Maters in Seattle?

[vegasnitro]

I am going to be in Seattle all day Saturday and would love to go to Pacific Raceways for a day of qualifying fun, as I have never been to that track. The catch is I am staying in a hotel in Downtown Seattle sans car. What would be the best way for me to get to the track? Would a cab ride be out of the question? Any chance of a shuttle from downtown via public transportation? Any Maters live/staying in the downtown area that could give me a ride, I would definitely pay for gas/buy you a beer or two at the track?

Any help is definitely appreciated.

You're going to be about 20 miles from the track, I think. That's a long cab ride. Public transportation ... well, IMHO, it sucks.

Someone, please pick our fellow Mater up...if absolutely no one else can, I'll come get you.

Thanks for the offer Kris, I have decided to just go ahead and rent a car. See ya at the 'Mater meeting on Saturday!

It was cheaper than a cab ride according to the concierge at my hotel. I got a midsize car for the day for $34.95 + tax, the concierge said a taxi ride would be $50 ONE WAY.

See you on Saturday!
