Pacific Northwest Track Day or Event?
 
OK, I know there are enough of us in BC, Alberta Canada and WA and Oregon state. Even Northern Cali.

I'd love to attend a track day somewhere in this area, does anybody know of any or an event we could organize for our cars?

The only local track to me is in Mission, BC and it's not that great of a track.

I'm sure we could get a few guys together to organize something?

Blake/Killer Customs, JayR, Chris, Tony, Greg Weld?

I don't know what is offered at Pacific Raceway but it is a decent track and a good location in the middle for a group to meet at. It is in Auburn Wa.

I would go as a spectator at this point. My car is far from done.

Hoping somebody has some experience to organize or book something like this.

Link to the site: http://www.pacificraceways.com/

Shows some open dates available in Sept/Oct mostly mid-week though.

Park Place Ltd - in Bellevue might have some info on a track day... I think they support one - but it's more for Porches (intentional) and Lotus... Not sure if it's an 'open' day that you can just flog your own car. But if not - they might have info on how this is done - requirements - costs - etc....

This would be a lot of fun, that's for sure! Dan (conekiller13) usually attends a couple-few open track days and auto-x's at Portland International Raceway a year. Usually the Alfa club rents the track and opens it to anyone that passes tech and drives with respect to others.

I've ran the track on Vancouver Island near Victoria, it was OK. Thats a fairly big drive for most though? Just tossing out another track out there.

I like the Portland idea. If someone plans this I guess we'd be looking at next spring?

Pacific Raceways does quite a few open track days but I happen to be autocrossing the Buick at Bremerton airport on Labor Day, the 7th this coming weekend. www.BSCC.net Who's in? I was planning on running the morning session so I could get over the bridge before the yahoo holiday traffic.

It's a US holiday so it kind of leaves our buddies to the North hanging but hey, what's one Monday off work? They're also having a practice session on Sunday if that's a make or break for anyone. Thanks for starting the thread, Rybar. Who's taking the bait?

Mission is not a bad track, we have had our car out there. they run some open track days that only cost 275.00 for the day it is not a super long course but our camaro gets to 125mph by the end of the long straight.
