Thank You All for Coming, 14 Minute my330i.com Video Inside...

Tim Jones, Jon Shafer and I would like to extend a thank you to everyone that was a part of bimmerfest 2004 - Santa Barbara, CA. We are very happy to have had another successful year of bringing the BMW community together and are looking forward to making many improvements on the event for next year. As always, you can plan on the event happening late April/early May in 2005 with a tentative date being released soon.

We would especially like to thank our event sponsors that helped make the event possible this year. If you are in the market for anything from a new car to a new body kit, please check with these great vendors who supported the 2004 event: AC Schnitzer / CEC, Brembo / Race Technologies, Crevier BMW, RENNsport, Rusnak BMW, Toyo Tires, Autovisuals, Avus Motorsport, B&M, Bimmian, Eurobahn Performance Products, EvoSport, iForged, M Performance, Pelican Parts, Stealth Auto, Advanced Motorsport Solutions, Dynamic Performance Engineering (DPE), LA Chapter of the CCA, Umnitza, Wheel Wizards, Benfer Performance, bimmerfreak, JJL Custom, Yokohama, and UUC Motorwerks.

Why is it always so strange to see yourself on video?



Todd, what a fantastic job you've done with your film!!

Great Vid, thanks for showing the dakar some love

well if I can get a co-driver next year I will bring my "beemer" in addition to my "bimmer"

P.S. I actually saw my car in the vid along the side of the road with the trunk open in a sea of e21s, e36s, and e46s.

Back when I was a kid and I was first introduced to BMWs they were all
"Beamers"... Out here on the West Coast I don't think we make such a big
deal about the distinction. I didn't even realize that we said it "wrong" until
I began reading Roundel...

I like saying and hearing the name Beeeeemer better.

What is a Bim? Bimmer still sounds funny to me.

Amazing vid!

Huge thanks to one and all

Will the Pittsburgh show be anything like that?

Great job on the video/movie!!! You guys deserve two enthusiastic thumbs up!!!

And THANKS for showing my X5 some love in the video, too!

The video is SWEET! The editing of the road rally clips was fantastic.

It sounds like the intro was re-dubbed with Shafe's voice unilke that origingal preview clip.

Just finished watching it.... nice....

Great job on the video. Wanted too thank everyone who made my 1st Bimmerfest unforgetable. Looking forward to next year....
