Oh and we have a meet up the morning of for the people that want to cruise in a group.
It starts at the Beaverton Fred Meyers near the Starbucks.
We meet up at 6:15 to 6:29.59 and leave there at no later than 6:30AM to head to the track and wait in the lines. This usually gets us into the lanes and not out on the street....

If you are on Facebook we have an event set up here....

This is not a Rose City Volksters event.
We are simply helping to promote it for a better turnout. Cool

Looks like Perfect Weather for the PIR Show..... Better than last weekend in Seattle... all you guys up in Seattle that want a great all in one show with "'Perfect" weather should make the down hill run for PIR...
Great Show, Swap and Drag Races all in one! Come the night before and spend the night at the track.... beat the line...
Confirmed gate will be open earlier this year but a crowd is expected.

so Who's in? Cool

beat the line by cutting it like dozens did last year because the guy directing traffic walked away shortly after the gates opened Rolling Eyes

Point is.. why not just beat the line all together!. one of the FEW NW shows that you can do it... we need more venues that offer a complete VW show with Show, Swap and Races as well as shows that end at 2-3 PM. Rolling Eyes

I guess you missed the sarcastic point I was trying to make Rolling Eyes

Almost had to cancel this cameo. My 181 had a catastrophic failure. This comes once a year. 181 is fully functional again. Looking forward to seeing familiar faces and enjoying summer!

So did ANYONE post pics from this show? I only found 1 (one) pic in the gallery labelled Rose City Bug In 2014.

I admit, I took some pics with my phone but I'm too lazy to upload. Maybe I'll put some on Facebook.
