"Something in the Orange"
West End Thunder brought people from quite a ways to Forks, but half of the cars were built and driven by local timber industry folks that I worked with in those hills. I wasn’t very fast but we had a hell of a good time!
My notes suggest that I tried pretty hard to get that transmission project wrapped up to make the August event but missed the mark. I was beginning to fight a worsening power steering leak later that summer. After that was chemical site prep, salmon, and deer season. All got screwed up by a very active forest fire year….I managed a small fleet of company fire tankers and spent alot of time ferrying water to clearcuts in September and October 2011.
