you need to hush up ryan or I am going to stab a 2.5mm thru your thumb!

Oh wait, that's been done already.

I am going to do something far worse. I have to think about it, but it will be much badder.

I might show up.

My plan so far is I am going to Scotland. I am going to purchase a kilt, authentic. and then I am going to make you pit for me. All you get is a piece of string. ... and I won't even be racing.

Summer time is almost here and I am very excited to be asked to be part of the Timezone Grand Prix. I have very large shoes to fill stepping in for the one and only Charlie Suangka but I will do my best. I have heard all the great stories from the past Grand Prix's and it sounds like it is an event you don't want to miss!!!! It is going to be an absolute blast! Good times with Great Racing and even better people. What could be better.

I look forward to seeing many of my old friends at the Grand Prix and look forward to making many more this July.

Thanks
Scotty

Wow so awesome to have such an RD like Scotty filling in for Charlie!

Super excited for this race. I've missed the last few but it's always one if not the funniest race you could possibly attend. Rick, Ryan and crew do an amazing job and this facility has everything one needs. For guys looking to fly in there's a truing station, super strong air hose, body wash tank, covered pit area with tables and plenty of track time. Some camp on site and with that comes fun evening times!

Best Western in Battleground is booked up if you need a room with 2 beds. I booked Best Western in Vancouver for now but can change if necessary.

I am planning on making the trip again this year. It appears that Vancouver has a lot nicer hotels? It says it is 11 miles from battleground, does it make sense to stay there if I am looking for a little more upscale place to stay?

The Best Western isn't bad in Battleground and always very clean but its been booked or there prices are really high that weekend.

Vancouver has many options and isn't bad to get to. More food options as well.

No. Thanks for bringing that Best Western up. I always forget about it. You have multiple ways to get to the track from that location. Plus there is an Outback, Red Robin, Red Lobster, all within walking distance.


Best Western Vancouver Mall
