Hello all,

I've been asked to relocate to Honolulu. Move should be effective around mid-August. I am very excited as I have a lot of family on Oahu. Looking forward to meeting you guys! :D

Aloha, Adam! We're probably having a Labor Day run for the BMW CCA members and the MINI guys. You're welcome to tag along.

thrlls, should we give Adam the Mystery Rally sheet to complete?

adam.... u so lucky.... can I come? I need to be hooked up!! People in Hawaii is so nice and such a nice place to be...

I do admit, after 3 months there, it got a little boring since its there is only so far u can drive round & round the island.....

Adam,

Who do you work for? Can I come with you??:)

Seriously if your company needs someone else to fill a Hawaii position, just let me know.

Beastmaster - Thanks for the invite. I don't think my cars will be over there by Labor day...I will probably still have a rental at that point, however I will look forward to the next BMW event! I'll visit this forum regularly. BTW, where do all you Oahu guys live?


sirtiger and 95Dinan3 - Sure you guys can come with me....since I will need help moving. :D J/K I know what you mean about driving around the island...but I'm sure I will find a lot of cool things to do to occupy my time there.

Hey Adam

just wanted to introduce myself my name is Oni
and yea get plenty stuff here that can occupy your time....:)
hopefully im here when Beastmaster guys has that island run
im gonna be back home on Molokai for a reunion.
BTW what kind of Bimmer do you have?

Aloha Adam,

Cool to have another BFC member here. I am living out in the Aiea/Pearl City area. The real estate market is hot right now so you shouldn't have much trouble finding a place.

Anyway, welcome...look forward to meeting you

Hey Oni. Yeah I look forward to meeting you guys and getting together for an island run at some point! I'm doing my final So Cal canyon run this weekend after the annual LA Sports Car Club meet. Boy will I miss those canyons :( But more so looking forward to Hawaii!

By the way I have a Cosmos S52 M Roadster. See you soon.

John I've always loved your coupe. I saw those nice pictures of your car at auto-x recently...I may be interested in the track (including drags) at some point. I'll be in touch.

Adam...welcome

SCCA has autox once a month and lapping sessions in between wheel to wheel races about once every six weeks or so...I think there's drag racing almost every weekend.

Gene

Gene
was great meeting with ya
and much mahalos for the exhaust for my car
i think it should do for now till i can afford a better one
:)
BTW how much do it cost to do the drag and auto-x thing?

Oni


Adam///M
yea i hope im on the island when they do that island run

:)

Aloha Adam!

Welcome to O'ahu. Like Gene said there are a few venues to get your need for speed quelled for a while. Too bad your car won't be here for the Labor Day rally. Heck, come along anyway with the rental and see the island. Bring your family also, it should be fun!
Beastmaster > No mystery runs..just yet..yuk! yuk! yuk!

Looking forward to meeting you Adam, be sure to check back!

Aloha

:checkered

Awww, c'mon! I'm sure he'd be able to answer a couple of the questions.

Autox is $15 for SCCA members and I think $20 for non-members...that's for 4 timed runs, fun runs at the end of the day are $1 each...next autox is Sunday Aug 10...

Don't know how much it is to drag race, but I heard it's very reasonable...

Gene

Gene

Mahalos a whole heap
:)

hello adam welcome to hawaii. :)

whoa there's a labor day event? :eek:
have the details been ironed out yet?

For that event, thrlls is in charge. It was his idea.

hey drag racing is every saturday if there are no events being runned that night and its $10 to run all night just as long as you have gas..lol but anyway when you first get to the track you would need to go to an orientation to see how the track is ran and operated.. hope this helps you with the track issue and if you see a blue 1988 325i say whats up and hope you like it here in Hawaii....

Sup Adam,
Have fun pronouncing Hawaiian street names like Likelike, Kalanianiole(sp?), etc. Enjoy your stay!

Gerald

Hey guys, thanks for the info!

I'll be arriving soon but my stuff (including BMW) will be in storage for a while. Can't wait to get there and meet all of you.

See you soon!

Hello again...I just found a place last week and so I'll be in Hawaii permanently November 1st. Can't wait! I'm on the Winward side. So beautiful there.

My BMW will love the daily Pali drive :D But he will have to stay stock for now since I'll be cash short for mods :(

See you guys soon!

What is this, I give the idea, the President at present, which is Da Beastmastah (like Larry Price would say) is the one to bring the idea to fruitation! I am not President material....:(
But IslandS52 is!
I am more of the backstage type...

Hey Adam, good to hear you will be here in Nov. Just watch out when coming down the Pali on the town side....a lot of radars there eating donuts.
What town on the Windward side? Kailua, Kaneohe? Where are you going to be working?
I'll be looking for your Cosmo S52 road-star!

:checkered

(Nice try Beastmaster!)

Hey thrlls, nice to know there are some other Roadsters in Oahu! In fact I saw a Imola Red M Roadster on Kalanianole Hwy near Aina Haina last week.

Yeah my sister lives in Kaneohe and has warned me about the police here. At least that White Van is gone. She said she was mailed something like 3 tickets from it.

I bought a place in Kailua Beach....at the very end in a little area known as Kaimalino...it's where the Kawainui Canal meets the ocean. This is my first home purchase and I went overboard. I can't afford it so I think I'm going to have rent one of the rooms. :az: I'll be working on Bishop Street in Honolulu so I just take the Pali all the way down...as it turns into Bishop just past the H1. Very convenient compared to what I'm used to in LA.

Mahalo!

Hey Adam, very nice ///M roadster and welcome! Kaimalino is very nice, you will enjoy it very much! Starting November, I'll keep a sharp eye out for you while I make my daily commute from Kailua to Bishop Street. See ya.......
