I will be talking to a few friends about this so you may be able to count in a few more

e36
Porsche
e30

Are the dates and everything official?

[m3dragon]

Dates are official. I am working on the hotels and other items now.

[mbonanni]

Awesome!

I will be letting my friends know!

[JinormusJ]

You sir, are a man of class and refinement. I like your taste

Doing a road trip is the number one reason why driving somewhere obscure is worth it. I'll be planning on this for sure if I can get my e30 fixed up and running clockwork

This sounds like a lot of fun. Still quite a bit out, I'd like to try for it. No idea yet really.

Looks like the world did not end on the 21st as predicted.

The event is still on and a email with hotel information and additional details has been sent to all those who filled out the Google doc. If you want the info and are planning on attending, please fill out the google doc and I will send you the info.

Have a safe new years.

I wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy New Year. Look forward to seeing some of you in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. Hopefully we will have a great event.

or those who have filled out the Google doc, you should have gotten an email with the hotels rates. Additionally there is a link to a website to order the stack decals for your car. If you did not get this email please let me know.

A few people have already ordered the decals so there are a few numbers less to pick from. I realized I never said you get to pick your car number if you order the decals.

I think 2 others from your neck of the woods.

[m3dragon]

Just a FYI, For those who signed up on the Google form, I sent a email a while back with a webpage on how to order decals. I have updated the page with a desired car number field. No Promises yo will get that number so please have a few choices. You can do all numbers ( 00-99 ) or letter and number ( A0 )

Please email VS PM as I am not on some of these forums very often. norcal.drivers@gmail.com

I may try my best to go if you and a few others are going. What car are you taking?

I'm seriously considering. Not sure whether i'd drive the e30 or the M5. I'm thinking the M5 would be the sensible choice.

A reminder to those who have received the hotel info to call in sooner than later. We have currently 77 cars signed up. Not to shabby.

[m3dragon]

I sent an email to those who sided up with details on some rental car options. If you did not get this email please check spam as I used the Mail Chimp service to make the email pretty and easier for me to send the details of the event.

As this is a Euro car road trip I looked into what Euro cars were available. I was able to get rates on some BMW’s and Mercedes for those who want to do the trip but not in their car. The cost is about $100 a day which normally is between $125-$165.

I was also able to get leads on a few Porsche's for rent but you would have to go to LA and drive with the people coming from there. For the whole week would be about $2400.

There are some Mercedes SUV’s I was able to have for rent for those who want to fly and meet us on the way.

Just a update to remember to reserve your room if you are thinking of going. You can always cancel 72 hours before check in. So if you plan on going make sure to at least hold your room. Details on room rates were mailed to those that signed up on the Google doc.
