After all, how was she to know they were pot cupcakes. And ask yourselves: who amongst you might not have done the same? Who are we to judge what beats in a young man's heart?
this year its july 18/19/20, the weekend after Morro Bay!
info from last year's listing:
========= Getting There:
By Air
PDX (Portland International) is a is served by United, Alaska, American, Northwest, America West, Delta and several other airlines. It is sometimes less expensive to fly through Seattle to PDX - so check out the non-direct flights to Portland.
Car Rental
Ganging up on a rental car from PDX for the weekend is probably the best way to go. PDX is a small airport with onsite car rental agencies. Fluitt finished his last race in 2002 and was on a plane within 2 hours.
By Car
From Portland it's a 90 minute drive to Hood River on I-84. From Seattle, WA to Hood River - 4 hours. San Francisco, CA to Hood River - 13 hours.
Lodging
There are many local hotels in Hood River that can accommodate you for $80.00 or less. Also check Hood River Vacation Rentals, Hood River, Oregon for house rentals in the downtown area.

Yup! What Zack said. The the length of the course is 75 to 85 seconds long. Depends how much time you lookin at the sites and how much time you spend racin'
