Ah geez. If I don't go to this, I'm super lame. I guess this is how I will kick off GT6 weekend.

Yeah, I won't make it out to that, unfortunately. Next year.

Dangit. Been meaning to move to Seattle, but haven't found work up there yet.

If you can find me a job that pays $140K+, preferably car-related, that would be super. Have them fly me up for an interview on the 6th and back on the 8th so I can make this. Super, thanks.

What is this?

The Toy Run? Basically it's a gathering of car nerds doing something awesome for children. It's a cruise to Pacific Raceway in Auburn where a giant meet/car show will be held (rain or shine). Admission is one new, unwrapped toy or $5 per person. Everything collected will be donated to Toys For Tots. I'll find the write up I did and repost it today.

I'll probably get there about 8am (when it opens) and stay for at least the 9am start. I'll be in Grimace (my Celica).

Sweet! I'm not sure if I have to work Sunday, but I'd love to go! What time do people arrive?

Or where does it start?

12pm Show at PRP.
Depending on where you live, some people are settingup pre-meets at various locations. I'm out near Maple Valley so it's a short drive to PRP for me, but I might meet up with some other Celicas depending on who's coming.
