Um, the only ferry you can catch Jason is on the southern tip of Whidbey Island....takes you to Mukilteo. NOT the Kingston Ferry that comes form the penninsula & goes to Edmonds. After you get off you have about 60 miles to go to the track. I'd say drive around. It will be faster AND cheaper.

So much to do Sunday....car sho in Portland, racing, Daytona 500, Hooters, friggin yard work. If NW Dif gets my axles done (thank you Ellis) AND it doesn't rain, I MIGHT go with you. Maybe. I gotta see how things work out. I'll let you know Saturday. I should take the GTO down since my car is unchanged from last year.....

Mapquest says it will take an hour from Edmonds, ~50 miles. The ferry is in Kingston and goes across to Edmonds. But this was all thought out in my head before I realised you live on an island and will have to take the ferry to Mukilteo lol. From Mukilteo to Edmonds it is probably 20 minutes.

yhea you should take the gto mark, I would love to see a new one run in person.

Poik-if the ferry is your best bet then i will just meet you their, if you still want to drive down together then we need to decide on a place to meet. I think josh wants to drive down too, so we all need to jus find somewhere we can all meet in the mornig.

How about just off of I-5? 220th street exit, #179, take a right after you get off and there will be a shell station on your right. I think this would work best for all of us because Josh and I are right there. What time do you want to meet there?

Rick, you going to this one?

Damn... since so many of you are headed down to the track, I just might have to make an appearance and make a couple of runs. However, I know I'm not getting up too damn early like last Sunday.

Well, I just got discharged this morning, and I'll probably start my 20 hour drive back up tonight. So, I should be there in time to make it out to the track! If so, count me in!

It's an open test & tune, so all types of cars go... your diesel sounds sweet!

Cost to run is $25, plus you have to pay a one time fee of $10, which pays for your number for the whole season.
