This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things.

    gotbuick What, me worry?

    Race fans, hot rodders, children of all ages...oh, ahem, sorry.

    The Buick, Olds, Pontiac meet for the NW will be held September 13, 2003 at Bremerton Raceway. Need info or directions? No problem.

    We are looking for as much Buick representation as possible. Each year we get more and more tri-shield entrants, now "WE WANT YOU"!! Bring your Buick, and race or show. Yes, it's a car show too! It's a family oriented event, spectators 12 and under are free, regular admission is 10.00. Race fee is 25.00 for tech card and racing.

    Buick people are the best, and the NW has a fare share. So come out and run, show, or just support your fellow NW Buick owners. :TU:

    We will keep you up to date on other NW Buick events as they unfold.

    How about some pictures from previous BOP's...

    Jerry,

    Is that a picture of your car before you bought it, in the first group (below the picture of me launching)? That one was taken in 2000.

    Steve,


    That was two months after I bought it. I was just happy to be there, ratty lookin' ride and all. I had the 72' convert at the car show that year too. Man was I busy. :puzzled:
     
  7. Are there any other local Buick owners on this site? And, aren't there any other shows soon, September is quite a ways away. Bye the way, cool pics.

    Hi Aaron,

    There are quite a few of us up this way. A couple of the guys that show to BOP don't spend much time on this board, but can be found on the Yahoo groups page.

    There aren't a lot of Buick specific events outside of BOP and the Buick Club of America's yearly car show.

    But Pacific Raceways are supposed to be open now - that's always a good place to meet!

    AAron,
    Come down to Pacific Raceways this Sunday and John and I will be there racing. We always have a good time thrashing Chebys.

    Steve though really likes sending them home on their trailers.

    If you need directions, email me.

    I'm not going to be able to make it this weekend - going to Vegas.

    Too bad, I'd like to get some shots of the two of you going side-by-side.
     
  11. Hi Rick,

    I'm afraid I wont be able to make it either. I have to work on the Rivi this weekend. I would go definitely and thanks for the invite, but I'm hoping to get it done this weekend. Let me know how it goes, and good luck.

    Jerry,
    John Biggs and I found out yesterday that this year the track at Pacific Raceways, will also have a BOP event. It is on September 28th at 8 am. Two great weekends!
    I am sure Dean Kaufman had something to do with it. I know John has been hounding them for quite some time now.

    Thanks for the compliments, it might be a few weeks before I can get it to the track. I'm replacing a fender and some bushings up front. Hope to have it all done this weekend. :Do No:

    I won't be there this weekend either - heading to Portland.

    But the 23rd may work for me if the gang is going to all be there.

    Aaron,
    I will be there if the weather is going to cooperate. Should be hitting the low 12's again depending on track conditions, and if I can get the gas thing figured out.

    It will be great having you down here. The track has a new consession company, and the food is not bad either. Lots of nice cars, but not enough Buicks to show them how it is done:grin:

    Steve, Your car keeps calling....I need the carbon blown out of me....
    :af:
