E30 Third Thursdays (Middle TN) ***NEW LOCATION***

[Hunterl1990]

I think the 16th would work for me. My clutch fan did just slice my rad hose, but I think I have another one in a box somewhere. Shouldn't be a problem getting it done before then.

Bottombunk the Columbia Cars and Coffee starts this month if you don't mind driving. No where near as busy as the Speedway and still enjoyable. I'm comfortable taking the kids and pushing a stroller around there unlike the Speedway show.

Don a group of us will be at vintage from middle tn. Stop by the e30 cca tent and talk to Scabzzz. I'll be bringing an F15 and my family this year so I'll just be a spectator.

Since the original GTG was called Third Thursday we could plan for Thursday the 16th of April. Current contenders for locations with ample parking/ food that will be welcoming are Buffalo Wild Wings in Cool Springs and Mcdougal's in Brentwood. I would say 6:00 pm unless we need time for everyone to get there we could do 6:30 pm.

My nerd extends to warhammer 40k events i run throughout the year out of town. Can't travel to car events out of state as in already gone for those events fairly often.

I've seen about 5 e30 in murfreesboro. Met a couple of them. I was just trying to get something going. Making a suggestion on somewhere to hang. But if others have an idea go for it. I no longer have a desire to be at huge car meets like cars and coffee at the speedway. Once in a while maybe. Culture has changed when it comes to larger scale.

I’m out of Columbia but drive into South Nashville for work everyday. Franklin/ Cool springs has usually been the middle ground for everyone. I‘ve been a Technician at BMW since 2013 so if anyone every needs some technical guidance or help I’m always down to lend a hand when my schedule allows it.

[Bottombunk]

Let's all figure out a day soon to meet up. Even just to introduce and hang for a short bit. Basically get the ball rolling

[e30saam]

I live in Nashville. Would be down to meet up! Need to meet more old BMW peoples!

[Bottombunk]

Im in murfreesboro pm me and we can meet up and hang one day. Honestly get a few if.us up here and see if we can start a group.

[Hunterl1990]

I’d be down! I recently moved to Columbia from Colorado Springs and have been looking for some e30 friends.

[Bottombunk]

There is a brewery here in murfreesboro. Am associate of mine is one of the owners. He has car meets on some Sundays there. They have a big parking lot in front. Food truck and beer of course. Its also located near other food sources like Chuys and chili's. I could get with him and see if it is OK to have a meet up? Cedar glade brewery is the name of it.

How large is the event? We used to drive up to The Vintage in North Carolina but the drama with that group has been a bummer as of late and I've cancelled my trip this year. Also, e30 only?

[dmjensen]

Yes we're trying to revive it. No purposed date or location yet. Most likely looking for a place with food and ample parking somewhere between South Nashville and Franklin. Personally I'd like to plan for Fall since this photo was taken in the fall and I have plans through the rest of spring and most of summer.

[Bottombunk]

So is this something your looking to revive so to speak? If so, what day and where is the new proposed spot?

[dmjensen]

Utopia was the name of the street/ garage that they used to do it at. It’s owned by a fellow enthusiast but the shop has filled up since we used to go.

The original event was called third Thursday. We’ve met at a few places before but this was a cool spot ( near Thompson lane in south Nashville ).
