It's nearly impossible to believe that it's been a year since we held our first Demo Day. Last year's event was a huge success, and we're planning for a bigger turnout this year.

We'll have a lot of tools for you to see and test, and will probably have at least one on-car demonstration.

We're thrilled to announce that we'll be joined by the good folks from Mid Atlantic Trading - the North East's leading Sparco distributor. They'll be representing products from Sparco, Corbeau, Arai, OMP, and more.

The facility that we'll be using is a large warehouse with room for several cars on display indoors, and plenty of parking outside. It's located in Flemington, NJ, which is in Hunterdon County. We'll have directions for you as we get a little closer.

For the Bimmertools display, we plan on presenting products from:

Peake Research
Motive Products
SK Handtools
Assenmacher Specialty Tool
OTC
ATD
AC Hydraulic
Ingersoll Rand
UUC Motorwerks
And more!

We'll have some door prizes and promotional giveaways, as well as several items for sale on-site. Also, if you plan to attend, anything you order from our website between now and a few days before the show, and we'll deliver it to you there free of shipping charges. Just email us beforehand to arrange it.

If you plan on coming, do try to post here so we can judge attendance.

As we confirm details and products that will be on hand for purchase, we'll post it here.

Thanks for looking, and we'll see you in Flemington on December 2nd!

Mike,

I sold the M3/4 in the spring to finance the build up of my track car.
Look forward to seeing you again.

Thanks! We have a few bushing/bearing tools listed, though many of them are on the high-end side (price wise). We're working on a few alternatives. Email me - ken@bimmertools.com - and give me some details about your car. I'll see if I can find some more affordable options for you.

I think we can arrange an SRS reset at the show...

Thanks to everyone else, too - see you there!

Ken

Free bump. Mario told me about this. I'm going to be swinging through the area on the 2nd, I'll drop in if I can.

Ken

Less than 1 week away!

Ken

I am going to try and make it.. but I will not know until later this week

Ken,

I may be going through the Flemington area on Sunday but I don't know when. What time are you planning the brake bleeding demo?

-Doug

We haven't set any kind of schedule. I was thinking to do it when we had a decent amount of people present.

We can certainly spread the job out - doing one wheel at a time so that more people can see it.

Our 'volunteer' car will be there all day, so that won't be an issue. I hope to have my E46 inside as well, we can always hit that one, too.

Ken

Looking for 1/4" drive, crowsfeet wrenches, open style. Do you have those types of things?

I can make it.. but I cannot get there before 1. I work till 10am and then it is just over a 2 hour trip from Atlantic City to Flemington.. so I am still on the fence about going for just a couple of hours

Looking for 1/4" drive, crowsfeet wrenches, open style. Do you have those types of things?

Hmmm - I've never seen 1/4" drive crows foot wrenches. We have, and can get, several sets in 3/8" drive. I won't have any at the show, but if you email me - ken@bimmertools.com - I can help you find something appropriate.

I really appreciate that you're considering traveling so far! If you can make it, that's cool, if not - I completely understand. If there's something specific that you - or anyone traveling any distance - is looking to see or buy, please let me know. I may not have it on hand, and I'd hate to disappoint any of you.

The real purpose of this Demo Day is to get to meet people and show off some of the quality tools we offer. With a catalog that extends far beyond what we list on our website - let alone what I can pack up and bring to this event - what you'll see is just a taste of what we can offer you.

Thanks again to all of you for this awesome support!

Ken

I think Ill be driving up with Mike.

Ok - here's the latest update:

On Site Directions: Please map the address to see your best approach. The facility is not far off of Rt. 202 South, right near the intersection of Royal and Colony Roads. It is a large, white building with flags out front. We should have a BMW parked at the entrance to let you know you've arrived.

Enter the facility's parking lot that runs along the left side of the building. You can park in any available space.

Important: Please use the entrance on the left side of the building near a loading dock door - not the front entrance. It will be locked. We will have the appropriate door marked.

Once inside, follow the signs or markers to the rear of the warehouse. This is where we'll be set up. Please respect the facility, as it is a working business.

Show Pricing: Products available for sale on site will be discounted at least 5% below our normal listed pricing. Items ordered at the show will also be discounted at least 5%. NJ Sales Tax applies to all on site sales, and to all orders shipped in state.

We'll raffle off a few door prizes throughout the day, including a $25 gift certificate to our store, so be sure to get a ticket when you get there.

That's it! We're very excited, and hope to see you all there.

Ken

Ken, you bringing the e30? Be cool if we had 3 generations of 3 series back there.

I'll call you later.

I'm gonna try to have it there, Mario. It'll have plenty of exposed fasteners for people to wrench on!

FYI - we are set up and open! The roads are pretty clear, and the snow isn't so bad. Put your snow tires on and come out!

Sorry guys, I got like 3 inches when I woke up, so I went back to bed. Hope the weather is better for some people to come out.

yeah i was gonna come, but i got to drive up to albany, NY.....and flemington is in the opposite direction soooo.....next time around

No worries, guys - we had a few brave souls who came out through the slush and ice. We'll look at another event come Spring.

Thanks to everyone who made it out!

Ken
