Nice to meet a great group of 02 people at this event. I only took limited photos. Anyone else here take pictures?

We were there in our faded out E12. We didn't stay long as it is my girlfriend's birthday.

Well, carp, I could have brought Jenn's car, but I missed it...

Lots of nice cars!  That turbo-build looks very well executed... would love to know more about it!

Greg Mierz over on Facebook seemed to know quite a bit about it. I talked to the owner for a bit. Everything is custom and he is running STS for engine management.

The owner of the turbo is quite a character.  Known locally as Turbo Max, he has turbocharged every car he has owned, so I'm told.  I gave him a damaged S14 exhaust manifold years ago to use on a turbo M3 motor he was building to stick in an 02.  Don't know where that project went.

 

It was great to see Andy's Ti again and for a lot of people, including 02 owners, to see one in the flesh for the first time.  Another 2002 that drew a lot of attention was a colorado 1970 that was picked up new at the factory and is still being driven by the original owner 45 years later.  

 

This has turned into the best attended event of the year for the local chapter with a wide range of ages, both cars and people.  And Toby, don't feel alone.  I think many people missed this and I'm not sure why except that most members associate it with June so a May 31 date might have thrown them off.  There were three E9s there.  Mine, Adam's beautiful turkis from BC and a highly modified CSL.

I'll say this first, DONT FORGET THE PICNIC LATER THIS SUMMER. OK, caps off now...

 

I'll get my photos off the camera and get them up later. Was a great day with a good turn out of 02's!!

I really wanted to go but had too much going on. I'll have to make it next year. Looking forward to more pictures.

Here's the link to all the photos I took, and here is some of them.

Good to see you again, your e9 is beautiful.  This really is a great event, it shows off the diversity of the BMW crowd.

 

Anyone know what wheels are on the touring?  14x6 I believe.  They look great.

Those are NK wheels on the touring.  That is Riley's car; those NK wheels used to be on the blue car in that photo (also his car).

Like Stu said, the wheels are from an 1800Ti/SA originally, and I swapped them from my blue 02 to the touring recently. They are indeed 14x6!
