JackMac · 04-03-2008, 01:38 PM

Per the website:

$15 per member or guest pre-registered
$30 at the door (if space is still available)

You may want to contact Mike Allen < jbmike@aol.com > to see "if space is still available"

The entry fee includes lunch.

I emailed him after registration closed and got my buddy (I'm a CCA member, he's not) included. He had him sign up for a motorsportreg account (it's free) and added him to the list. We just had to go to the website afterwards and pay the $15. If you email him, I would suggest mentioning that you're an e90post member and were trying to meet up with a bunch of fellow members. Might give you a little more pull. PM me if you need a CCA number, I have two guest spots open.

It's tomorrow! But it sucks the weather forecast is crappy for tomorrow.

STE92VE · 04-04-2008, 11:31 AM

I guess after the tour we'll have to find a pub and drink all afternoon.....

You've ready my mind

English weather + friends calls for a trip to the pub!

Are any of these micro brew pubs in the area? http://www.beer100.com/brewpubs_l_to_n/newjersey.htm

HyperM3 · 04-04-2008, 12:54 PM

Does anyone know how long this is supposed to last? Also, are cameras allowed?

Cameras are verboten.

I'm guessing the tour lasts 90 minutes or so?

From what I understand, they will take groups of approx 25 on each tour. There are 200+ registered. The day begins at 9:00. If they kick off a group every 30 minutes, then it should all be over around mid-afternoon.

If we don't behave, they'll kick us OUT after 30 minutes and it will be all over for us around 9:30am...

HyperM3 · 04-04-2008, 01:30 PM

If I get lost Im calling Steve. Did we figure out if we are driving together or just meeting up in the parking lot between 830-9?

This is the address:
BMWNA
20 Colony Road
Jersey City
NJ 07305

...plug it into your GPS and you should be fine, or else call me (you have my #) and I'll talk you in.

Some of us from Long Island are driving together...you guys from Jersey, after making your left turns from the right lane, might never make it.....
