I sense a Washington RX8 Road Trip to Oregon in 2009!

I think it would be awesome to have a bunch of RX7 & 8s down there! Infact I say when they are open officially we plan a big ol' gathering! Gather on Friday afternoon/evening. Go there Saturday morning, spend all day racing/hanging out and then head out on Sunday!

But I am certainly interested in making the trip down there just for the track alone! It looks like so much fun!

Finally a closer track. I've gone down to Medford Oregon every year for track meet. It was something my KL engineclub used to do, but funny thing was last couple of years we were all driving evos, sti's, and speed3's. That track looks a lot bigger and hopefully it won't have the 105 degree summer heat like Medford. I'm definately down for a meet.

Looks to be coming along nicely. Hopefully we can put together a group to attend an event this year. I'd like to do a two day event to make the travel worth it.

Not sure - we need our fearless leader DANNOBRE to give us marching orders.

I'd like to do an event there as well, but I think it would have to be a two day event to really make the drive worth it.

Only one spot I saw with rocks.

Watch out new pavement is slick.
