Default track locations

i live in the vancouver area of BC Canada, i just recently got my 01 Z06, and i have so far only taken it to mission for the street legal drags. It was a blast, and sooooo much faster than my modded 86...
anyway im wondering if anyone has info on where the closest road track is, since i am craving the oppertunity to test out the handling, just from daily driving i can tell the handling is insanely better than my old vette and i *need* a place to test it out a bit preferably at a track that has some kind of classes available since this is the first really fast car i've owned.
any ideas?

I was in Seattle for a few months in the fall of 2002 and found several tracks not too far from you.
http://www.pacificraceways.com/
http://www.portlandraceway.com/
http://www.missionraceway.com/
http://www.spokaneracewaypark.com/
http://www.nwr-scca.org/race/bremerto.htm

Also there are several clubs and schools that organize driver's education events in at these tracks. Not trying to endorse any of them, so hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes here.

Proformance Race School at Pacific Raceways (just South East of Seattle) has a great one day High Performance Driving class that gives you excellent instruction. It's probably a 3 to 3 1/2 drive for you.
