Mt St Helens Drive!! July 31st??
Time to do a drive to Mt St Helens. If you ever wanted to push your RX-8 on back roads then you will love the drive! Aipex8 set this up 2 years ago and it was an absolute blast! It is a long drive but more than worth it. Incredible scenery and awesome twisty roads that go for miles! The drive will require your full attention so be smart. Also there are small towns we drive through so no jack asses and be respectful.
Not set on a date but thinking Saturday July 31st. So who is interested? https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1219512927 |
I have an event that day.
|
So you are saying you are going to cancel ;)
|
oh i wanna go! the 31st should work....
|
Sunday 1 August works for me!!!
|
If I can figure out why my car is running hot and get it fixed by then.
|
I am game....
|
how long is the drive n well i would definately go if theres lots of 8s r goin
|
Saw http://www.mazdasnw.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6016 the day you posted this, but I'll hang out with my own kind before mixing company with those piston people :Peace:
Plus this rout looks like it would give the wife's Dramamine a better workout :smiley309 So you can put me down as 'most likely' |
Sounds fun I'll make sure to keep this in mind
|
looks ok for me too
|
In!
I did that route by myself in the 8 at the end of summer last year. Very good twisties! :D: That's also one of our regular motorcycle routes. I'll be taking my cbr up there at least once this week. They've just finished cleaning the road up (except the last mile of 99) and reopened it last week. |
let me know so i can ask for that day off.
|
well sounds like lots of people are down i guess im down aswell then.. but can any one tell me how long of a drive is it from say seatle or tacoma..
|
^ The exit on I5 is about 1.5hr from Ft. Lewis, if that's any help.

Sorry I have not been responding in this thread.
From Seattle it is 230 miles total. It is 145 miles to Woodland and then get on 503 for run :) Seems like the Woodland area would be a good meet up point for everyone. Anyone know a good spot? |
