Hey all! So who wants to know how to get to the party tonight?

Driving from Buffalo, Rochester, Pittsburgh, or points south? Take the QEW to the 427 North. The 427 will merge with the 401 East. Stay on the 401 East until you hit the exit for Keele Street. Take a left off the exit to turn onto Keele going North. Stay on Keele until you hit Sheppard, a major intersection. Turn right onto Sheppard. Just a couple of streets later, on your right, is the entrance to Downsview Park that is labelled "John Drury Drive." Take that a short ways then turn left onto Carl Hall Road. Follow Carl Hall until you get to the Grand Prix Kartways, which has large checker flag designs along the top half.


Driving from Ottawa, Montreal, or points north? Take the 401 West all the way to Keele Street exit. Turn right onto Keele (going North) from the exit ramp. Stay on Keele until you hit Sheppard, a major intersection. Turn right onto Sheppard. Just a couple of streets later, on your right, is the entrance to Downsview Park that is labelled "John Drury Drive." Take that a short ways then turn left onto Carl Hall Road. Follow Carl Hall until you get to the Grand Prix Kartways, which has large checker flag designs along the top half.


Taking the TTC? Note that the subway is FREE from 12:01 AM onward and runs until 4 AM courtesy of the Toronto Entertainment Alliance. Thanks guys! Anyway, hop on the subway to Downsview Station, which is the northernmost station of the University line. From Downsview Station, the 101 Downsview Park bus runs until 10PM. This bus will drop you right next to the Grand Prix Kartways facility! So this is the easiest by far. After 10PM, the 108 Downsview bus departs Downsview Station and runs along Sheppard West. Get off at John Drury Drive, the entrance to Downsview Park (there is a giant Downsview Park sign at the corner and a stop light intersection), and walk into the park. Take John Drury to Carl Hall Road, then follow Carl Hall to Grand Prix Kartways (there are signs, just in case). More info at www.ttc.ca

As the snow falls and yet another year draws to a close, we here at NC HQ put our heads together to reminisce about 2009 and make plans for 2010. And by make plans, we obviously mean get drunk (does it ever mean anything else?). So a few days later, after we recovered (and briefly got drunk again - twice), we met back up and thought "hey, if we're in a race against time, time is totally kicking our butts." So, logically, we decided to do the only thing we could do - we would finish the time machine we've been working on for the last few years, go back in time, and kick it old school, in the age of muscle cars, neon diners, sock hops and drive-in movies - the jump-jivingest, scuba-divingest decade of them all - the 1950s!! Then we thought about it a little harder, and decided that if we're going to build a time machine anyway (which, as it turns out, is harder than you'd think), we can just wait for our FUTURE selves to build it, then have them send the finished machine back for us to use!

Unfortunately, as it turns out, our future selves are apparently REALLY pissed at us for ruining their livers (we think they're just making excuses for being really lazy), so if we're going to achieve our goal, we're going to need YOUR help to turn back the clock!

So we're putting the call out now - calling ALL ravers! On Thursday, December 31st, help us turn the clock forward AND backward at the same time (take that, Large Hadron Collider)!! Get ready to:
