Anyone from Bellingham area, we are all going to meet up in the Lowes parking lot off of sunset. Please be there at 9:10am to make it down to Burlington on time. We can take Chuckanut down if you guys like. Or just hit the freeway down and cruze.

OK, here is a copy+pasted blanket update...

There have been some issues with having a lot of cars. The drive is going to have to be a bit slower paced then it could be with a smaller group. It's not going to be slow, but it will be safe. We are going to take some back roads up, including parts of I-5, highway 9, and 542. Reasoning - it's much less convoluted then going through Sedro-Wooley and straight up highway 9, PLUS its a more scenic drive and fun road to run. I'd highly encourage all the Bellingham guys to meet at Cascade Mall as we are too big to stop along the way. I am not going to post directions, I will have 150 copies of maps and directions printed up for you guys on Sunday morning. I have been way too busy recently to keep the lists updated like I keep promising, but Im sure everyone has the idea that there are going to be PLENTY of bad *** cars and cool cats. Im planning on staying at Baker for quite awhile in the main Heather Meadows lot, for lunch, and so people can run up to Artist's Point and stuff on their own (as we can't all go up at the same time, the parking lot up top is WAY too small!)
Please let me know of any questions you might have, and if I dont answer them, feel free to speak up Sunday morning.

Sam

Justin, there is a convoy set up all ready. You, Ed Hughes, and Jackson Pennell are all setting up conflicting b-ham drives down I think. Ed said something about Food Pavilion. I will have Ed get in touch with you.

Freakin A!!!!! You said you guys were leaving between 9:10 and 9:20, I got there a little later than that and thought I had missed you guys, so I went up to the mountain on my own. Then 2 HOURS LATER someone in a 2.5RS shows up and said you guys didn't even get to the mall till after 10!!!! Jeez. Anyways it's all good. Found out fast the Taurus could take the corners and was surprised at how it did, not great, but better than I expected. I kept up with a few of the cars.

On a side note, a GT-R was there and wouldn't you know it, the guy offered to have me ride along with my camera for an uphill and downhill run. That was freakin amazing. And I got the video to boot. As soon as I can, I'll get video up of the whole thing.

The GT-R was hella fast, but the brakes kinda had me freaked out going by some of the cliffs. They made soooooo much noise I thought they were going to rip the rotors apart.

mine was the gunmetal fc, i was talking about the primer one, and i didnt say it was a dumb ***, i said it was stupid, mostly cause it was overly loud and annoying, but yea i dont really like single tip exhausts on fc, i mean they work but the bumper has cut outs for dules you know what im saying, its just a preference. and pluse that was one of the ways to ask if anyone saw mine because there was one with duels (mine) and one with a single (the other guys..zack i think his name was) people do as they will.
