I'm in

 

Anyone else? It'd be cool to see more of the Z faithful join us.

Looks like we're set on the date, as for time, what time works best? 6PM or later?

 

after 6, closer to 7 is better.

 

I'd like to do it, but I wouldn't be able to make it all the way to Tukwila until about 8:45

 

Let's toss this question out: How late is too late to meet? I'm okay w/ 8:45PM, but I'd like to meet earlier since we'll probably be doing a few runs. Weds nights look pretty open at Sykart and traffic would be lighter the later in the evening.

Thought & opinions?

 

Im in.. Since I live in Kent. anytime after 6 is good for me on the 30th..

 

Looks like we have enough for a decent race.

I'd say we get together at 8:30PM. Traffic should be light by then and Triple8Sol can join us for our 2nd and 3rd run(s).

This work?

 

Works for me.

 

I'm down...

 

Alright, let's make it offical.

 

Count me in.

BC

 

Gotta love the flyer for the event!

 

Eh.... I was bored this morning. I thought it would make the event more "meaningful"... lol.

 

We are good for tommorrow night. I just called Sykart and tommorrow night after 7PM the track is open. Does evenryone who's planning on going know how to get there and cool w/ 8:30PM (8:45PM for Triple8Sol)?

 

I looked at the directions and they looked pretty straight forward. Is there any landmarks to look for in case I get lost?

 

If you're driving south on the W. Valley Highway from 405 and you go through a "right-left" S, you've just gone too far.

Look for the karts above the door.

 

Actually due to work, looks like this will be yet another go-kart even I can't make it to. Dammit! Have fun guys. My BEAC buddies better bring home some wins!

 

C U gents there tonight.

 

So after the race I am going home on I-405 and as I pass Renton I hear little tiny rocks hitting my car. I looked closely and the whole right lane is covered with some sort of dirt. I merged over the left lane cause it looked like I wasn't the only one who noticed all that crap on the road. So I am about a 3rd car in a caravan of about 7 cars. Suddenly the guys in front of me get twichy and BAAAAAAAAAAAAAM... all three of us front cars pass over a huge rock (at least 10-20 lbs) in the middle of the lane. Two cars in front of me clipped it a little and it went right under my car. There was a very loud bang and the rock went up the air from under my car into bunch of car behind me, putting a noticable dent into my muffler and exoust (as I found out later). At this point I am fume... I mean what the... how the ****... ROCK (mind you this all happened in less than second from the time I realized there is a freaking rock on the road to the time that rock started bouncing off the cars behind me). The car felt the same after the hit so I dropped it into third and started going around the every freaking body to at least be the first in line and be able to react to things on my own. As I passed everybody I see a huge truck that just keeps dropping stones on the freeway from the back. Passed him and then I thought I should probably get his plates to file some kind of a report. Move over to the right to let him by again, as we enter Bellevue, and suddenly the dude just pulls over on the shoulder and stops. At this point I am still too far in front to stop and walk back to get his plates. After I got home I called state patrol and filed the report but since I didn't have the plates and noone else reported it I guess I will be stuck with the repair bill. Maybe it will be an excuse to get an aftermarket exoust.

PDX_Racer did you notice anything as you were driving on 405 about 10 min behind me?

 

Oh Dude! I'm sorry to hear that.

Did the rock damage anything else other than your muffler? Did you climb under it to give it a good go through?
