    Maryhill Loops Video 2012

    So, here's the video from last Summer's Maryhill Loops run. So much fun!

    I wish it were still summer. Enjoy the video I threw together.

    BMW's and a Porsche 993 have some fun on one of America's best roads.

        Yeah, sorta funny that E30s dominated model wise, but there aren't any in the video. And no, that shot of the corvette engine in an E30 doesn't count ;-)

        Oh well. I plan on being there next year. Maybe we can do our own video, or donate footage. I know I had side-view, roof-view, and inside-view go-pro footage of like 4 runs. None of other cars though. By the time tandem runs started I was too dehydrated to ask people to go with me, and no one asked me :)

        Great video though!

            Happens in the summer. Have to be a BMWCCA member AND be one of the first 25 registered participants. Someone informed R3V last year. Took 3 days to fill up.

              Cool!


              They probably wouldn't let me bring the bike too, eh? :tsk:

                    yup, I'm to your right in the NHRA shirt looking mildly interested in whats going on. I had the red eta that had a screaming v-belt and a loud lifter. That poor motor had the most abuse in its life that day

                      Ha! Yep! Probably the most abuse for mine as well, considering the climb and the heat. Took it in good stride though. Of course, now my oil pan gasket is shot to ever living #%*@ so... :nice:

                      I'll be back this next year though, and my car will be just as ugly.

                          Well I'm bummed, I'll be in Brussels this summer the same time this is going on. First world problems.

                          Great video BTW, love the 70's-esque feel. Needs more E30's.
