I read about this event in my BMW CCA chapter mailer last week, and i would love to join you all if possible.

*I realize that this group-forum is E9x focused, but would my olde e46 M3 be welcome to participate as well?

Hey, good to see you on here! I'm the one you emailed yesterday for more info. I'm so glad you'll be making it up! Another member emailed me too, he'll be coming up with his E63 M6 and his son is bringing a C7. We're mixing it up a bit

2nd Annual Tail of Dragon Charity list https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1519982

A reminder that this is a charity run. Five sponsors have donated items to the run. We are selling raffle tickets for $50 for a chance to win one of the below donated items. 💯 of the raffle ticket money is going to the L.O.V.E foundation. See above link for raffle or donation info. Below are the sponsors and donated items.

Our official sponsors are:
FCP Euro
$250 gift certificate.

Abdul@mpowermotorsports
One throttle actuator and a set of rod bearings.

deansbimmer MporiumBmw
One underbody panel.

Alex@AlpineMSS
One ECU tune.

Special thanks to Jobe. who is donating a PSDesigns alcantara armrest delete which looks awesome by the way.

I would also like to thank:

EprezM3vert
He is donating his time, money and resources to print up the stickers and the banner.

m3jala
Jens set up a Face Book page for the run.

thasuperdude
Randy has done some incredible work by taking the original logo and making it that much better. His mock up of the shirts and banner have been first class by adding sponsor names the L.O.V.E charity and making the logo pop off of the shirts!

sv848evo has been a huge help with taking Thasuperdude's design and getting the shirts made up.

DreamTime & ThreePedalSteve will be writing about this event.

And another special thanks to my think tank:
GetLit
thetastelingers
spazzyfry123
Without these three guys there is no fundraiser.

BOOF-M3 · 10-17-2018, 10:22 PM

We are about to order the shirts as the final design with the L.O.V.E foundation has finally been added. Shirts will be approximately $22 per shirt. We will be ordering them in bulk with the sizes that have been requested. This will be cheaper and more efficient than each members ordering the shirts on their own. We will be putting in an order for around 50 shirts shortly. Therefore I will need to collect money from everyone when that time comes. Will know in a day or two what the final price per shirt which includes the bulk shipping etc...

BOOF-M3 · 10-17-2018, 10:23 PM

Thank you Eric and Randy with the great work on the banner. Can't wait to see it at the Tail.

I'll be driving up Friday. If you are as well, maybe we can caravan. I'll have my buddy with his GTR with me as well.

Three Pedal Steve · 10-27-2018, 07:21 PM

ODE TO BOOF-M3
A random gathering of strangers,
Found a magic connection
Created unique energy in comradery
Broke bread together, and after only hours
The fellowship began to breakup
Each homing in different directions
Like dust to the wind, now a memory

The 2017 version of this event can never be duplicated. 2018 will be a different experience for many reasons and has potential to exceed my high expectations. There will be many more of us, so patience will be the order of the day. My expectations are about old friendships being renewed and the new ones that await. We already know that our cars are fast as hell, we have nothing to prove. This year we find our joy in the caravanning extravaganza.

PS: Remember to bring your walkie talkie radios. I will have four to share with others who do not have one.

94jedi · 10-28-2018, 04:04 PM

Man, I'd love to go and was considering it but my Dad's bday is the 19th so we're heading back up to DC this same weekend. It's his 70th so...kind of a big one. BOOF-M3 you'll have to take a raincheck on that round of beers I owe ya!
