Such a good time today, ride was really spectacular with so many cars! It was really nice meeting everyone. Big thanks to all who made it out and joined us! And thank you "Boof" for getting it all started and making it happen!! I have some great pics and go pro footage I'll get posted up on here some time tomorrow as soon as I get a chance!

Robbinsville NC has never seen an M-vasion like this before!

Pleasure to meet everyone, that was an extremely fun day! Special thanks to Mark for setting this up, we should consider doing this once a year!

Here are some of the pictures I took with my phone:

This looks soooo awesome. Wonder if any western Canadian M3 gatherings occur?

BOOF-M3 · 11-19-2017, 05:57 PM

You had to be there.

Ultra fun 9000.

Great meeting everyone and it was an absolute blast (short of Ivey almost blowing chunks a couple times). Just finished watching some of the GoPro footage on my laptop here in the cabin. I'll upload them once I get back to "real" internet in a couple days.

Thanks again to everyone for making it a blast. I'm still ripping my Dragon Burger all over the place..........

PS I got some great footage of ToddinTN and Get lit on our second run up at the front of the pack. We had a good run!

spazzyfry123 · 11-19-2017, 06:49 PM

Woot!

BOOF-M3 · 11-19-2017, 07:00 PM

Three pedal steve, ppatel and BOOF-M3. Three amigos waiting on the Tail crew.

ToddinTN · 11-19-2017, 09:55 PM

Here's a few of my shots. Still working through my videos. After lunch I took the Cherohala Skyway home, and it looked like a scene out of Frozen complete with snow flurries. Great day, great cars and great company. Thanks BOOF-M3 for organizing the meet!

DSpencer18 · 11-19-2017, 10:29 PM

Really enjoyed the day boys! Thanks for everyone coming out. Especially, Michael, from FL that drove 13 hours and brought his mom along for the ride! You da real mvp!

thetastelingers · 11-20-2017, 06:17 AM

Had a great day. Thanks for BOOF for just wanting to go on a small drive. It turned into much more than you thought it would.

My only complaint is that it didn't last long enough. (insert that's what she said joke)
Next year we need to all stay at Fontana over a couple of days.

Had an awesome run through the gap on the way home. No traffic at all.

Here are a few of my pics.

So wait!!! You are from Chattanooga and we didn't drive up together?

King Rudi · 11-20-2017, 07:07 AM

Hate that I missed the ride yesterday. Looks like it was a good time. Some great pictures. Look forward to seeing the videos.

I am in Cleveland, but yeah! We should have!

spazzyfry123 · 11-20-2017, 07:48 AM

thetastelingers So you're boosted? I'm pretty sure you were behind me (dirty black E90). Every time I looked in my mirrors, you were catching up awfully quick. The competitive nature in me kept hitting the go pedal to try and shake you

All makes sense now. I'm not a bad driver, but you had me questioning myself every time I looked in the mirrors.

Looks like you all had a great time!! I wish I had been able to go!

I've been to the gap a lot. I was slowing a bit to play around between the front and rear group.
I was running pretty much third gear without having to shift which was nice.

I still need to look at the video's. I stopped at one point and let everyone behind me roll through, so we could have some ear candy. I'll post soon.
