Turnout wasn't bad.  Here's some pictures- making this an old fashioned feedback post!




First we met up in Renton...




Then we went to Pacific Raceways.  We had to park way at the end, but that was OK.  Under the trees was picturesque.




Then we handed over our donations.  Hazel and Gunnar were underfoot (in an endearing way) and then Hazel got scared of Santa.  It happens when you're two.






We didn't stay all day.  That was more for the crowd who was treating it as a "tuner" car show, although I would have loved to stay and take MINIMNT around the track a few times (spots were available for $75).

We all had a good time, but we need a better turnout for this and the NW Harvest thing next year.

Was a good time for those that made it out. Weather was great as it cleared up just as we arrived. Kids loved splashing in the puddles!
