They have a website:

They meet once a month at the XXX RootBeer there in Issaquah. If you've not been out there - it's chalk a block full of car "stuff"... including a 409 that will greet you at the entrance.

On to the handling part. At a MINIMUM - You're going to need to change your upper and lower control arms.... add a pan hard bar to the rear... and upgrade your brakes to disc all around - and upgrade to RideTech shocks.

If you want to see how well a station wagon can get around the course -- look up Newman Creations (Kyle and Paul) - contact them and ask if they've posted up any videos etc on YouTube. They're great people and know their stuff about getting your wagon to turn.

My Nomad had a Jim Meyer Racing Chassis under it.

Went to the All Tri Five Show at Triple XXX burger and it was a great show, the owner of Redline Racing Oil was there with his twin turbo 540 CI 1589 horsepower 57 Belair. Had a dang good burger and some tasty rootbeer too.

This video of the Neman bunch is hilarious! Great car.
