Glen, This is from my registration e-mail.

The event will start with check-in between 9 and 10am at Beaverton
Toyota. There will be some cool product demos and a chance to meet other
drivers beforehand so be sure to get here a little early! At 10, we’ll
close check-in and start sending cars out into the wild. And for those
of us on a schedule, we hope to have everything wrapped up by 3:30 at the latest.


I think you can make this Glen.

Nick and Tim are going to hit this one up.... Not the most efficient car in the world we'll be sporting out there, but we'll look good doing it!

Thank you Russ Toyota / Scion.

This event was a blast. I particular luv the one turn before you get on I-5. Was it Willow, none the less a quick turn to the right and Walah, we were on the highway. I think the thing that amazed me the most was how we all pretty much ended up at the end at the same time.

The ride down by the Falls was beautiful. We should definitely do this route on a cruise so we can spend more time out there.

None the less here are some of our pictures from the event, I even threw in a couple of Dam Pictures too:

pretty fun drive, great that it turned out a beautiful day also. I think we discovered some places to do more cruises to in the future.

congrats Matt, you beat me by 1.4 mpg. probably could have been closer if I didn't mess up a couple times and added extra milage. But, then you did have a advantage with the manual trans and a great strategy you used.

Looks like it was a fun time.
I was registered to go, but had to go into work that morning.

Who won the 2.4l category?

What was the route you guys had to take?

It killed me to do the speed limit! But today i found myself still playing the game. Make you think about driving more.
