lori & i hit the island last weekend to do some end of summer camping aswell as visit some friends in merville and catch our favourite band mother mother on denman island.
on the way up island...parked by the beach in qualicum....were close to 30 mostly pre-1927 cars taking part in the island challenge (used to be called the malahat challenge). i cant remember the specific details, but clubs from nanaimo, victoria, port alberni & qualicum take turns hosting/organizing the event, it runs for 4 day (thurs-sun) on the old island highway, and there were a few cars from as far away as washington & texas....total rolling car show with some really cool stuff....

you're right tho...it sure was neat to see all those cars together at once & cruising the old highway.
-
Not totally sure, but I believe they were some sort of sway control.

oh yeah i could see how the sway thing would work cause they would be working against the other side all the time, cool stuff!
