We’ve posted a few pics in other threads, but I think we should have a thread for this event and Ridge Motorsports Park. And I hope that helps to instigate the rest of you to get out on the track and post pictures.
I’ll credit Rob H (GT@50) as the primary instigator for getting Mike (2112) and me together to run our GTs yesterday, in observance of putting Covid in the rear view mirror, as well as a gas-guzzling, rubber-spitting riposte to the governor of this fine state. After the event, the organizers were kind enough to let the us take our Cars out to get pictures of the GTs posed on the track.

Other Details:
The track is located near Shelton, WA in a scenic area near the Olympic National Park. From various places on the track, you can get views of the Olympic Mountains and Mount Rainier. The track is fairly new, and the pavement was in excellent shape. It is designed to be challenging yet safe, with lots of runoff room to save your bacon (and two of us tested that feature!). It has significant elevation changes, linked turns, increasing and decreasing radius turns, and several blind turn entries which require learning the track and visual reference points.

The overall HPDE event in which we participated was organized by Turn 2 Lapping. The fee of $350 included lunch and 7 sessions of 20 minutes each. http://www.turn2lapping.com/
