Default Anyone in the Portland/Vancouver Area go to PIR?

The last couple weeks, my brother and I have went up to portland international raceway for the late night drags and have seen some pretty quick Civics (and some horribly slow ones) and I was wondering if anyone on HT goes to PIR? We were thinking of running his WRX (stock except for the removed intake resonator) up there tonight but the shitty rain/hail canceled the racing

We're going to try... My bro still wants to run his bone-stock WRX. We saw some kid in a SRT-4 who looked like he was just learning stick and we want to run him (he was running high 15s-low 16s ). The only problem is that I might be going up to Seattle or we might be going to a WRX dyno session at Matrix Engineering in Portland. I don't know... I'll keep you posted.

I don't know if my brother and I are going up... I went to the eye doc today and have to get glasses... plus i got my pupils dialated so light hurts my eyes like a bitch. We might be up there... Blue WRX. Me and my bro are the same height and look almost like twins so it shouldnt be too hard to find us.
edit: if my brother is running tonight: he might want to see how he does against an s2k

yeah, we went there around 9 becuase there wasnt **** else to do... no one was there. but we met a WRX guy with a very nice blue wagon. I think his name was Eric not sure tho. Just got his TurboXS UTEC tuned at Matrix Engineering and he was pissed that the track wasn't open.

Hey guys.

I'm from Vancouver I was planning to get my car there this weekend, but stuff just didnt get done in time.

I'll be there for sure next weekend to try and run some 10 sec passes, I just need a little more track time to get my Colt's set up back in working order.

Just look for the primered Dodge Colt, I always go run at PIR so you may know have seen me before.

If not, stop by and say whats up at the track.

Tom

why, yes sir there is a 4g63 under hood.

I wanna run at woodburn, but I never feel like towing the car that far, I suppose I'll go to the next imports there when they come up , but I'll mostly just tune at PIR its only a few minutes away.

Hey I dunno about you guys but if you have been to Woodburn then I think you will agree with me that PIR sucks. The track is slower, the techs are ******** most of the time, and they measure ur noise decible rating. It's BS if you ask me. I went at the begining of the season and I'm done with that place. I had to put my stock muffler on to run and it ran a second and a half slower than at Woodburn header out. PIR is a waste of money. I believe the next Woodburn is June 14th, and I heard they are starting to run street legals on Friday nights.
