Canadian Street Nationals 2005, Barrie Ontario Canada was held the weekend of July 22--24. This year has brought a name change to the event from the Canadian Street Rod Nationals name of many years, early 70's to last year, and now called the Canadian Street Nationals. The 1980 cutoff year was applied for entrants. I finally arrived there after a 2 hour drive up the main highway in a ridiculous traffic jam, getting there at 12 noon. I was entrant number 1084, and assume another 100 or so came in after me. I believe this was a fairly large increase over previous years registrations. The Nats as I call them is now scheduled to be held in the same city of Barrie for the next 3 years. If attendance escalates then this site is in trouble, as it was almost overflowing and a parking spot was difficult to find. It was a clear, very hot , humid and sunny day. Unfortunately the heat played havoc with my camera batteries, both sets, and I ran out of power shooting only 114 pictures for your viewing pleasure................Mad Mike lynch
