Snoqualmie Pass

Hi everyone,


Has anyone driven through Snoqualmie Pass recently? I've been by a couple of times in a non-FRS/BRZ and the heavy winds really pushed the vehicle around.

When you've drove by the Pass, how did the car feel against the strong winds?

I've driven a stock FRS through 65mph wins gusts out here in eastern WA. The car handled it fine.

not recently, but i've done the passes in the summer and had no issues other than being bored and playing with a couple porches and bmw and driving faster than i should. Right now i wouldn't attempt the pass without winter tires and maybe even a set of chains.
