After seeing some of the frustrated drivers (Camry) on PCH from the last drive, the general public is going to really love us driving down the 405 FWY in July. But hey, they have three (3) other lanes to choose from right?

On Saturday July 14th when we meet at 9am, don't be confused by the Mfest rally that is also meeting up at the West LA park. That morning the Mfest crew will also be meeting at the same meeting point in LA a little earlier than us, as they are doing a caravan to the HRE open house. I plan on being at the West LA park around 8:30am and will park in the parking spots closest to the street so that there is no confusion with our rally leaving with their crew. Again, make sure you do not leave with the Mfest caravan if you're destination is Stone Brewery.

Not only that, but the L4P (Luxury for Play) site is also putting together some caravans to HRE, but I don't think they are leaving from our location:

Just think, if everyone showed up for lunch we could close down the restraunt for a TOTAL car lunch.

For those bringing their g/fs or wives (Mackenzie is comin on this one) their guests may not want to make the stop. Do you guys know what time the HRE open house ends?

Lunch sounds good.

The 405 S is going to look Krazy.....

[Supercar Ace]

All the more reason to drive conservatively. I already know there will be reports of racing on the 405...

Confusing. Mfest = non-M.

[Mr C]

BE ADVISED, there is going to be some MAJOR construction going on right near our meeting point, starting Friday, June 22nd, lasting for 90 days.

Mfest is a "motorsportfest" for all makes and models not specifically BMW or BMW M models. Most participants go in BMWs but its not exclusive to BMWs.

I normally roll with mfest and love those guys. However I just didnt want anyone to confuse their caravan with ours that day. Some of the regular Mfest M cars are rolling with us instead, thats why i said "non-Ms"

I agree but the open house ends I think at 2 or something like that. We should call HRE and see how long they plan to stay open.

We could always meet in Calabasas, ha-ha, or somewhere else.

I'll get in touch with HRE in the next few days to inquire about it. If they know that 50-100 M cars will be showing up later, they may keep the thing going.

I recommend you make it to HRE Open House earlier than later.

The HRE Open House is from 9am til 2pm. Honestly, should come to the HRE Open House first then go to Stone after.

We have plenty of parking at our facility. The front and back of our building will be open for parking.

Although we understand what you are saying Lon, the purpose of our rally was not to go to the HRE open house, even though it was suggested. Many of the members of the rally have agreed that they would rather go directly to lunch and eat because we will have wives, girlfriends, etc riding along, most of which do not want to go to a meet. After 3 hours of driving for most wives, girlfriends, etc, you can understand that they will not want to make an additional stop before they get to have lunch (they get cranky ya know . However I'm sure that there will be some cars that decide to break off to the open house before lunch and the rest of us can stop by after.
