All you West-siders are invited to come over for some Columbia Basin style autocross'n over Memorial Day weekend. We've got a 3-day event. Run Sat, Sun, Mon - all three days or any combination. Day 3 the Mustang club will be coming to get their nags whipped. Should be fun. Expect a 70mph course that day. Tighter courses on Sat and Sun. Events are run at Tri-City raceway. We use the banked tri-oval and the paved infield. Fun courses always. Off-camber? Try a slalom down a banked track.

JP, you in? All you West Side guys are welcome to come.
Here is the club website with info, including directions to the track. You can even pre-register online to make things easier on race morning.

I've got a couple of in-car vids if you want to see what the facilites look like. Somebody just give me a spot to host them (Andy giveth ftp and Andy taketh away. )

Hope to see some of you there.

If my schedule isn't too crazy I'll try to make it over. Sounds like a real good time! AL

Tri-Cities, WA - Weekend Forcast:


Saturday: Sun and a few passing clouds. High 68F. Winds SW at 15 to 25 mph.

Sunday: Times of sun and clouds. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the upper 40s.

Monday: More sun than clouds. Highs in the mid 70s and lows in the mid 40s.

I must have cursed myself by inviting the moss-back crowd. It's raining now. It never rains here. <_<

I'll followup later. It's supose to clear by tonight.

Edited followup: 4:00pm - rain is gone and the breeze has already dried everything up. Clouds blew away. Dry and mostly sunny now. Looks like things will be fine for tomorrow.
