Another funny thing....everytime I see someone who might be a member, it's either:

1) their tint is too damn dark to tell if they're looking over
2) their tint is too damn dark to see if they're waving
3) I'm in traffic and gotta keep my eyes on the road
4) there's too much traffic around to even see clearly
5) car is rolling too fast in the other direction
6) I'm driving the wrong car at the wrong time....

anyone else have this happen?

hahah yeah that happens a ton when I see E90's! Too bad I dont have any tint yet so if you see me feel free to wave

You know what bothers me, when you see someone driving any newer BMW and you can tell that they haven't washed the car in forever evidence of the thick black buildup on their rims. Shows they care for the nice car...

So can we establish a system of notification? I see a few, around northgate but don't want them to think i'm trying to race them or anything. What about a foglight flash or something? Idk...Or maybe we can wave with our mirrors. lol

Lol. If only the mirrors moved fast enough. I'll try the Tokyo Extreme Racer style. As long as these people don't get mad and take off.

Btw, I miss that game.

who drives the white e92(i think) off of 116th ave in bellevue near all the car dealers? I see it all the time when I drive by as it sits out in front of a black and green building. I forget the name of the company, but its there all the time. white with white wheels and an aftermarket hood.

I believe you are referring to the owner of Illtech (newish biz/tenant) and his M3. Confirm location by clicking here:

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=bellev...,45.11,,0,5.85

btw, i believe i saw you last week, around the same area. nice color choice! =]

I think WSP patrols have been super sensitive as of late. 75 (imho) is kinda high without drawing attention, but this am while going down 405 from Bellevue to Landing around 7:30a, I was in the car pool lane, with 3 behind me, going 70. All the rest of the traffic was at 65-68 (slightly slower). I check over my shoulder while passing the 106th onramp (the ramp just south of Coal Creek) and I see officer in his white crown. He tears off onto the freeway and does a beeline (weaving like a banshee thru traffic...which is totally obvious to see in the rearview) and sidles up next to me (I've slowed to 61-62 with the same 3 still in the lane behind me and tailgating like a mofo cuz they didn't notice WSP coming from behind like a horny cellmate) and looks over for a good 5 secs and then speeds off up and over the hill (NE 30th - my other Chevron exit). I'm like WTF was that all about.....

That would be my buddy Cody. He's the owner of Illtech Auto Salon. He's got the ESS VT-2 600 kit installed in his car and tones other goodies.
