I'm thinking of going down at least one of the days to watch. I've been wanting to check out this race for a few years now. I make it down for the historics every year though.

Man I wish, is the green car one of those 3.0L carbed race cars? Are you going to get to drive it?

Andy -
For an evening of fun and frolic while you're here, make sure to head to the "acropolis" bar in Milwaukie for a steak and "entertainment". Famous with racers worldwide!
Just ask!
See you at the track!

Weather looks sunny and in the 70's for the weekend. There will also be a hot rod and custom car show, it should be a really great weekend for gearheads in the PNW.
I will be there in the 28 Ford.

I may be interested in hooking up for the trip down. Are you heading down Saturday or Sunday? I may have a couple of cars coming with. Probably heading down Saturday morning and be camping about 20 minutes minutes north of the track Saturday night. I need to make reservations this week.
