I'd love to come up for a private track day; if of course you are cool with a few Washington State AMGers joining in.

Completely cool, I'll post the info once we've confirmed everything. Looking like it'll be sometime in June at this point though.

Okay. I guess that's when you're in town, right? I'm sure a few of us would be glad to meet up with you and have a coffee and go for a drive or something.

An evening meet would priobably work best; just to hang out. I wouldn't make it a point to set anything up on my account since my brother-in-law and his wife will be with us and things might change (I did tell him about our possible meet). I will only be there for 1.5 days this time.

Okay, off-topic, as usual, but here's a 3-part Best Motoring video that has almost all the cars from our usual car group in it.

Cypress Bowl directions needed.

Hey guys, I'll be up there for a short stay on the 12th and 13th next week. We'll be flying into Seattle and driving up to Vancouver. If you guys are meeting, let me know and I'll try to stop by. Anway, could someone please give me simple to understand directions to Cypress Bowl from Stanley Park?

TIA.

EDIT-I guess I could Google it.

Like Jeffield said, there are quite a few choices for you. There's also the California Cafe which is in Lansdowne Mall. Lots of parking there and it's only a stone's throw from your hotel.

How did you do at the Mission drags on Friday? Sorry we didn't make it out there afterall. The traffic was just too daunting at that time of day and certain people were extremely late in showing up at the rendezvous point. Next time, my friend, next time!
