pretty cool meet

So, now that I have your attention!

I understand that the average M4 owner isn't in their 20's (although a few are) and so you probably have things to do and meeting up with other M4 owners for an hour or so on a Saturday isn't first on your list of chores and activities.

Why is it that Cali and the east coast can easily wrangle up some folks but no more than 4 F8x cars show up at Redmond Exotics?

We have one of the largest threads and responses here on the board, "So What's up" so you'd think we could get a few people together.

In Cali they had 30+

In Chicago they had quite a few as well as other makes

Even a quick gathering in NJ had some nice cars

If people want to meet up at or after Redmond Exotics on a coming Saturday or some other time, lets figure it out. Maybe do another coding day if anyone would volunteer.

My preference would be Bellevue to Bothell (eastside) but I am just one vote. Note
May 21 is british car day at RTC
May 28 is the holiday weekend (29th is XXX burgers and BMWs)
June 11 is probably going to be a dyno day for BMW CCA
June 18th is Ferrari day at RTC

It looks like rain for May 14th but we will see. Otherwise ????

Anyone have enough time to meet up for an hour or two on a Saturday or Sunday sometime soon?

This is true because when I had an M3 a while back there would be 20-30 that would just show up at the mall, and yes everyone was in their 20's. Also, it was a variety of BMWs not a particular chassis.

I'm definitely interested in a meet-up, and prefer Eastside as well. I'd also like to do a group drive some time (never done one). My challenge is Saturdays are mostly booked with kid sport activities until mid-late June.

Its the kids factor on the weekends. I swung by RTC in the late morning and just parked on the street adjacent to you guys. Had my kids with me so I couldn't really deal with being inside the lot and having to leave shortly thereafter.

We can schedule a long drive (Cascade Loop, Winthrop, Leavenworth, etc...) after the RTC car show for eats and rolling shots and such...I have this coming weekend booked but I can make it the following one...

There is, but only 1 or 2 F8x cars show up besides me. It's sad when there are more 2016 Z06 (specific) corvettes than any F8x. Sad indeed.

Not true! Im 43... Most of the friends Ive made at the meets are 30+ And are professionals. I go to several meets... Age ranges on the meets ive attended in Socal. I would say likely because of the weather in Socal rather than the age.... Or maybe because we're just cooler
