Kevlar, let's plan this ASAP with Bama and the people from the other sites. Let's have some fun!.:b_blue:
BGReddy00 03-28-2004, 04:48 AM I really think there should be a BimmerfestSouth for all the southern states and hold it in like orlando or souh florida..people drive miles to goto the other ones..they would certainly go to this one...and it would get a lot more people from the south.. :D
maurolin 03-28-2004, 11:45 AM we are pretty advanced right now on the meet., Bimmerforums, E46fanatics, Baybimmers, Bimmervibe, E30sport, bmwsport, tampaveedubs, VWfixx, Kein Reis, mini, audi, and porsche clubs will attend too.
Now we are looking for location... POSIBLY in Ft. Myers.
Any ideas?
Tdo325i 03-28-2004, 04:25 PM I'm there already :D
BGReddy00 03-28-2004, 08:57 PM Dont forget, germantechnik.com, mbworld.com, and dtmpower.net
jrpaz 04-05-2004, 07:24 AM do you need :help organizing casue i am for it and yes i will be there.
BeeMeR On 19'z 04-08-2004, 01:22 PM im in as well. im in miami and i would drive to have this meeting :redspot
Tdo325i 04-08-2004, 01:31 PM It's official now, it's going to the May 15th in Naples. Mark your calendars :)
BeeMeR On 19'z 04-08-2004, 02:56 PM ok..i wrote it down..now we just need to get a few thousand cars to show up :) ...its a lot of cars..but who says it cant be done
Tdo325i 04-08-2004, 03:53 PM I already talked with my car's PO and he said he will bring down his Z3 and his e36 to me the meet for sure.
maurolin 04-11-2004, 12:43 PM As it shows right now, the poll gives us STILL less than 10% of the members are going to show up for SURE to this meet...
30 people are for sure (it is always less)
People from the other forums already have ofer 50 cars attending.
C'm on guys, pass the voice around,
VOTE, ------> http://baybimmers.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1076 and attend.
You need to understand that we show this thread and votes and Stats to the Sponsoring companies, Vendors, and entities that support the site and members. With this Stats we proove the kind of business we can bring to them, and that's how we got PLENTY of goodies and freebies for Winterblaze.
This is all a projection, and I am not excited about the numbers I am seeing here.
I want to have a meet where MANY companies come to meet you guys, to leard, get deals, group buys, freebies and lots of fun!.
I am in charge of that, but this is really not helping as I cannot "brag" about this poll.
Toniught I will make the Official FRESH Thread about German Auto Fest.
That gives me 1 month to gather as many vendors and sponsors i can for this.
DO NOT FORGET we are going to have to charge a $5 per car park entrance fee (due to the $20 per hour the State requires) and advertisment costs.
Moneys will be collected AT the entrance and within the park for those who arrive early. A parking pass in Necessary and we are going to try to keep ALL OTHER makes separate from the actual event. (this was by request, I support it, yet not my idea)
PLEASE email me questions and suggestions... and if you desire to be part of the STAFF team that will Organize this event. mlinero@tampabay.rr.com
Kevlar 04-15-2004, 06:11 PM Maybe I should update the thread title with the date/time of the event...
lexforlife 04-21-2004, 09:32 PM can any lexus guys come to spectate and maybe place for show separately or together
i might can get maybe 25-40 of guys to make a trip across aligator alley for the day :redspot
maurolin 04-21-2004, 09:53 PM Hell :lol: yeah
lexforlife 04-22-2004, 08:54 AM Hell :lol: yeah
sounds good ,, no promises though for hot import nights is may 15 in orlando and a few of crew has already paid the $53 to enter , i and some other wont be doing that road trip but i did speak to a few others and said hell yeah the drive to naples across alligator alley would be a blast especially if we bumped into a few bimmers on the way , man that would be a pretty sight , a few turboed and supercharged lex's running with some sweet sick bimmers on i75 with no PO PO in sight ,, fantasy island kicking in
when you guys nail down more specifics let us know :)
M34U2NV~ 04-22-2004, 11:58 AM Make it in orlando :D
There are a ton of spots to meet here, and it's central enough for everyone in FL to make it.

lexforlife 04-23-2004, 08:46 AM any updates as yet
icemann633 04-26-2004, 01:45 PM any updates as yet
yea this meet is not happening. The park that we were going to do this at changed their mind and said we cant use it...
I am in the process of planning a meet, hopefully at a karting venue...
I will try and keep you guys up to date...
And for the guy who said meet in Oralndo, we have met there every year, where were you?
Kevlar 04-26-2004, 02:09 PM So the meet is off?
icemann633 04-26-2004, 04:33 PM well for now i gotta say yes...we are tryen to just get a new location but we'll see
gldntkt 04-26-2004, 11:08 PM just on a long shot..but if you ARE possibly interested in Orlando there is a park here that some friends and I used for a fairly large VW/Audi meet back when I had my GTI. It's called Downy Park and it's near the east side of town right off a main road and close to some hotels. It worked out extremely well, wasn't too expensive for us, and most of the parking was on paved lots (and we had well over 100 cars come out). Lots of shady areas and a big pavilion for eating and stuff. PM me if you're interested, I'm less than 15 min. from the park.
icemann633 04-26-2004, 11:24 PM allright i will keep that in mind...we are working on a later date and if karting doesnt work out...we might be back in orlando...
the thing is we have winterblaze in orlando every year...i though naples would be a nice medium for summerblaze...
Maybe the trip to miami would be worth it... It just seems like the tampa area folks are the only ones willing to drive...(no offense to miami, they drive, just not a big %)
And we all know orlando people dont step outside the county haha...
gldntkt 04-27-2004, 05:04 AM haha....sooo true. well i, for one, am willing to drive as far as miami for a good turnout. Hell..i just bought this thing, I'll take any excuse to hop on the highway.
nice dakar, btw..
lexforlife 04-27-2004, 09:15 AM my fellow car brethren
lets pull something real big , organized and eventful together..
lets do something bigger then what the northeast did last weekend..my fellow clublex brethren up in the northeast pulled off a whopper of a meet with almost 150+ car turnout with bmw's having a real strong showing..
i know if you guys are interested can do even bigger after all we have some of the sweetest rides in country down here and we have the beautiful weather to boot
kevlar , we can do something bro , i picture 200+ turnout of lex's, bmw's maybe vw's and audi's.. for a weekend long get together
what you all think , are we competative or what , can we outdo the northeast organize and do a grand daddy of all meets /shows where we bring the northeast meeting the southeast andshow cali how we do it
sorry i am just meet crazy :buttrock :stickoutt :)

WHEN IS IT?????
icemann633 04-27-2004, 11:04 AM well as you guys probably know, Bryan Asay(BAMA) passed away last month. That sent everything to a screaching halt...
Right now im trying to plan something for the the month of July...Ideally i'd like to do it at a karting facility, such as www.mega-racing.com , where not only can we meet, but have some friendly competition on the race track...
I've heard megaracing is really fun but to get to the facility is terrible. As in the roads are full of potholes etc...
It doesnt have to be there but im looking to have, i guess, more than a meet...
I also want to have it in the Ft. Myers, Naples region...in favor of the Miami crowd. They have been so gracious as to driving the past couple years, i figured that woul dbe nice...
If all else fails i will look elsewhere though...
