They did sort of separate the m3's last year, but with a staggering line of 200 cars coming in at random assortments, that WAY too much work. You don't really appreciate it until you are involved in an event of this nature.
Don't get me wrong, it would be cool, but you would also miss out on the casual atmosphere of strolling along and oh look at this etc. Some m3 owners are snobs and probably wouldn't leave their section! lol
I personally like the randomized parking. It takes away from the "competition" feel.sigpic

The last time I remember any M3s parked together on purpose was a few years ago at XXX, the back line had one of every color parked. Last year there was no intentional parking of M3s together. And as for the comment of parking in groups won't encourage the owners to walk around, then that is there loss! :p
I don't have an issue with parking it either way. I just know organizing cars into groups puts a huge strain on parking staff and after how long it took last year, I'd rather see people parked as quickly as possible vs in groups.Chris

CHANGE THE DAMN DATE BACK TO THE FIRST WEEK OF JUNE!
I know i sound like a crying baby every year since the date change.. I used to prep my cars for the picnic be pumped then go fishing for the summer.. Now that you changed the Picnic date from the first week in june to the last i will never be able to attend ever again! I dont know if you guys remember but i was at alot of the earlyer picnics at the XXX.. I loved it back then R3V was raw, original and unique, now abunch of style biters IMO.. have fun dudes im just jealous i wont ever attend a picnic again.. hahaha
Damn commercial fishing!!
but I don't think it's realistic for them to change the date for a small amount of people. There will always be somebody who can't make it because of the date - I just wish it wasn't me.

As long as we are at Lemay-Marymount the date will stay in late June. Get used to it. At least 10-1 the feedback I get is people like the later date in June. More people are done with school. The weather has 3 weeks to be better too.
Speaking of, early registration will open on May 1. A link will be posted, stay tuned.Lance Richert '88 M3, #35 PRO3, i3 etc.

pre-registration process;
Pre-registration drastically cuts down on arrival & parking time. Not that I'm discouraging caravans to the picnic, but understand that when a parade of cars all show up at the same time it's obviously going to slow down the parking situation. Pay at the gate, that's obviously going to take longer. Since MotorsportReg is now being used for so many events, pre-registration really-really makes sense for anybody that knows ahead of time they'll be going.
location;
Although I love the XXX venue for GTG's, I think the new location is a much better location for the Picnic. The original XXX location and date is now being used for the BMW CCA Annual Burgers & BMW's Event. That's another event not to be missed.
time of month;
A lot better chance of better weather.
cost;
More than reasonable.
raffle format;
The more tickets put in the bucket, the more chance of winning.
food service;
The BBQ fits the Picnic.
Pre-Registration....DONE!Steve
