I don't know that I can convoy with all of you guys this time, but I'll let you know if plans change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much so that we did a couple sections more than once. I brought along my race crew chief to start training as a navigator for next year's rally events. Favorite drama of the day: As he's telling the straightaway is wide open, I see in the distance a Curvy road ahead sign. I ask if I should continue maximizing throttle pressure; he zoomed in on the "chicane"; a hurried conversation ensued where we agreed on actual language to describe what wide open straightaway actually meant. Personally, I think he was annoyed that I slowed down crossing the elevated railroad crossing. @Captain Redbeard told me later the far side has a gradual landing zone. As he didn't attempt a "Dukes of Hazard" crossing either, I call shenanigans. If the Tenino trip comes up again, it's a quick little route. Breakfast afterwards was excellent and inexpensive. I liked that one of the markers for turning onto a stretch of "fun" road was "look for the yellow cayman". 3 Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was crying-laughing at breakfast, and even went on to tell the story of @boxkita's order with the waitress later on. Y'all are hilarious! Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow mid morning. 2 1 MILKRUN - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Ever since my favorite "greasy spoon" closed down, I've been bereft. We had a very "Norm from Cheers" relationship. I had a custom order that they made, without having to describe it. Still looking for a new favorite. This place was the closest so far. Having an AED machine on the wall is a plus in my book. 2 Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pleides Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) Whew, what a time! Wagonfest was a blast, despite the wetter weather. Glad to meet many new folks and see several familiar faces. I realize now I didn't take any pictures, but trust me - it was fun! I did hear a regular around here took a big nap before showing up though! Edited September 25, 2023 by Pleides 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tehspud Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Love the Bellingham events, though I'm biased because I ran that AutoX program for a few years in the early 2010s. They are the textbook definition of "postage stamp lot" though, so they tend to be very tight & slow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
