’m always sick.
I’ve had no vacation in 17 years.
No hotel just hospital visits.
Each day closer is a victory to me.
Thank you everyone for putting up with my questions.
I’m happier than I can remember.
Thank you for being nice to me .
You have no idea how much it means.
Bless each of you
Phillip
 
We have a friday night run and supper.

Saturday, many go to the park, but a few of us do a run instead,
Sat night we have a supper, normally at Rosanna's then watch the cars cruise Mountain road.

Many do both nights, some choose.
basically what ever works for you.
 
I thought I had replied to this Welcome thread already, however I guess i hadn't.
So that being said welcome to Maritime Mustang and Congratulations on the new vehicle and your new lease on life.
I hope you get lots of miles and Smiles this season.

The Nationals weekend as mentioned above we will have a a cruise and supper that will be planned out soon. The Saturday we will do a cruise for those not wanting to attend the Nationals at the park, followed by a nice meal at Rosanno's and car watching on Mountain road. Typically once we park the cars at Rosanno's we are good for the evening which is nice.

More details to follow. We will create individual threads for each event as we get closer for sign up so we can get numbers.
