I asked for Monday Aug. 1 off to make the trip up, but I doubt I'll go.  I'd have to drive to Eugene late on Friday in order to make the trip (four hours even) and am not sure I can afford the gas.

The PIR is a good event, haven't been up there since like 2003, I think?  A friend of mine may be coming into town this weekend (a girl, of course! Grin) so that's kind  of further keeping me home for the duration... ah well, there's always Sacramento next year! Grin

We used to cover this event, but last year, the track prevented us from shooting the drags.... We had to stand at least 10-ft away from the guard rail. Never again...

Wow, that's super weak... on a related note, the worst years of the Rose City Bug-In was when the track itself handled its promotion and organization.  Back in the late '90s, there was at least one year where I was shocked how low the turnout was compared to years before.
