Not! I'll be driving mine over as well so his can stay track bound the whole weekend. We are camping there too (as long as they are having camping there this time), so mine will be the store runner/camping gear hauler. Haha.

Oh, I'll be taking pics there with media pass so hope to get some really good ones.

Things that have put me off track at the The Ridge:
  • braking late on turn 8A
  • heel-toeing improperly and having foot slide between pedals to the floor and not on the brake pedal
  • coming out of 5 with too much speed and not warm enough tires

I've also seen a couple offs at 13 and turn 6 due to people braking too late.

Enjoy!

Also, would now be the time to ***** out the facebook group NW Track Evos?

To answer my own question....

Tech inspection is at 425 Motorsports in Redmond, you can stop in and do not need an appointment unless you want to have your tech inspection at the track. Tech inspection is good for the year that you are currently racing in.

I've heard 425 is a good place.


You can get them done at many places around here. http://www.nasanorthwest.com/tech-stations/


I'm going to get mine done at the Ridge before I race (It's only $25 for HPDE). Normally it's good to get it done before just incase there's an issue, but I was just inspected last month and didn't have issues.
