I'm currently looking for an alternative route, can anyone please recommend a route coming up from Oregon I5 Northbound as well as leaving Monroe, WA since it'll be closed after Formula D?!

I made a separate thread, please voice any recommondations!

Dang you made it sound in texts that it was the whole hwy closed, all the way from Lynnwood to Southcenter. If its just aroudn Renton I would just head up I5 to like I-90 East or 520 East and head over to 405 North of the closure area. That way you can still catch 522 out to Monroe and come out like 2 blocks east of the track. My .02

Its all good. I would just check alternative routes on google maps and see what map is the easiest for you. If you are not familiar with our bad signage up here in the 206, you can get going the wrong way really quick. Good luck and call me if you get lost

When are you all planning on arriving at the track? I could give someone my number and find you all on I-5 maybe.

I got it too, I'm sure it was a mistake. I printed out my confirmation email to bring with me just in case there is a problem.

wow, I never got any kind of email, just the one saying thanks for registering. Seems like they don't know what they are doing this year.

i sure hope they are not taking away my tickets - i am going to be rather peeved (not the word i wanted to use, but it's the appropriate for this forum) - cuz now i don't feel like dropping $50 bills on 2 tickets the day before.

hopefully this was a mistake, but at the same time i want to know before hand 'cause i don't want to drive all the way up there for nothing.

The reason its been poorly organized is because scion hired on a new marketing company, and thus far I say FIRE THEM BEACHES!!

I also got the email not too long ago saying I couldn't go, but I'm printing out my confirmation as well....

So, much to my disappointment, I will not be showing my car tomorrow. Family matters have to come first where mom is concerned. I WILL be there later in the afternoon though.

My extra ticket has been spoken for however. So hopefully I will still be seeing a lot of you there later in the day / afternoon. I DID call the Vip line and let them know, and told them to give my spot to someone else.
