    Looking to Start an Upstate NY BMW Monthly Meetup.

    Quick story: So last night I rolled through a car meet in Newburgh NY, at a petsmart parking lot off rt. 300. I pulled up and the crowd seemed very unwelcoming. I'm guessing because there were a bunch of half built civics and a few turboed out Mustangs. So, a 92' integra rolled up about 15 mins after I arrived and a group of guys standing next to another half buil integra gs went wild. Man.... I just didn't see what the fuss was about, the car wasn't that tight.

    So here I am, fresh from a military tour in San Diego, expecting to run in to the same class of car meets I would come across in North County. Listen, I'm aware that things are bit more spaced out in this area and that BMWs are not as plentiful as they are in Cali.

    I'm looking to form an official monthly BMW/Euro meet in the best possible location for the best turnouts. I'm aware that the weather is changing very quickly. But, it would be nice to have one before the first snow fall and hopefully establish a good following for the upcoming spring season.

    So, who's down? Let's get some feed back so we can make this happen. I'm located in Newburgh.

    Where are you located?
    How far will you drive?
    Do you love BMWs? That important lol

    Let's here it people!!!

    I posted a quick pick of what i seen last night. Not bad muscle cars but, definitely not my type of car.

    im bout .5hr from you, in Pine Bush. Newburgh would be cool. I think there is a guy in Poughkeepsie on here. Id attend something in the area every once in a while.

    Those Fox bodies better pull wheel stands down the entire track with cowl hoods like that. Huge and ugly...

      I'm right across the river! My car isn't 100% at the moment and I'm gone for races a lot but I'd like to meet some BMW guys around here.

                  Is this the path mark, mcdonalds parking lot? If so i've gone to those meets before really random times of the week although I don't have a E30 yet my friends and I have had a bit of fun there. Most of those guys aren't the friendliest to strangers mostly keep to themselves but a lot of them are usually always down to shut down the highway for a race.
