Sounds like fun! Maybe some of us can caravan up to Everett, to have that group drive experience... those are always a hoot.

kinda what i was thinking. It would be great to meet somewhere near Puyallup or Tacoma for us south end guys.

For those who can go, it's easy to get to. Take I-5 to the 128th St exit in south Everett:

There's even a Starbuck's nearby, what are the odds? smile.gif

thats the first day I have to work on the engine re-assembly in 3 months, so I am gonna pass.
I need to get some stuff done as summer is almost gone! ohmy.gif

It is REALLY easy to get there. Ya go over the over pass(if coming from south) and take a right at the light there onto 4th. Then you go up the street a couple blocks and the school is on the right. It is huge, cant miss it. If coming from north, go right off the freeway, and make an immediate right onto 4th.

"FREE general admission
$20 at the gate"


Which is it? free or $20 to get in?

As I'm going to be in the area.......

Posted by: rhodyguy Jul 26 2005, 06:48 PM

i'll show up some time in the afternoon.

i live pretty close to there

Posted by: spiritedTreiber Jul 27 2005, 12:08 PM

it is $20 to show, but free to look around. Last year the dyno guy was $75 for 3 pulls and a print out. Might be the same this year. I guess maybe the best thing to do is all just meet up there, since we are coming from diff. locations. Unless someone wanted to meet up elsewhere? I am up for whatever, seeing as I am coming from puyallup and all. biggrin.gif

Posted by: spiritedTreiber Jul 27 2005, 12:14 PM

Just remembered. It is only $15 to show if you pre-register on the club site.

Posted by: GWN7 Jul 27 2005, 12:21 PM

I'll be there in the morning.

Posted by: spiritedTreiber Jul 27 2005, 12:24 PM

I forgot the camera, but Bruce didnt. Not sure when he will be able to post them up though. It was pretty fun today, but it could have been just a bit cooler for my liking. Almost every car that went up on the dyno was running really hot, but its nice to see air-cooled cars pushing more power that water-cooled cars. biggrin.gif More details later. I need to catch up on lost sleep.

Posted by: reverie Jul 30 2005, 08:00 PM

Wow, it was hot, but what a show! Some of the Ghias and Beetles were incredible. Nice notchback and a couple of sweet crew-cabs, too. This was a good show.

Dave and Kori Jo were there with the boys!
The Van is very fast.. cool.gif

Bruce (GWN7) looked well rested for his trip. smile.gif
