E9X M3 day at CEC Miami Showroom (2/28/09)

[FrankieP]

OK guys this is going to be cool. We have way more cars than I expected

Now we have to sort out some details.

We have all these M together...lets cruise. Where? (everyone post their preference, majority wins)

I would like to get an aerial shot/video (taken from the showroom roof) of all the M's going southbound on US1(all three lanes). We can set this up while gathering to leave for the cruise. Details day of event.

OK, let hear it. Where we going?

Keys:

Big Chill = 6

Alabama Jack's = 1

Cool, the more cameras/videos the better!

Keys...Alabama Jacks....more of a keys feel IMO

[m34jlp]

My first thought was Alabama Jacks but the parking might be an issue...We could always drive by and see how it looks if not continue South...

The last time a group of cars went down cardsound road people nearly died because everyone was trying to play hopscotch around slower cars. If I was to count the number of near miss head on collisions, I would need more than my two hands.

If you go that route... remember, it's about the drive, not the speed. The first person to get there has to wait the longest for the last person to arrive.

+1 on how dangerous Card Sound can be if people are driving stupid.

With the exception of the AA S/C E90, it's safe to say that everyone is pretty much on even footing power-wise (unless there's another S/C car coming that no one knows about). Showing off is pointless and anyone who tries to do it is just going to look silly.

Everyone should agree to drive the speed limit and be safe.

Lets all be responsible. If the Keys is the destination. Cardsound is the proper route. US1 is under construction and the speed limit is 45 mph for over a 20 mile stretch

Let's continue to post venue suggestions or vote for posted venues.

[Kevlar]

Be responsible and be safe... speed is one thing, passing responsibly is another.

Only one car passes at a time... don't pull out into opposite lane of traffic until the car in front has completed the pass because remember while you are behind the car in front of you, you can't see what is in front of them.

So if they barely make the pass and jump back into the proper lane, you are going to be stuck staring at a truck traveling the opposite direction probably at full speed until he realizes that both you and him are about to have an intimate encounter and well, then it's just an expensive game of chicken.

Quite a few exotic cars almost went home in very little boxes that day...

So I guess we decided going to Big Chill, right? I really hope to see the 33 signed up M3's there. Looks like the weather will be perfect too.
