Good to see more Balt enthusiasts around here. There have not been any meets lately in the Portland area, seems like there are not alot of active Cobalt enthusiasts around here.

. Luckily, it was alot warmer last night than it has been lately (57F) so grip was up a little bit.A word of warning, the people who live in this house let their dog run around at night, and the stupid dog decided he would play in the road that night. I nearly hit it twice last night. Once on the way coming from cornelius pass, and another time coming back. The first time I barely saw it in time (due to the fog) and swerved out of the way, I thought it was a deer or something. But the next time when I was coming back, I went slower and paid extra attention and sure enough the dog jumps into the road right as I am approaching their drive way. I hit the brakes and lock them up, and stop maybe 10 ft away from the stupid ******* dog, and it just starts barking at me. Then it retreats to it's drive way and continues barking at me as if I am at fault. WTF?
Anyways, if you are driving Germantown rd. at night, use caution around this house:
Sidenote: the end of 185th ave (where it connects with germantown rd) is a nice long straight stretch of road, although there are quite a few crests...

Oh yeah, they are very slick. Even with my v-radials I had to counter steer 3 times last night . Luckily, it was alot warmer last night than it has been lately (57F) so grip was up a little bit.

**** on you muscle cars, you guys get to run down the strip 3 times to my 1. And for the motorcycles, **** on those to fo the same reason. Oh and Im sick you guys blowing up your out dated low technolody v8 engines causing the track to shut down. I found the replacement for displacement its called boost, now let me run my 14 second cobalt down the track. hahaha im just kidding..... but seriously.
