Sure. There's the Targa BC coming up.

Also There is a Friday night rally club where the challenge is all about reading the cryptic directions to try and figure out the actual route.

Yah, I used to post the info for the Friday night club in the Race monthly threads but no one showed interest so I stopped. Don't know about this Targa BC though, maybe I'll have to look it up :)

I'm about to get fridays off, I think I might try to check it out.

Here it is. http://www.targacanadawest.com/

They have some really reasonable bottom classes where it's basically stock cars with helmets and a first aid kit and you can run. It's bracket racing so you need to average a fairly laid back speed. Of course if it's raining and twisty that may not be that laid back.

^ Man, does that seem fun. I won't be able to make this years, but this will definately be in the back of my mind as something I will plan on doing some time.

Man what's the deal with all the newbs living in WA? I need more members (read active members) here in Portland! Sad panda...

pdxhak 03-17-2010 12:43 PM

Emails are really delayed. I wonder if they are impacted with that virus that was going around the last days...

dondo 03-18-2010 04:56 PM

yeah mine have been trickling in all day..

faith&firepower 03-19-2010 06:50 AM

I'll be back soon enough, and that'll be one more re-active member. I still have a shit load of parts to install....so my half days of work will be on the post lifts except for thursdays.

pdxhak 03-20-2010 12:30 PM

Getting ready to marinade some ribs for later. After that heading outside to clean up the garage and do some yard work and then work on the car a bit.

Just got back from the NW Alfa Club Bremerton performance driving day. It was excellent. The car and the skills really came together today. The Z1 star specs are excellent with the suspension setup. I was really able pound through the s curves. With the new fuel pump I could left tern as long as I wanted as hard as I wanted. :)

dondo 03-22-2010 11:51 AM

nice man. i forgot you were going to that event.

Anijo 03-22-2010 12:10 PM

So I don't think I'm going to have time to put together an April thread until this weekend, but I seem to remember there being events that first weekend (April 2nd-4th)... I think it was Alfa and BMW?

Next Porsche Skills day is April 17th and I think I'm going to be bringing a lot of people... should be a good time :)

pdxhak 03-22-2010 07:11 PM

Just not enough hours in the day! I'm slammed at work and at home. My car habit is having to take a backseat :lol:

ReyRey 03-22-2010 08:15 PM
