    Posted: August/28/11 at 9:47am
What's SNEW?  Nothing much, what's new with you  ROTFL  Still kills me!
 
Actually, I think it is time for another South, North, East and West coffee (SNEW).  I know there is a track day that day too, but for those not participating in the track day let's have some coffee, talk MINI's, and act like kids with our RC cars!
 
Date: September 3, 2011
Time: 9am
Where: Starbucks, 300 Andover Place W
Tukwila, WA 98188
(it is directly southeast of Southcenter Mall across the street in the parking lot with Barnes and Noble Books and GameStop)

Bring your RC Mini's and let's do some more RC autocross (weather permitting).  Toy%20Truck 
For those interested in some great BBQ at Rooter's BBQ, we'll head out and explore the backroads of southeast King County following this route:

Unfortunately I'm going to be at the track. But there won't be many of us there Cry so I'm sure you will get a big turnout!

Mitch this sounds like a great idea, and we'll be there.  I'll start tuning the RC.

I heard temps are supposed to be back in the 80s this weekend. I'll see if I can drag Larry out.

I hope to be able to make the drive & BBQ part - any thought of when you might leave Starbucks?
 
Thanks!

I'm going to try and make it out to start meeting some other MINI owners.

Kurt, Rooters BBQ is the next exit up from the track in Covington so if you break away for lunch swing by.  Bring Pat too.
 
Genie, departure times are flexible but I would ballpark it between 10:30-11am (after all the RC cars batteries have died and a champion has been crowned)
 
Start charging your RC cars now.

Todd,
 
I updated the first post with the details.  We're headed to Rooter's BBQ in Covington.  They have set aside part of the outdoor patio for us.

Looks like I can make this after all.  I was down in that area a few weeks ago and the road construction was awful.  Hope it's better but don't count on it.
5 race wins, 2 in the rain. 2nd in ICSCC G Production Championship 2005 and 2006. Now I'm just gonna drive the MINI.

We might not make this....sick kitty that we need to get to the vet......but have a great time!  Awesome weather for RC racing (and racing in general, Kurt), and sitting on the patio having BBQ!  Enjoy!
