I live about 2-3 miles from the Baysox stadium so I'll meet you guys there! Although a run on the Beltway from LaMadeline's and up Rt 50 to Bowie would be interesting for a couple of M3's! I do have a passport Solo that I swap between vehicles! LOL

Butch, I got a question. Why are we going there so early when 8-10 is show and shine registration and the judging doesn't start till 10:30? "NOT A SERMON, JUST A THOUGHT"

Claudio you have a good point but I definitely want to get there before it gets to crowded so we can get some good spots so let's say meet in Rockville at 9 and leave by 9:15?

Butch, let's meet at 8:45 and leave at 9:00. That gives us a little more time. See you then. Maybe, others will show up and have a real showing rolling down 50.

Hey, since it seems that Butch and I are the only one's meeting up for the drive, we are changing things up. Since we live 5 min apart, we are going to meet in Aspen Hill. If anyone was planning on meeting up with us, PM me or Butch or post. We will then change our plans to meet up with you. Otherwise, see you guys at the meet.
P.S. we plan on meeting at 7:30, so we can get the parking we want at the meet.

Hey here is the links I mentioned regarding those wheels VS8's. Nice looking CLS type but dude the silence is deafening from the distributor. If he keeps this up he'll get NO orders! http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthr...=159539&page=2 http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=143845

This was a great event and it was very nice to meet some new people and chill with some old friends. Robert loved to listen to your experiences and have a safe tour in Afghanistan and we'll see you again very soon! Claudio once again you are the man, we'll be getting together soon if not for an event but just a drive or drinks whatever. Drew sorry I wasn't able to watch your run but hope you posted a fast time, hopefully I'll join you on the course at the next event.
