Pls understand. Majority of the people here can't make it on April since there's a lot of activities going on. So i went ahead and pick a date of either March 27th or May 1st. I mean we just can satisfy everybody. So pls choose either those dates. If we move those dates don't think we'll ever have a meet.

I am out for the 27 weekend..Its my B Day.
Just got this from Brabus at BNZsport

We finalized the date and location for BNZSport Autofest 2. It's to be held on May 22, 2004 at the beautiful Santa Barbara Community College grass field. It overlooks the vast Pacific Ocean and has been the spot for many high end car shows including Porsche clubs and Ferrari meets

WOW this whole post blew up! How about this, We can have two GTG'S......? We will do the Rose Bowl idea. On a different date I will host the O.C. to Carlsbad meet? This way everyone that couldnt make one meet has a chance to make the other.

In the end we all meet, We all talk about who's rims got more dish, We race the cars, We all have a good time and somewhere in there we eat!

I think u sign up for food I think, since they are going to have free food. Last year I didn't signed up and just went. I could've get the food too, but just didn't want to wait in line after hundreds of people. I had to find parking spot all the way down the street and I thought I was there pretty early too. They only allowed Bimmers to get into the lot and it was jam packed, so lots of people still has to park on the street.

Do people think that splitin this meet into 2 dates is a good idea? The meet would be then split into one at the rose bowl where we can chit chat, take pics, take rides from other people's cars or what not. Then we can go fer a lil drive to eat and call it a meet. Then another day we can all meet down in Carlsbad to meet and then go to the track for those interested or jus meet to chit chat and so forth. If anything I want to keep the May 1st for the Rose bowl meet...any thoughts?

I'm pretty much down with with either meet as long as it happens . It seems like everybody has an agenda on certain dates and we just can please everybody so someone needs to set a firm date.
