I think we need to make the next get together a serious drive! Don't get me wrong, i love the meets and catching up with everyone, but its time we have a crazy-*** road trip! lets have everyone start posting their favorite roads?
Personally, I love driving to Cannon Beach (make a weekend out of it) I'm up for anything.

Cannon Beach is another excellent possibility. We need to get our next big drive in Spiel (http://www.pnwr.org/Spiel)<- in case you don't know. I vote for Jason to write it...he's already got one article on the books

I agree too! I've been itching to go on a drive! I'm finally getting my cargraphic exhaust installed on Monday!!!
Ben, you caught my article, eh? Cool! I came back from Snow Mass yesterday when a random guy came up to me at the airport asking if I was the one who wrote that article.

It would be great if we could meet at place that is easy to access because I don't like taking my car off the trailer when I tow it around.

Hopefully it gets warmer soon. What did that damn groundhog say? I’m tired of slipping around on the ice every morning. My favorite rode is Blewett pass, a little far away for just a casual drive. I think it would be cool to have a little F1 kick off party and drive. Find some nice roads to tear up and eventually meet up at a place to get some food and watch the race. Melbourne is on March 18th and the race is on in the evening. Just an idea.
It would be cool to do what willcox said and put together some ideas for our favorite roads. See if we can come up with a route, meet up and hand out maps or something. I think it would be bad *** to get a procession of p cars bombing through the I-90 tunnels around the floating bridge. That roar would sound soo cool. Tunnels, tunnels, tunnels.
Either way we need to find some fun roads, especially without cops. I just got another ticket going to Cheney. I was going 78 (70 limit) on I-90. The state trooper went off roading through the waist high weeds and dirt in the median and followed me for a mile. I got a ticket for going 80. I set the speed control high because I’ve never got bothered for doing anything under 10 on a highway. I wasn’t asked to sign the green slip, which I found strange, maybe I can get off it.

I don't know Blewett pass, but it sounds like some mountains and twisty roads. I'm up for an all day kind of drive. My wife and I also went to Leavenworth last year, that was a pretty drive with some good roads.
I think my vote would be a Leavenworth drive. leave relatively early, spend a few hours in Leavenworth eating, drinking, etc! We could all head back together or some may want to spend the night there! Porsche party?

Not that this is decisive criteria, but I'll be home for Spring Break on the weekends of Feb 17th and 25th. I vote for one of those!
I did the Cannon Beach run with a few 6speeders in July, and it was a blast!

We would have to wait abit more until it warms up its still too cold for any Porsche fun over the pass, unless it’s the Cayenne. Plus the sand on the roads takes awhile to clean off, and it’s treacherous anytime before that. In July they even have a huge euro car get to gather over in Leavenworth. I have a cabin over on the Columbia river10 miles south of Chelan if we need a place to crash. Blewett is a ton of fun during the summer. The roads are smooth and are favored by a lot of sport bike riders. It’s got many twists, some even have a slight banking to them. It has great scenery too. Not as dangerous as US 2 because it has plenty passing lanes and is well maintained.
We should have a small run soon though. Just need to find a day when the roads heat up. I always thought it would be cool to have a night run around a little predetermined route. Like you said we’ve done the sit around and look, kick some tires. That just isn’t fun to do all the time. I think the f1 race would be cool to see as a group. I don’t know how many of you are into racing. But after hearing those revs your gonna want to go burn up the road. I might possibly be moving soon, otherwise I would hire a catering company and dinner would be on me. We could watch the race and then go for a run. Hopefully soon I can pull that off. At least I might be getting a bigger garage!
I’m pretty sure Carjeda knows of a heavenly hidden road around Leavenworth.
By the way, did I hear rumors of someone getting rid of a certain yellow GT2?

19000RPM - Good points about the weather. But hopefully roads west of the Cascades would be okay even in Febrauary (like Cannon Beach, Or 101 through the peninsula). And that is awfully generous about your offer!! +1

I am down for whatever... my car is gone for a week or two at Fordahl getting suspension and some other tweaks done to it, then it goes to the paint shop to get fixed.. maybe I will ride with someone if my car is gone still
