Default Event Ideas!

So, we all know that the NW weather is just about to go down the drain for S driving but that doesn't mean we can't get together for some other activities. If you have any ideas for fall/winter time meets post'em up.

I think we should get together for a indoor cart racing session to show our driving skills

What else do you got???

Speaking of carting, there is an indoor carting place in Tigard called SyKart. I haven't been there, but have heard it is a fun place to go. Nice that it is indoors.

I don't know of any auto museums, but there are several airplane museums if you are interested in that. I know I would be interested in going to Evergreen Aviation museum and seeing the Spruce Goose and an SR-71 Blackbird. They also have an IMAX theater under construction next to the museum. I don't know when it will be open or what kind of movies it will show, but I can't wait to see a movie on a screen that size.

www.sykart.com is the website. Check it out! Who would be interested in doing this???

It is $15 for a ten minute session or they also have group pricing. It is $925 an hour to rent the whole place for a group. If we were to get 16 people to sign up for this it would be $58 each for three ten minute sessions each. Or if we get 24 it would be $38 each for two ten minute sessions. Fastest lap times win

Who wants to get worked on the track

Also on January 25th-28th is the Portland International Autoshow in the Oregon Convention Center. I will be there for sure so if anyone wants to meet up for this let me know. When it gets closer I will start a thread for it

I know this is not car related. But how about paintball? Indoor or outdoors. I usually play outdoors but I wouldn't mind trying indoors with a group of people.

That is a good idea! I used to paintball a lot about two years ago. i have not been for awhile. I have a Spyder Shutter and full camo's ready for outdoor I personally do not like indoor but I am up for anything.

Anyone else???

My buddy has a course setup on his land so we could play for free It is in Vancouver, WA.
I'm always game for some paintball especially if it's free. Let me know if you want to play. I have a modded Tippmann A-5, modded Smart Parts Ion, Tippmann 68-carbine and a PGP.
