    Bimmerfest Diaries (something of everything)

    Well this was my 6th? year attending Bimmerfest, and oh man was it big. First year with my own car though, which was fun driving the caravan down from Norcal. I got pulled over about 3/4th's the way there, apparently my car mount for my camera cannot be placed on the left side of the car, so the officer just told me to take it off and he warned us that the whole department knew about the caravan because they were getting calls from drivers anyways, he was a nice cop who actually owned an E36 97 M3 ironically. So here is a pretty good timeline of how my trip went, with some commentary.

    Closest thing to that would probably be Camerons(highboostingm3) unveiling of the turbo monster. His car is at least twice as long as a e30 fender though.

    Looks like you guys had a blast? What happened to Kpip?

    Kpip was having electrical problems, at first he broke down and nothing electrical was working, so he got towed and got a new battery. So the next day he was driving on this one road at night and all of a sudden his headlights go out and the car shuts off. He slams on the breaks and sort of hits a curb. Turns out its a bad alternator. He had his buddy from Chico drive a flat bed all the way to santa barbara to pick him up saturday night, then drove back on sunday. I'm sure we'll see pics soon.

    Finally, a thread from someone who knows how to take pictures. The first set of rolling shots are fantastic.

    Great pics, glad you didn't get a ticket. Where did you get that mount at?

    sum1 stole your bumper and trunk?


    I'm not certain, but I think this might be a good friend of mine named Albert, from high school that I havent seen in a few years. That'd be hialrious if it is.
