Bob3 Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Is there an award for who drives their Ratsun the farthest? :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted November 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 I think there has been an award :) You can easily make that drive!! Any hardcore datsun enthusiast would love to drive their rig that far!!! :) ......seriously.......I don't want to drive 35 mile across town to attend the meetings, let alone 1325 for an event!! :) I do drive the 400 miles to Spokane for the Goodguys event every Aug :) ......ummm.....actually, Paula drives the entire way....I sleep! I figured I'd better put that in there since I'm sure she would have!!! :) Quote Link to comment

Bob3 Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Is there an "Offical Hotel of Canby" near the event where most dattoheads stay? Can someone put up a list of hotels in the area? Thanks - Bob:cool: Quote Link to comment
Farmer Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Alot of people camp out at the fair grounds (where the shows at) I think there are a few motels around there. But also, Wilsonville (15min away) has many to choose from. Larry Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I don't live in the area to know what Hotels are there, but that type of question sounds like exactly what the internet is good for. Most hotels are in neighboring cities from the last time I checked. 15-20 min drive no matter where you stay. You may find a hotel IN canby, but it will be one of those types that isn't on the web. You know the type... :unsure: Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 I'm sure there is a nice hotel nearby. How far is the airport? I'd like to fly in and rent a Datsun (LOL) and drive out to meet all of you. Will there be cars there for sale? I wonder if I will end up driving home in a new Datto? :eek: Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted November 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 PDX is approx 35 miles away. You could look for hotels in Wilsonville....a lot closer and right on I-5. They might even have shuttles to the airport.....then you could see about getting somebody to pick you up......or at least meet up. Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Thanks Mike. I'm sure going to try and get there. Quote Link to comment
