Hope everyone made it down without any issues. Lewis sent me a great video of the caravan just to make me jealous. Have fun this weekend! I’ll join next year, for sure. This year I’ll be at the Deutsche Marque Concours. Not sure which of my cars I’ll be bringing, but hopefully I’ll drive Nevada over there. Waiting on these new tires to arrive.

Argh!

I discovered I don't have working wipers, so I'm not going to be able to join the caravan. I think I'll meet you all in Asheville with my daily driver.

I will be joining and I think Lewis Zehmer (E30) and Johnathan Shiu (my old E30) will be joining us. See you tomorrow AM. Thanks for coordinating. -MC

Marshall, I'll be rolling in with 2 E34s. I also gave the details to Manny (E30), Kevin Grim (2002), and my friend Tom (E28).

Safe travels everyone.

reminder. still targeting 0800 departure from my place. bring walkie talkies if you have them. channel 2, code 2 will be used. reply if you are joining so we know how many in the group.

Looking forward to a loud Ansa muffler trip in the 69 (sans radio). Triple A subscription from MidAmerica drive hopefully won't be needed.

I'm coming this year, so I'll be there!

yep.

Marshall, I'll be joining once again. I assume we're going with the standard 8-8:30 departure from your house?

Hey Marshall i am planning to head down Thursday. Probably in the afternoon. I am pulling in red eye from CA around 9 am keep,me posted. 3013189389 K

Ya'll have a blast, but be safe. Deutsche Marque Concours was postponed from 05 May to the 19th, so I'm stuck here...

it is that time again. anyone interested in departure Thursday morning before the event? usual route 95/195/360/29/40 with stop for greek/italian just west of richmond.

Probably was I drive out that way in one of the 02s a couple times a month Mtn bike at HArris and hike at Jordan Lake area a lot

Some trip pics to share Think Chuck wanted to bring this car home. Think Chuck got the best parking spot in the M section. These pictures were taken just after 9am. The areas filled up very quickly! Got to love the creativity of this swap meet seller. Sign on this welder says "used once by Hans Stuck to repair a strut at NRing".

Thanks for the speedy response. I figured you guys would have tips. John '74 2002 Polaris

give Bruce Shelton at http://www.automotive-enterprises.com/ a call. he was a long time bmw 2002 racer in scca and has his shop in winchester. although i have not had any work done in his shop (i do my own), i have known and raced with him for many years. stand up guy.

Check out Don Miller at Blue Ridge Sports Cars in downtown Baltimore (where Paul Wegweiser worked at one time). My engine block was bored by a shop in Winchester (details in my project blog). Cylinder head was reworked by Korman in Greensboro, NC.

It's time - burning too much oil. Oil samples show too much wear. I used 2 quarts in the 1250 mile Vintage run, admittedly lots of long distance 4000 rpm revs on highway and much up and down hills, but I want a nice, clean engine to go with the otherwise very good '74. I think this is more than valve seals. So, any recommendations on a experienced M10 shop mid-Atlantic area, within couple hundred miles of DC-Baltimore would be good. Mostly stock rebuild. Thanks John '74 Polaris carb

Hey Mike, Perhaps I've seen your car before- I've seen the same color in your avatar prior when out riding my bike new Harris Lake (new hill)

Download the tour rote .gpx files to your gps from the vintage website! Loaded and ready to go in the morning.

Yep, it's this coming Sunday in Vienna VA. We have 4 2002s pre-registered, but you never know what will show up at the show! Let's pray that the rain stays away. Registration is still open, and there is no charge for spectators to check out the BMW, Porsche, and Mercedes-Benz examples.
