Here's the plan as of Friday. We're meeting up at the Maplewood golf course, in Renton @ 7:15 am. Leaving for the show @ 7:30 am, with hopes of showing up around 8am for the show. Opening day is always crazy, so you want to show up early.

We'll play the lunch/photo op by ear, on the day.

I might make it, but I won't be leaving Portland until around 6:30 am if I do. That would put me there around 9:30 am or so.

I might be down for lunch depending on where we go and I'm a photographer so a photoshoot might be a must!

ErikwithAK01

Oh yeah? Right on! I used to do commission work for the local BMW forum contingent, before I became a Vette guy. The other year we stopped in at Bob's Burgers and Brews in Everett, near the mall, and that worked out nicely, but we also did a group photo shoot at a local shop that has all kinds of cool memorabilia, which happened to be in the area. I imagine, if we don't get in touch with the shop, that if we meet up afterwards, it will be decidedly farther South than Everett.

It appears that I will be there with Carol-Jean, who has graciously consented to getting up at an ungodly early hour for her. I expect to be at RTC around 8:30, coming up from Puyallup.
Lunch afterwards sounds good.

I'll probably make it, but sans Corvette

Hmmm tough choice, Griots has an event too:

Caffeine & Gasoline®
April 2, 2016
Theme: Super Cars
Griot's Garage Store & Events Center
Tacoma, WA
8:00 a.m.


Never been to one of theirs, anyone have a preference or pro/cons?

RTC will be bigger and better no doubt so I'll probably do that.

Rain is now in the forecast with a 50% possibility.

Griots is rain or shine, but may limit the high end cars.

NOAA shows sunny and 60 from what I see at least now, lets hope that sticks. I'm not getting my hip waders out.

Erik,
Not sure when you'll see this, but it may be a good idea to update your first post with a list of who all is going/plans to go.

Google weather shows partly cloudy on Sat....chance of rain is super low....

SmileyOr

Such is the weather!

Here's hoping for a nice warm sunny day

00Midnight

I'll be there. If I get my seats done...new covers, foam, seat heaters, rocking seat fixed. Everything is done except for pulling the new covers on ... oh yeah...new lumbar bladders...I have on new one ... waiting for second to arrive. So you might see me with one seat :-)

Someone familiar with the area should suggest a place and time to meet for lunch. I know I would like to have something to eat before Carol-Jean wants to go shopping. She is a professional at that.

SmileyOr

BJ's restaurant is right there if you don't mind the food. They open at 10:00 am.

I can vouch for their Clam Chowder and Pizza.

Weather looks good, in for sure, will be early and try and get us a row - we need cars, pass the word and bring em out !

Evilash

If I go it's with the family so the car will stay dirty at home. Would like to get there with my car again though. I want to be in the group instead if parked on the side.

To the top

00Midnight

I'll be there! Drivers sea tis done so I can now drive there. If you see me w/out passenger seat don't laugh...it will get done this weekend!

JETninja

Just an FYI for those up north, the 520 will be closed all weekend.....
