WA - Leavenworth Drive 7/17

[slammed_e30]

Just an FYI for you people in WA - Seattle area that might want to do this, and haven't heard about it. It has been circulating in the Yahoo NW BMW news group.

* meet at the South parking lot of Northgate Mall around 8:30 and leave at 9:00am
* We should roll into Leavenworth around noon
* Everybody can eat, shop, or whatever and discuss a departure time
* If you plan on staying overnight, plan on making your own accommodations

This is the Bahn Brenner drive I'm guessing?

[cramer]

no, the Bahn Brenner drive is to Mt Rainier on July 11th open to all euros http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1454828

this is the drive the NW E30 list has put together. I'm going to try and make it out since I missed the Evolution Sports drive to Leavenworth that was the same day as the E30 picnic.

[slammed_e30]

Yeah this is by the e30nw group and i think about six people so far are going.

Ahh.. cool. I might be interested.

Yea, I forgot about the Bahn Brenner drive going to Rainier. All I remember is it was the day before Waterwagens.

[e30evolution]

water wagens is on the 12th? pacific international here i come... i would like to go on the leavenworth drive..... but it is so many miles, maybe if i get someone else to ride with me

[e30evolution]

waterwagens is august first...... no where near the bahn brehner drive

Then either Waterwagens or the BB drive used to be on a different date.

[cramer]

waterwagens is generally the 1st weekend in august.. but last year is was sept 1st due to Pacific Raceways not having an open spot.

Bahnbrenner had a BBQ last year the day before waterwagens, this is what you may be thinking of. Each year waterwagens and the title sponsor puts on a drive (usually 2-3 weeks before the show) last year was a BBM drive to Ocean Shores, this year it's the BBM drive to Rainier.

Ahh.. it must have been 2 or 3 years ago, but I'm 100% certian BBM had a drive to Rainier the day before Waterwagens. Im not suprised they dont do it like this anymore, as a lot of the diehard guys were probably busy with last minute detailing.

[cramer]

that was the Crystal Mountain drive (2002) and you're right it was the day before waterwagens... that year was the drive to Leavenworth a couple weeks before for the waterwagens (Evolution Sports was the title sponsor that year) official drive.

[DarkWing6]

I'll try to make it if I ever get this car.

[F|2eeSTy|e]

Bump for the drive coming up this weekend.

Last I heard there were about 6 confirmed cars, maybe more - that was last week sometime.
