<br><font color="#953734"><b>Hey Mark:<br><br>To answer your first question, I'd like CLNW to lead (whoever would like to approach the WCLM this way) to The Ridge Motorsports Park and getting there at noon still sounds good. After that, I will be more than happy to lead the rest of the way to the "Host Hotel" in Bellevue, by way of Kitsap Peninsula and a ferryboat ride. I mean, what a neat way to arrive in Seattle... especially for those from "down south"!?!! At this point The Ridge doesn't have anything scheduled that day, but that might change. It may be a very brief "introduction" to this track facility.<br><br>The people who want to take part in the "High Performance Driving Experience" at Pacific Raceway on Thursday, July 4th need to be there at 8:00 or 8:30 in the morning (for breakfast and classroom talk), so they may skip over the Portland pre-event or will need to get up at the "crack of dawn" to get to Pacific Raceway that early... they won't
be taking a casual drive-in-the-country to get to the "Host Hotel" that evening.<br><br>Okay, maybe I mis-spoke a little bit about the CLNW Track Days on the Fridays of Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends... sorry about that!<br><br>Doug Jackson </b></font><img style="vertical-align: text-bottom;" title="Embarrased smile" alt="Embarrased smile" src="http://gfx2.hotmail.com/mail/w4/pr04/ltr/emo/embarrased_smile.gif" width="19" height="19"><font color="#953734"><b><br><br></b></font><div><div id="yiv1108255284SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><div style="margin: 5px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); height: 0px; line-height: 0; font-size: 0px;" class="yiv1108255284hr"></div>Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:47:52 -0800<br>From: dmc.lotus@yahoo.com<br>Subject: Re: [ELCC] ELCC 2013 activities and other things...<br>To: douglasejackson@hotmail.com<br><br><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times,

<div dir="ltr"><font color="#974806"><b>Hello everybody:<br><br>Just figured that you'd like to know that seven ELCC members got together this past Sunday afternoon and talked about a number of things regarding our Lotus Car Club and the various activities that are coming up this year, so I thought that you might be interested in a list of the activities that we already know about, namely...<br><br><br>February -<br><br>This month is a little light so far, but of course we will have one of our casual "First Thursday" get togethers on <font color="#ff0000">February 7t</font><font color="#ff0000">h</font>, which will take place at the Market Arms in Ballard. I also hope that we'll have a "Shop Tour" at Goodman Racing in the Interbay Area this month, but it may have to be scheduled in March... more info soon.<br><br>March -<br><br>Another ELCC "First Thursday" thing this month on<font color="#ff0000"> </font><font color="#ff0000">March 7th</font>. And, I'd
really like our club to have an ELCC "Spring Drive" this month... can I get a volunteer to arrange a route and lead this???<br><br>April -<br><br>Another "First Thursday" get together on <font color="#ff0000">April 4th</font>. There'll be a "Test & Tune" session at The Ridge Motorsports Park (In Shelton) on <font color="#ff0000">Friday, April 12th</font> and a SCCA sanctioned race on <font color="#ff0000">Saturday, April 13th & Sunday 14th</font>. The fun "Tulip Rally" comes up on <font color="#ff0000">Saturday, April 20th</font>... I'm hoping that we'll have a good contingent of ELCC members turn out for this (maybe stay overnight in La Conner the night before!?). </b></font><font color="#974806"><b>ProFormance Racing School wil</b></font><font color="#974806"><b>l be at The Ridge on <font color="#ff0000">Monday, April 22nd</font> (get in touch

Then, later in the month, the Vancouver All British Field Meet (ABFM) will occur up in the gorgeous Van Dusen Gardens near downtown Vancouver, BC on <font color="#ff0000">Saturday, May 18</font>... I'm also hoping that we have a good turnout of ELCC members at this event, because it's a lot of fun and, besides, if we make a good showing up there, a
bunch of the Lotus Car Club of British Columbia members will probably attend our Western Washington ABFM! And, maybe there's room in this month for another drive-in-the-country... volunteers?<br><br>June -<br><br>Another busy month, with a SOVREN event in Spokane on <font color="#ff0000">Saturday, the 1st and Sunday the 2nd</font>.

I really hope a lot of our members will be involved in this special multi-day event. There'll be a Pre-LeMons event at The Ridge on <font color="#ff0000">Friday, June 19th</font> which will continue to the LeMons 24 Hour event on the <font color="#ff0000">20th &

attend); the DeLorean Car Club (I mean, under the stainless steel skin, they are a similar car to the Lotus Esprit), and; any number of other automotive activities such as the weekly events at the XXX in Issaquah, the Greenwood Car Show, etc., etc., etc.<br><br>PPS: If you haven't sent in your ELCC dues renewal, this would be a good time to do and, besides, I just ordered another small batch of 2013 ELCC calendars if you are interested in ordering one!?!!<br><br><br></b></font></div>
