Moving to Kent, WA!

Hi everyone,

Haven't posted in a while (been lurking some). I am moving in Jan to Kent, which is home to many greats on this board. Can't wait to meet all of you after I het settled!

I'm in Des Moines myself, a premature welcome to SouthEast Seattle.

Fair warning, as Schmedes1 has found out, I can be hard to get in touch with. Schmedes, I think I still owe you a meet-up sometime...

Why in hell would you want to move here? Actually, it's alright.

Well since I currently live in a suburb of Columbus, OH, anything is an improvement. But really I have been looking for a job close to family and this popped up.

Seattle has a lot to offer me I think:
  • Mountains
  • Ocean
  • Coffee
  • Culture
  • An active 944 community

I could go on, but lets just leave it at "I am really psyched".

Plus Blackfoot, I need my 944 painted...are you the man?

Another displaced Ohio boy! I was from Toledo area myself. My little sis is going to OSU right now. You'll like Kent. Give me a shout when you're out here.

You forgot to put autocross, and a couple of good racetracks for lapping on your list. Keep an eye on www.pnwr.org for the pca auto-x schedule. The autocross site we use is quite nice, and large, and probably 45 minutes to an hour from Kent. You might be quite close to Pacific Raceways!
