Post here if your crying/whining that YOUR not at bimmerfest

I tried, so hard, to postpone a service call to LA until this week, that it almost cost me my job. :thumbdwn: :thumbdwn: (my boss actual sent someone else)

Now it looks like I will have to go to Glendale in May or early June for a different job, and I feel like I must drive over to Cutter's to at least look around, and intruduce myself (kind of like paying homage to mecca:dunno: :dunno: )

Re: Yeah, I guess I'm whining...

The main reasons I wanted to go were a) the nice, long drive which I haven't had yet and b) that feeling of commraderie (sp?) amongst my Bimmer Bruddahs.
Then I realized, I don't really have any Bimmer Bruddahs (you come close, Rip but you ain't going. SYmpathies for your loss, funerals are just sooo much fun :thumbdwn. I wouldn't know anyone there and, to some degree, I don't think people should be where they don't belong... and I don't, really.

Hey, I won't know anyone there, save Jon and Franco. That's why I'm going -- to finally meet some of these people (HACK, Vince, etc.) in person.

Come down, Eugie... I'll hang witcha!

Bye, I've leaving for the 'fest... :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
Sorry you're not going to be there...

Don't fret, pple!

This BimmerFest event will get better every year. As much as I am looking forward to it tomorrow, I wished I had more time to work on the paddle-shifting on E39, E53 or even E38. Sigh...

I do know a couple of pple who backed out cos thier supercharger didn't arrive in time (MarvelPhx), or their engine mod didn't finish as expected (Samir). Samir claims a camshaft mod on a 330Ci that outputs 280hp at the wheels. And this is prior to ECU software update!

Thanks muchly Plaz; much appreciated.

Yeah, that would be cool, especially as you're a fellow player and all but there's still that 8+ hour round trip. Even for me, that seems *really* stupid. 4, 4-1/2 hours down, hang for 8 hours, and then the 4, 4-1/2 hour drive back. And to do that, I'd have to get up at 4AM to make it by 10AM

Yeah, I can't blame you... don't beat yourself up over it though. It's going to be great fun, but when all is said and done, it really is just a car show.

Enjoy your weekend!

My 330Ci (ordered from Cutter) is sitting at status 151. I should have ordered two months earlier.

I hope everyone has a safe trip. It is far too often that there is a tragedy at events like these. There's nothing to prove... we all know what these cars are capable of. Have fun, but drive safely folks! :thumb:

--SONET

The sight of the empty lot and all the recent flurry of posts from attendess, I'm now :bawling: .

Hope every one has fun and took there cmeras along Remember your friends on the east coast and be ready to share your experience.

Any odds on Mr. Cutter opening a store in Phila. just so we can have the same experience as you lucky beach bums:dunno: With all the success of this event, I'm surprised dealers in other geographical areas have not approached you all about getting in on the action

but instead of crying , I'll post pictures of my car
