The first ever WWSCC championship event to be held in Packwood is coming up on April 24-25 for the TorqueSteerers Understeer/Oversteer weekend. Here are the top ten reasons to come out for an autocross in Packwood.

10. The mountain views.

9. Perhaps the largest and best asphalt surface in the whole country.

8. Covered pits.

7. Scenic drive to and from the site.

6. Looooooong Nationals-style courses.

5. Elk poop on course.

4. Great coffee at Butter Butte.

3. Snowmobiling just a few hundred feet up.

2. Karaoke on Saturday night.

1. Did I mention the HUGE site?  Watch Karl drive his old MR2 to get an idea of the site size.

On Sunday, April 4, there were 53 Streakers out in Shelton, but most had multiple layers on to combat wind, cold, and the occasional rain. Nevertheless, most stuck it through 6 runs each or stopped when it became too wet for slicks. Now, the results are posted at http://scorekeeper.wwscc.org/results/nwde10/1/post.

12 drivers had a Datsun, Nissan, or Infiniti, but many agree that the GTR is the best Datsun ever.  :)  Many thanks to the drivers who came out to the Northwest Datsun Enthusiasts' first autocross since 2006. Many club members agreed that it was great to see old racing friends (going back to the 70s!) and make new ones.
