At this time I'm strongly considering packing a picknic basket and being there at 6am or so, but I'm not solid on that yet. I suspect it will depend on my wife and my out of town guest.

 

sounds good to me!! cost?

 

Crap. I won't be able to make the early times. I also, just let my exchange student talk me into dropping him off in Seattle that day at his cousin's. I'll have to catch you on the next one.

 

So who's planning on going to this?

 

im very intrested in going but i can only make it to the afternoon sesion if thats possible... how much is it??
thanz

 

I'm going - I'll be there at 11-11:30 for the afternoon session. It's 45 dollars, that gets you autocross entrance, pass for 2 for 2 days of racing (saturday and sunday).

 

Well, hell. If it's 11-11:30, I'll just have his cousin meet us in Olympia and I'll take I-5 down.




Game on.

 

I'll most likely be there in the morning, but can probably stay for a bit of the afternoon session.

My car can't be run in the stock class anymore

 

Hah, what'd you do? Put springs on?

 

Can't run stock class with an intake.

 

cant run stock with just an intake????? geeze its not like it does much anything lol

I had a great time!

 

All of the action shots were taken by AgentHubcap's wife Jodi - Thanks Jodi!

 

that looks like a blast. I'm definitely gonna try to make the next one. My car gets out of the shop hopefully on Tuesday.

 

Trust me -- it is a blast!

 

That course was pretty damn fun - it was huge, and required a lot of finesse. I tried to brute force it a few times and found my front tires not getting the grip that they wanted. I think i'm going to be investing in a new suspension setup for the Z specifically for AX'ing.

At the end of the day I got my time down to 53.2 - the best time of the day was a 47.xx by a Z06 - there were two of them there, and they were freaking amazing out there - they didn't even have to work at it. The best times outside of there were in the 49 to 50 area - so I'm not feeling bad about the 53.2. After my last run, I knew of at least one way to knock off another second - so I think I could have gotten down to 52.xx but that would have been about the cap running with stock tires / suspension.

 

Ok, check this **** out!

 

Any time, I like taking pic. See you next time, hope fully your wife can make it.

 

Saw some of you Z guys over in the infield doing the autox and in the stands watching the T1/T2/T3 races. We took the T1 trophy, TCM took the T2 trophy. Pretty odd race, cars didn't get a green flag because Cindi and Scotty both jumped out a bit on the straight. One of the RX-8's over-corrected coming through the chicane and wound up sitting on a wall of tires. The officials closed the chicane, brought out the pace car, and threw the checkered flag after about 15 laps. We ran a comp coupe in the Rose Cup today and took 5th. Not bad considering the competition had about 300+ on us in the power department.

Porsche GTP car ($,$$$,$$$.$$) running Rose Cup Race (with a better driver, this car would've walked over everything else at the track)

 

The Porsche GTP car owner/driver would probably be Monte Sheldon (yes, the dealership owner).

He won the Rose Cup last year in the same car.
