[sleestack]

[Torious528i]

that picture was takin prolly 2 football fields away from my house.. i will go for sure.... i live right across the highway...

[M34ever]

ill go we need to get petar in on this and get ryan to roll down from oregon. The caravan down is so much fun, we made it in 3 1/2 hours driving time...many times with 50+ cars going over 110.

[Ryan]

Man, I'd love to come down!

[M34ever]

drive down to the bay area thursday night, stay over and then friday roll with us in the caravan to SB. I think im going to start begging my dad now for the 540 so i dont have to bring the moosestang again.

[Ryan]

I have been working my ass off at work. I know they would give me a couple days off, especially with this much notice.

[M34ever]

sounds like Teck will be invading SB!!

[Torious528i]

if u guys need a hook up for the chronic.... pm me...

[Torious528i]

if u guys need a hook up for the chronic.... pm me...i promise u wont be dissapointed..

[M34ever]

if u guys need a hook up for the chronic.... pm me...i promise u wont be dissapointed..:lolup::lol::lol::lolup:

[Ryan]

I just realized my car looks like crap right now. I have so many things to get finished on it.

[M34ever]

its better then having to possibly roll there in a moosestang.

[LokisGTI]

Shit I would love to come down from Washington, I got nothing else to do but school but fuck that cars are way better and the only reason im in college.

[M34ever]

i know usually theirs a crew from washington that rolls down together, check around on the bmw forums and you can probably get some info about it. They meet up with the bay area group and head down with us.

[petar7408]

if i had a bmw, i would go.. but im just not in that crowd anymore-


ryan, you shouldnt wuss out :lol: just drive out here to the bay area, and then go with the crew. let me know if you're going though- we'll plan something out here too for an afternoon or so

[Ryan]

I really am planning on taking days off and coming down, it's just a matter of getting the days off, and preparing my car for the trip.

[M34ever]

The caravan will be that friday morning, so maybe plan on being in the bay area the day before. The caravan usually leaves at 8 so its really early. Ill be driving back up on sunday which is when pretty much everyone leaves. Petar you should come down also, one of my friends who is a HUGE honda guy went with me last year and had a lot of fun. On the three days we were there we only spent about 2 hours at the show...the rest was the wonderful SB life!

[Ryan]

Hopefully DTM PacNW will be driving down as well...

[M34ever]

I know a few people from washington meet up with our caravan. I think their were 5 or 6 guys last year. This is what it looked like at the half way point to SB. We invaded this in and out burger, the line of cars stretches around the corner in the distance. You can see two of my friends eating off my car at the bottom of the picture, haahha.

[Torious528i]

yay i cant wait, i'm still deciding if i should drive my car or just pimp it that day and drive the e39.... decisions decisions... o yah be preprared for the gayest cops in ur life....

[Ryan]

I just found out today that we are transferring to our new BMW dealership store April 18th... :rolleyes:

I hope that doesn't mess anything up...

[sleestack]

hmmmm i may be able to go. only prob is i took a few days last weekend off i might have trouble at work if i take more.

[M34ever]

looks like they are planning some big things for this years bimmerfest...rumors of some famous race stars and more.

[wyald bill]

man i wish i had a bimmer

[M34ever]

if anything else go for the hot chicks and fat parties!

[Vader13]

they gave Teck a spot at the show, I will drop the C32...lol

[M34ever]

Their was a clk in a booth last year and a gt3, only non bmws they let into the place. The rest parked out in another lot.

[M34ever]

Tuners that have RSVP'd include Racing Dynamics (Federico Pavoncelli), AC Schnitzer (CEC), Evosport, Hamann (Wheelpower), Technik Engineering to name but a few.

Media to include European Car Magazine, EuroTuner Magazine, Bimmer Magazine, Performance BMW Magazine, with more confirmations expected.

edit: looks like the old rally route will be open, their was some concern since one of the roads got wiped out during the rain.

[M34ever]

the bay area bimmerfest caravan has been officialy announced. We will be leaving from in and out burger in gilroy exactly at 8:30 that friday morning...im guessing its best to be there around 8. If you are in let me know and ill send you the link to the evite.

[M34ever]

im gonna own this entire page soon, more vendors and media have been added. We have over 50 confirmed on the evite for the bay bimmerz caravan and we are still 2 months away!

[petar7408]

im gonna own this entire page soon

not possible now :devil:

[M34ever]

hahahaha, damn you! John Vitolo from DTM and Zubin are flying out from florida for the show, they might fly into SJ and roll down with us. Sean Behm also said he is throwing a huge ass party this year again...this just keeps getting bigger:)

[sleestack]

sweet i want in! im going!

vitolo-- you mean the big fag from dtm? ask vader, that guy is a shit talking ahole

[M34ever]

yea, i dont know him at all, never really talked to the guy. He is friends with my friend zubin though and they are coming out together so i guess sooner or later we will meet.

[Ryan]

vitolo-- you mean the big fag from dtm? ask vader, that guy is a shit talking ahole

Always seemed like an alright guy to me... :dunno:

[petar7408]

im pretty sure he was a big hater..

doesnt even matter, its all long passed :)

[M34ever]

well their will only be one of him...and a whole lotta teck [paranoid]

[Vader13]

Vitolo is a fag, he kinda gto a tad OK, but still I don't really think he's all that. I want to see him in person and give him a gangster glare..lol..I have to be their at 7 AM...uggggg

[M34ever]

you going up the night before sean? we could have a big teck dinner or something friday night. last year we invaded outback.

[Torious528i]

considering i live in santa barbara and know a lot of gooooood places to eat whether u like mex, italian ect... most places u get goood as hell food with some goood looking women serving u but u gotta pay a little more :money: but i am down aint no thang for pimps like us.... when are most people coming into sb and how much are they looking to drop for dinner and fun stuff other than the bimmerfest....

[Ryan]

OK, so where is everybody staying Thursday night?


you going up the night before sean? we could have a big teck dinner or something friday night. last year we invaded outback.

lol, I'd be up for a Teckadinner.

[M34ever]

are you coming to the bay area thursday night? im sure you can crash at someones house around here, their are plenty of bridges to sleep under also. We could go out and do something thursday night here then friday morning roll with the caravan to SB. Most likely in SB ill be staying at my friends house/dorm/apartment thing.

[Tonk]

So I'm thinking of flying out for this event. I have a hardcore love for Bimmers and I may just be crazy enough to do it. I don't want to impose, but can I ride with somebody? Also, is there a hotel thing going on or is everyone just going to the show and going home afterwards?

[M34ever]

their are a bunch of local hotels but you better book quick, they fill up fast. check out www.bimmerfest.com, under the 2005 events section, lots of hotels and stuff.

[Tonk]

Are any of you staying together? Anyone got an open spot in their room?

[Ryan]

I thought I remembered HSR saying some of us could crash at his place, but I don't want to speak for him...

[M34ever]

just find a hot chick at UCSB to stay with....their are plenty.

[Ryan]

Hotel prices are about $150 a night, I'm vetoing that idea. I'll probably just drive down to Fullerton on Thursday, stay with a couple friends, and bring them back up for Bimmerfest lol.


just find a hot chick at UCSB to stay with....their are plenty.


I'll keep that in mind, but it's not a very solid plan. :lol:

[M34ever]

ryan, get y0self to the bay area thur. if its not raining, we'll go on a drive :thumbs::thumbs:

[Ryan]

I am going to be so lost down there. Between that, picking up friends, and staying the night in Fullerton, I'll be so confused. I can't even find my way around town here.

[kruthers]

hey ryan I can get you back up north it is not that hard really! if I can still go with you that is!

[Ryan]

Of course you can. My car feels slow enough with only me in the car. :/

I'll throw in the back seat just for you. (Or Trevor) lol

[dave00]

too bad i won't be down there. that'd be sweet

[sleestack]

ryan, get y0self to the bay area thur. if its not raining, we'll go on a drive :thumbs:
serious lets do that.

[The Godfather]

You guys can stay at my place, I'm an hour away from bimmerfest.










jk, you cna't stay, but I am an hour away.

[Ryan]

LOL, nice guy!

[M34ever]

I am going to be so lost down there. Between that, picking up friends, and staying the night in Fullerton, I'll be so confused. I can't even find my way around town here. is their more then one fullerton? the only one i see is down by LA, faaaaaaaaaaar from here.

[The Godfather]

no there is only one fullerton, and it's freaking far from Santa Barbara. lol Ryan, you California newbie.

[M34ever]

Heres my hella pro map of california and all its key locations.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/m34ever/mapimage.gif

[Ryan]

LOL, Portland is a lot higher in Oregon than that. It makes Fullerton look pretty close to me. 3 hour drive, if that?

[kruthers]

me and my girlfriend just made that drive to santa barbra and it only took two hours from fullerton to Santa Barbra but that was with out traffic

[M34ever]

yea its about 2-3 hours to that area from SB. From San Jose to bimmerfest its about 4 hour drive with the caravan and thats with a 1/2 hour stop for food and gas. Bear is about a hour north of SB.

[Hydra]

There is going to be a teckademics stand right? Cause I want to meet you guys.

[Hydra]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v239/hydra571/mapimage-1.gif

Just thought I would add me :)

[Ryan]

That map makes me lonely.

[sleestack]

:lol:@Ryan.

[Hydra]

california > oregon
You should move down here. Its mucho fun, but some roads down here suck ass and if I lower my car I won't be able to drive fast :(

[Ryan]

I can't afford California! Plus, I'd miss all the rain. [paranoid]

[The Godfather]

yea its about 2-3 hours to that area from SB. From San Jose to bimmerfest its about 4 hour drive with the caravan and thats with a 1/2 hour stop for food and gas. Bear is about a hour north of SB.
4 HOURS? from SJ TO SB? That's a bit fast. At 80mph, from Arroyo Grande to SB is one hour. From AG to SJ is about 4 hours. There's that 55mph stretch full of cops on the way.

[Hydra]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v239/hydra571/hahahaha.jpg

Sorry, what is this rain?

[Hydra]

4 HOURS? from SJ TO SB? That's a bit fast. At 80mph, from Arroyo Grande to SB is one hour. From AG to SJ is about 4 hours. There's that 55mph stretch full of cops on the way.


I'm sure someone in the group will have a V1 to deal with the cops

[sleestack]

got that coverd lol :thumbs:

[M34ever]

4 HOURS? from SJ TO SB? That's a bit fast. At 80mph, from Arroyo Grande to SB is one hour. From AG to SJ is about 4 hours. There's that 55mph stretch full of cops on the way. actual driving time was about 3 1/2 hours last year. We left from gilroy though which is about 20 mins south of SJ. When their are 50+ bimmers in a row doing 110, most with v1's, scanners and everyone watching for cops, you get places quick:) Last year we saw maybe 3-4 cops the entire way and didnt have the slightest bit of trouble at all. We do try to keep it very safe though and everyone has a motorola so we can warn eachother about things coming up or whatever.

[Hydra]

What type of motorola?

[M34ever]

just the normal two way radios they sell. I think you can get two of them for like 30 bucks at best buy.

[M34ever]

y0 spif, can i ride in your ride then?? when you going back up? i need to be back here at like 2 sunday :/

[M34ever]

your welcome to ride down with me, I wasnt planning on leaving until around 12 or 1 with the bay bimmerz caravan coming back up highway 1. I think ryan said something about leaving earlier because he had to be back for work so maybe you could catch a ride with him on the way back? Im sure their are others also who will be going back early. Hopefully within the next few hours ill know what car im taking. My friend is going to be with me in his mcoupe also.

[Ryan]

The Pac NW guys are leaving here at 4:30 PM! Which means I"ll probably be in SJ at like 2-3 AM on Friday... ugh.

I'll be heading back up towards SJ as soon as I can after the event on Sat. since I need to be back to work on Mon.

This will be interesting.

[M34ever]

those Pac NW guys are nuts. it has to be atleast a 8 hour drive for you to get to san jose, you should just leave thursday morning by yourself.

[sleestack]

but then , if we did that, you dropping me off is way out of the way, slow you down an hour or 2



shit, i need to find a ride back up here, or i cannot go :hsdance:
im not driving, because i have hella miles on my car and driving down there would suck, especially since i couldnt even park my car there lol

[M34ever]

cool thanks! so maybe go down on you... oh i meant, go down with you well....you do know the rules of the road....


you should leave earlier, get here like 6-7pm and we chill/ party, then in the morning go and meet the pack driving down I found out I have to work thursday night so no sausagefest for me that night:( I hope I can get everything done by then...ive got sooooo much stuff to do.

I dunno if I posted this or not but the Gilroy caravan will be meeting at in and out burger friday at 7:30. Everyone will be leaving at 8:30 SHARP. Trust me, you dont want to be a minute late like I was last year with my friend. Hopefully ill be there between 730-8. Cant wait!

[M34ever]

I talked to my friend today and he wont be getting out of class until 3, so that means I wont be able to go to UCSB until then. Maybe once we get there all the teck guys could meet up for lunch or something instead? Im not sure what time Vader and HSR are planning on arriving but we could meet up around 1-2 and chill somewhere. So far it looks like, me, my friend omied in his mcoupe, petar, sleek and ryan will all be in the caravan and arrive around 12-1230. Dunno about anyone else.

yOU do NOT wanna take Highway 1 back up to the bay area, it'll take forever to get backup there,a nd it's a single lane highway, at 55mph, and rather dangerous. clowns are gonna wanna show off and someone is gonna fall off the fucking cliff.

[Ryan]

Good to know. My plan is to bring the car and myself back home in one solid piece.

Looks like I'm going to take Monday off work and start coming home Saturday.

I always heard it was a nice drive and all, most people going are much older but i'll avoid it. I heard last year it took them 6 hours which is a little to long for me.

[petar7408]

shit, where did the highway 1 talk come in?

going back up will take forever--plus its crazy, lots of cliffs lol



m3, you arent going with the caravan then? shit, i dont know how this will all work out.. what are people planning on doing all day, once they get there at like 1 :dunno:

oh well, sounds like its a disaster waiting to happen on my part, i better just bow out

[M34ever]

im still going on the caravan down which will be on highway 101 like planned. Bay Bimmerz was planning on caravaning up highway 1 on sunday on the way back but I will probably skip out on that and just drive back with my friend. Petar you are still welcome to come down with me if you have a ride back up, I think sleek said he could give you a ride or maybe ryan. I was thinking once we get down there maybe we could hook up with Vader and HSR, get lunch and chill. I just finished detailing the exterior of the 540, damn it looks nice. Weds im doing the interior $$

[Ryan]

OK. Here are my plans.

Thusday - Leave Portland in late evening (4:30PM+)
Friday - Arrive in San Jose early morning (2:30AM+?)

Friday - Leave with Bay Bimmerz caravan (6:00AM)
Friday - Arrive in Santa Barbara (12-1PM)

Friday - Leave Santa Barbara (?)
Friday - Arrive in Fullerton and stay overnight.

Saturday - Leave for Bimmerfest (6:00AM)
Saturday - Do the whole Bimmerfest thing. (?)
Saturday - Drive back to Fullerton and stay overnight (?)

Sunday - Leave Fullerton (Afternoon)
Sunday - Arrive in San Jose (Evening)

Monday - Leave San Jose (Morning)
Monday - Arrive in Portland (Evening)

I think that looks about right. Any feedback?

[M34ever]

looks good, you have a place to stay in san jose? The bay bimmerz caravan is meeting at 730 and its only about a 1/2 hour away from san jose. Thats going to be a loooooooooot of driving, make sure to get some sleep, ahahahaha. Also we should arrive in SB between 12-1. I dont have anything to do until around 3 so I guess we can all chill or something for awhile.

Dude you have no idea how long that drive to Fullerton is gonna take. Doesn't matter if it's 60 miles or 120 miles, it's gonna be a parking lot over there. You're crazy!

Yikes.

[The Godfather]

Yeah it's like 2-3 hours w/o traffic going 75-80mph. but it's LA, and you're gonna be going slow.

[Ryan]

Alright, I guess we'll be doing the early bird special then. Thanks for the warning.

[M34ever]

Yikes.damn dude...thats a loooooooooooong ass drive. especially traveling at those speeds and everything, you need to be ontop of your game.

[Ryan]

I'm not a big fan of energy drinks or caffeine, but now is as good of time as any to start!

[M34ever]

ryan, get on aim, we have a bimmerfest chat going!

[LokisGTI]

fuck i wish i could go but im way to backed up on the homework, fuck i hate college

[M34ever]

got the new rear roundel for the 540 today and put it on, the old one was all faded. Tomorrow I do the interior detail and its on!!!

[empire]

Dammit, why couldn't this be in late summer, I would've been all over the Bay Bimmers Caravan. Next year for sure if it's on the west coast, I'll split the driving hours with you Ryan :headbang:

[Ryan]

I wish I had a co-driver... this trip will be grueling.

[M34ever]

do you have to go down to fullerton ryan? if you petar and sleek split the room at motel 6 it will be like 20 bucks per person a night. that will cut out up to 12 hours of driving time for you.

[Ryan]

I've been looking forward to seeing my friends, and one of them will be coming up for Bimmerfest with me anyways.

Looks like we're leaving a little earlier on Thursday, so it won't be as bad as I thought.

[M34ever]

cool, i guess sleek and petar can have their privacy then if they come down! hahahahah. I asked my friend down in SB about a spa we could use for volleyball, he doesnt know of any:(

[Ryan]

We'll have to rent one of those birthday rental pool things.

[M34ever]

petar had a good idea of just using a bathtub. Wheres sean, he mentioned something about his mom having a spa.

:lol:

That's just wrong...

[M34ever]

i need to start burning some cd's for the drive down. all my cd's are mp3 for my car but the 540 needs normal cd's. I hope petar enjoys spice girls and LFO.

[Ryan]

I'll burn some Enya, then I'll relax on the way down... and fall asleep at about 80MPH...

I need music that will keep my awake.

[M34ever]

you guys figure out a time to leave yet? You should burn a lot of tupac CD's so you fit in with the rest of us gangsta's in cali.

[petar7408]

i can mix cd's of just different kinds of gunshots [paranoid]



that and spice girls > *

[M34ever]

yes i really do have a spice girls cd [paranoid]

I was thinking we all need to get eachothers numbers, especially ryan if he gets lost or something in the bay area we could attempt to help him out before he gets shot.

[M34ever]

cant view unless member of bimmer forums. I wish i could be there, this is hella gay. There might have been a slimass chance of me being able to had i have not got a fuckin spanish project and had i known that i did absolutly nothing in school today.

[M34ever]

heres the post...

Me, Iwannadinanm3, 2pak, vitolo, ty vil and a bunch of others were all at outback eating dinner here in SB before bimmerfest. Since ty just turned 21 yesterday he was drinking it up at outback. He took a shot of something and chased it with a long island ice tea then it alllllllll came up. It literaly flew across the table, we all had to run for cover. I tried getting a pic of him next to it as they were cleaning but it was to dark. It was damn fun meeting everyone there though...and sorry ty but i said id post it!

[Hydra]

Hey, just got back from SB. It was great, I met Ryan, Sleek, and Vader. Thanks for the stickers and DVD Vader! We went to the parking lot where my car was and put them on right away! I can post pics later its too dark right now.

[Ryan]

Nice meeting you guys. Post some pics!

I'm so tired from driving, but it's been fun! Still have about 1000 miles north to go.

[M34ever]

im leaving SB today and heading back home with my friend in his mcoupe..the 540's radiator blew so its stuck down here at the dealership until atleast monday. I guess next weekend we are coming back down to pick it up or something. It was great meeting everyone, ill be sure to do a write up and post pics when i get home.

[Ryan]

That sucks... did one of the inlets snap?

Moosetang 540i-

[M34ever]

hahahaha, nice pic! im not sure what happened. I got a low coolant level light and when i dropped erik off at his car we stopped for awhile and a small puddle formed. We drove it to the dealership right down the road and they said they didnt have anyone who could look at it until monday. So i went to a gas station with omied and we filled the radiator and we were trying to bleed the air out. It was taking forever and the air wasnt coming out and then we notice all the water was drained from the radiator after bleeding it multiple times. As soon as we poured water in it just drained right out the bottom. So i drove it the minute to the dealership and left it there as coolant and water was pouring out all over the parking lot. I have to go drop the key off in a little bit and hopfully they can fix it this week.
