Bogus Basin, Pioneer and Maryhill Hilclimbs

Postby 99Super » Mon Aug 22, 2011 7:29 pm

Looks like I'm going to have a very busy September!

The Bogus Basin Hillclimb is Labor Day weekend. I have two class records there in FrankenSAAB (DSP and SMF) and it's going to be tough to take any more time off. I'm down to a 2:05 and my eventual goal is to break 2:00. I need more power!!

The following weekend is Pioneer, held in Polaris, MT as a fundraiser for the local FD. Nice thing about this hill is they have enough local volunteers that we don't have to work corners for the other run group :yay:
It's a big, wide, scenic Federal highway where speeds should be over 100!

Lastly, the last weekend of September is Maryhill, WA. I'm really exited about this one! I've been wanting to run that hill ever since I first heard about it 2 years ago. We got final approval back in June :thumbsup:

Any chance any of you cats from OR or WA showing up? o_O

I'd really like to join, especially because I'm a member of the NWSOC. Would be cool to have mezzanine, Hans and squaab99t around too, maybe sjones as well so I could meet him in person too. However, this year is a little odd and dosesn't work but next year definitely. For more info pm me.

Yes he is, I have seen him on here. I think his username is saabs break down or something along those lines.

I am on call the week of Labor day, so I cannot make those two events, but the one in Sept is a possibility...

Hey, I'd be psyched if a few of you guys showed up to Maryhill just to watch!
Only 3-4 hours from Seattle, you could make a day trip out of it...

Cadillac used Maryhill Loops Road in their new commercial.

You can see where the CRX went off around 13 sec.
