Well, I don't know how far you Pacific Northwest people want to travel, but the Carlsbad dragstrip down here in San Diego would be a great place to meet. They do Grudge Matches every Saturday. This is basically a test-n-tune session, but you can specify that you want to race against someone specifically. Sweeeeet.

Sears Point would be a good midway meeting point. A leisurely 10hr drive from Portland. Any big Ford events planned at Sears? Be fun to have a huge L showing. G1's G2's both.

Sacramento Raceway? Better track than Sears - right off Hiway 5.

Are there any Westcoast Lightning events planned? Has to be something between San Diego and Seattle? Sounds like the Eastcoast guys are having tons of fun. We need something of here.

Unhappy

Going to pass on these events until I get a new i/c and my truck is running right. After that, going to participate in CSM 2, and run some more at Famoso. I know Famoso is a long way for you No. Cal. guys, but its a hell of a lot closer to you than Sacto. is to me.

Sacremento is closer to me. Medford Oregon has a pretty decent track also. Near the CA/OR boarder just off I-5.

I'm with Silver-Bolt... Medford would be great since it's closest for us. Only problem with Sacramento and Sears Point is that it would mean a trip to visit the parents along the way; otherwise I wouldn't hear the end of it...

2nd Bolt,
