Found this forum from another one I joined recently. Looking for cool car stuff to do, car shows, cruise ins, spirited driving, track days, and such here in the NW.
Looking forward to meeting you all.

Welcome aboard. The NW 6speed board is the best.

Thanks for the reply. I have been trying to make it over there, but haven't seemed to make it happen yet. I did a Exotics at RTC once last year and had a pretty good time.

 

Welcome to the 6. Its a bit slower here than it was in the past. We have various get togethers and are a very friendly group except some smart asses we have around here. Pay them no mind

 

I am a member of quite a few boards. I have dealt with the SA's before, and usually just choose to ignore them.

Do any of you head up to Lynnwood on Friday nights for the Taco Time Cruise In? It is just a bunch of car loving people who get together, once the weather comes back, to show of their and be social. I think it used to be mostly hot rods, and classics. The Mustang club seems to make a really good showing every week. The one thing to note is that it is in a publiuc parking lot near a grocery store. There is no controlled area so you need to be aware. Parking is first come first serve.
I have always had a good time there.

 

Welcome! XXX Root beer in Issaquah has some good car shows. there are many others in the area too

 

It is interesting, I have lived here for a long time, and get that same comment, that there are many other shows in the area, yet I seem to find so few.
XXX shows are mostly themed to one make or brand, and I like to enter my car in shows, not just attend. The biggest car show I have found in the area is the Kirkland Car Show. Had a blast and won a trophy last year.
Why doesn't Hot Import Night, and DUB come to Seattle?


Does anybody know if the Shoreline "Cars and Coffee" on Saturday morning came together or not? They handed out flyers for a couple weeks at the Lynnwood event for it. Never made it down.

What kind of car do you have? HIN was here in 08 - http://www.flickr.com/photos/apexral...7609587928882/ but not back since for some reason. Formula Drift has a stop here in Monroe. The Kirkland Concours is good and so is the Italian car show in Des Moines.

 

Me:


If someone can score me an invite to Kikrland Concours, I will be there! I attended an few years ago and it was cool. My car isn't Italian, it's Australian, and for some reason, there are NO Australian Car Show in North America!

 

wow, a holden, that must have been a nightmare to import, or not?

 

Importing this car is illegal.
I built mine.

 

Gorgeous car! I'm convinced the final nail in GM's coffin was the fact that they spent (more like waisted) hundred's of millions of dollars rebranding perfectly gorgeous Opels and Holdens to sell in the states with bland bumpers and horrible hood scoops. They should have left well alone and just brought them here as-is.

Oh, and welcome to the 6.

 

I agree they made a huge mistake there. The DOT had a hand in the different front end, they require a 5mph bumper that doesn't fit under the Holden Front Bumper.

 

I love how that car looks. Beautiful.

 

Thanks!
