Default Moving to WA, Seattle Area.

So hopefully next weekend I will be making the big moving from Phoenix, AZ up to Seattle, WA. I will be living up by UW but other than that I still need to get myself a job. lol! Anyone ever meet up on the weekends in that area? We have a couple of car groups down here and I was wondering if you have any up there?

Welcome to the Seattle area, home of the worst err.... friendliest drivers in the country.

Keep your eyes open here and you're bound to find some get togethers and stuff.

What brings you to this area?

Nice ride

Great time of year to come up. You'll catch the last of summer and still get to see 8 months of rain.

It doesn't really rain all the time here. Seems like we've had less rain the last few years.

Best thing to do is watch this forum.. most of the Seattle group post on here, so it's pretty easy to watch when we're getting together. A lot of times we see each other at the track, and you're more than welcome to come run with us.

I will be attending UW for mechanical engineering.

I found a firebird club for western washington while browsing online but they don't have a forum and the members rides sections looks to be all married couples and older firebirds. But they are having some kind of meet on August 19th in Brothell, so I might try to make it to that and see if I can meet anyone to hang out with.

an hour & a half for the drag stips (Major ones) for me.

I use to Live in Forks so seeing that they have a drag strip even if it is only an 1/8th mile isnt bad. Talking about taking the kid sup there & hang out for a couple hours Show them where I use to work at & what have you.

not only that thinking about taking the kids down to reno with us next year so lets see how they handle long trips.
