    Really nice venue for motorsports enthusiasts. I used to do a bunch of autocross and lapping days…read morebut am now more focused on photography. When running this track the thing that struck me was that even if you have an "off" you're not as likely to destroy your car - the runoff areas look pretty well designed. There are garages for rent which is really nice in the PacNW. :) Would be nice to have more access for spectating/photography but other than that if you've got the need for speed - connect with one of the groups that organize track days here and have a great time! Recently visited on a wet day. It's slower but you also learn more about the limits of adhesion and how your car behaves at the limits. More importantly for me it made for some cool photo opportunities.

    I have been going to the Ridge for years now with my son; he does motorcycle track days here. The…read moreRidge has seen constant improvement over the years and is now a very well organized, well equipped Motorsports Park! From a safety standpoint they have continued to improve and maintain the asphalt track, guard rails, grass, pedestrian access and striping. All a testament to management's concern for the safety of both participants and spectators! KUDOS! I have never been here but what there wasn't a medical emergency team on site in full readiness, I believe it's Mason County FD - but not certain. In addition, at larger events the Mason County Sheriff's are present and hopefully won't ever have to be called into action.

    Absolutely enjoyed this place, it's a blast of childhood Mario kart memories but love that it's not…read morestaring at a screen. What a fun activity!! Alan made the racing experience exciting with his commentary and Kindness. This place has so many slot cars to pick from. The track runs so smoothly and has fun twists and turns. Highly recommend for kids and adults. You get to kinda experience racing without the risks, you car might crash if you're not careful with the turns ;)

    got up saturday morning looking forward to what I thought was going to be my first time on a 1:32…read moretrack... not unhappy to say that I have rarely been more wronger. turns out that despite what it says on the wall they also race 1:24 scale cars here; 'car' being the operative word. the cars you race actually look like cars, only smaller! about 96% smaller but they are obviously real cars with wheels and tires and electric motors and subject to sudden power loss just like full-size electric cars ;-) wasn't sure if I'd get any track time because it's a race day but I figured that since I was here I'd have a look at how the other half lives. fortunately for me a light turnout left an open space so I was able to borrow a car to get me some laps and enter my first competitive event! yea!! on the down side I still don't know much about the scale racing crowd other than the racers are genial and tracks are a little slower but way drivier; it's kinda like the old VHS -vs- BetaMax discussions. for the casual driver it's not really a question of better or worse, it's a matter of what appeals (more fastly or more drivey?) and what's available. 132 is a great facility featuring scale model racing on a couple of different circuits with a couple tracks currently off-line including a straight line along the wall. Alan is more a host than a front man, ready to share his vast knowledge and stories to entertain as well as educate and introduce people to the world of little cars. and of course parts and accessories and cars are available for purchase. If you never have you really should. if you did you will. if you do you know: race what you like, like what you race, but above all it's supposed to be fun :-) guess I'm gonna buy at least one car when I come back.
