It will never be too late. Once they make them they will have it on file and of course we can order for anyone wanting one down the road.

BOOF-M3 · 11-02-2018, 01:27 PM

Just a reminder. If you want a shirt I need to know if it's definite. We have 41 confirmed shirts ordered. I have 16 others who have said they want one but I haven't gotten confirmation since the original request. Thanks to thasuperdude the shirts are badass.

Also don't forget that this is a charity run and we do have raffle tickets with 100% collected going to the L.O.V.E foundation. You do not have to be there. The M3post vendors whom have donated items will mail out directly to you guys, tune, underbelly pan, $250 gift card, bearings and a TA etc...

Holy cow thanks to EprezM3vert the banner looks awesome.

Also, If anyone is looking to purchase a 1 of 1 (we think) BlueWater Metallic well maintained E93 and have it delivered to the Tail for your very first ride then take a look at this one below.

If anyone knows these members can you get a hold of them. They haven't logged onto M3post in awhile. Not sure if they are still attending and they wanted shirts.

Shirts are in!

thetastelingers · 11-08-2018, 01:51 PM

The leaves are at peak around here. They'll probably be on the ground next week though.
Maybe some of them will stick around for some color.

Took this over the weekend at the house.

Zero snow, good to see as predicted.

thasuperdude · 11-08-2018, 03:48 PM

Snow just helps the car rotate easier.

GP0256 · 11-08-2018, 06:00 PM

Have a blast to anyone going! If you have not been there, be cautious and have fun. This is a helluva road to run but can be dangerous and I have see. Many accidents so please be cautious for yourself and the other drivers and passengers, especially with wet roads and possibly with leaves which can be slick! Have fun slaying the Dragon!

You will not be attending?

Final countdown- one week to go.
Boof- Shall we make some reservations at "the Hub" restaurant in Robbinsville?

Get lit is working on the Hub and one other place.

I think the plan will be to meet at the bottom of the Tail starting at 8am. Fontana is about a 20 minute drive. So if we meet at 8, plan on the raffle at 10am. Out of there by 10:30ish. We should be at the Hub around 12:30. After lunch we can go either on another run up and down or a different route like last year. My thought on the 8am to 10am is to give a chance to those heading up that morning. If the have a four or five hour drive they can arrive closer to 10am if that works better for them. Maybe a 2 hour meet and greet is too long. I'm open to suggestions.

You could do a 2 hr Q&A panel with everyone instead

Moderate? No way, I have way too many questions to ask

BOOF-M3 · 11-09-2018, 06:37 PM

Perfect weather. A lot of worrying for naught.

Tewie · 11-09-2018, 06:40 PM

Man this sounds fun! Stuck in CA.

Doesn't matter what you bring. Will you still be coming?

8500RPM · 11-11-2018, 12:00 PM

Was there about a week ago with my 2012 6MT. Weather was perfect no ice or snow yet. Wish I would have planned my TN trip round this event, maybe next year.
Having to warm the engine up for over 15min before driving in the morning was fun lol.

Road was great!
