Phoenix Pelicans--Copperstate 1000.

I'm down at my Az place and saw a bit about the Copperstate 1000 on Sunday at Diablo Stadium.

Anybody been there before? It looks like it might be interesting.

I've been a couple of times but it's been a while. The departure is awesome! Getting to see/hear these museum pieces rolling down the road is amazing. I plan on being there on Sunday morning.

Great collection of cars, in the parking lot, as well as the Copperstate cars. I'll be there Sunday morning.

Mitch - What kind of a Az place did you come up with to escape the Enumclaw area winters?

I'm trying out Palm Springs area right now for 3 weeks....Missing my Snowmobiles, motorcycles, sports cars and garage already......

Hi Bob, I bought a place about 3 years ago when the housing market was really tanked down here.

I wanted on a golf course, no lawn, small lot, low maintenance, pool, and an East facing backyard. Found a 1800+ sq ft, 3/4 bedroom one on the Coldwater golf course that hit all the check boxes. The pool, deck and patio take up the whole back yard. I have 10 acres in WA to do all the yard work I want and more.

Have spent time in Palm Springs a few times and it just does not offer us all the things we enjoy. We can be at all the pro sports stadiums in less than 25 minutes. 5 Spring Training stadiums in less than 30 minutes. Lots of biking and hiking trails. Can be up in the pine trees and mountains in a little over an hour.

Missing some things, but not the gray and drizzle of the PNW.

Widgeon13, I was just going to go take a look at the cars and maybe meeting some of the locals, not entering.

It's a benefit for the Phx Art Museum, IIRC.

Thax Mitch - Glad it worked out for you. Agree with Palm Springs. Just not for me....Enjoy
