Hmmm... maybe a vote by people who pledge to go whether or not it's closer to SEA or PDX? The more votes push it closer to that group?

Suggestion noted. But that's defiantly in the Portland side favor. I will google map some routes and get back to you.

As looking up locations. I found rainbow balls. Could be scenic. And a good middle ground for everyone.

Also as for last years event. Was it an all day thing or just half a day thing?
Time wise it was a half day thing, but I pretty much didn't get home til dusk.

I think we need to plan what exactly we're going to do. That way we can find a place that matches the program.
The first event was meet up in Centralia, drive out to Raymond which included a scavenger hunt and a raffle at the end. Everyone went home/their own ways after that.

I'm just planning routes and meting location as of now. Once we decide on a spot. I'm going to do some homework in the area where we could dine at. As for the rest. Well... More planning is needed.

To be honest, I think 'spirited' driving is hard to do with a lot of people because some people want to drive at the limits, some people just want to cruise, and everything in between. Everyone has to pay attention or you might get stuff like the seattle perrin caravan mishap.

My ideal meet would be everyone forking out some cash to buy time on a track or large empty parking lot to do some drift, auto-x, gymkhana, etc.

Well If a track is what you all want. I can reach out and see what I can do. If I manage to get a track. Then location better not be a problem!

Looking into ORP. If you seattle guys done have an issue with it. I'll contact them and see what I can get together and then figure out deposits and how insurance works.

Talked to ORP. They want close to 9k for a 1 day event, that's with insurance with them and fire/rescue... So that may be off the list.

I think it depends on how many people we can get interested in this and how much each is willing to pay. I know I don't speak for everyone, but I'd gladly pay $200-$400 for a day's track time. If there are around 30 people on here who feel similarly, renting out ORP might not be so out of the question.

I know it was a blast when there were 5 86s pretty much alone on the track at PIR, I can only imagine how fun it would be to have a full run entirely made up of them.

When I talked to them. It was basically day specific. Anything after 4/15 is like 6k before insurance and everything else. Anything before than was about 3.7k for the day. I myself don't see forking over 300ish. But if we can get enough interest of people actually wanting to track vs hang out. I can get some real numbers per individual.

I'm sure a baller like Kohei could just write it off as business expense for 'entertaining potential clients'.
