NWDE Clothing Optional AutoCross

events

Saturday 21 June 2014,  NWDE will be hosting its annual Clothing Optional AutoX.

As in past years this promises to be a fun, successful
weekend of hosting the WWSCC Championship
Event #4.

Where: Sanderson Field in Shelton, Washington

We named it Clothing Optional as a play on the pronunciation of our club’s acronym: NWDE = “nude”.   Drivers are, however, expected to wear clothing in public.

By Ted, 15 June 2014

We had a good time today at a wet Canby Datsun Show. NWDE club members Ted and Jack showed with 320 trucks and Stalwart Don Anderson showed his roadster in the rain!

Many of the Portland area DROPS (Datsun Roadsters of Puget Sound) folks were also there. Wayne had his RARE 1962 Datsun U320 double-cab pickup at the show. It was a real attention getter!

Good visiting all day long. 6 Roadsters were entered and DROPS Cleaned up with all 3 awards. I think the order, 1-3, was Tim C, John W and Mark? Anderson.
 
Jack K got 3rd in “Early Truck” with his 1964 Datsun Pickup.

Wayne got “best car in the Corral” with his Datsun U320.
 
Ex-DROPS member Alan got first in the “other” category with his Datsun Chinook camper.

Jack K was all smiles for the 400 mile drive. We just changed his differential. yesterday and he was cruising at 65-70. He has not gone that fast in the 40+ years he has owned the 320!
 
We all made the long trip without incident.
