National Capital Chapter BMWCCA Chapterfest tomorrow

[BillWilliams]

Registration is closed for Chapterfest but you can still show up tomorrow at Bowie, MD, for the event.

The weather seems to be perfect for a day with over 244 other BMW fans. It is a day of autocross, show-n-shine and just hanging out.

Red, Hot and Blue will be there with food.

Hope to see some of you there. If there seems to be significant interest tomorrow, we may plan a fall outing of some kind for the vintage/classic crowd.

Sounds like a good time. Wish I could attend.

Bill, I have received requests offline from both John McW and Max Q-Tip (Jonathan) to attend, but I simply have too much to do, and not enough time in which to do it. Please count my absentee ballot, however, as a strong positive vote for your suggestion to do something vintage. That's an excellent idea.

Y'all have fun tomorrow - wish I could be there, but with all the things on my plate, it would be totally irresponsible of me to blow them off. Take lots of pictures, please.

is there going to be a good '02 turnout?

[BillWilliams]

Looks like 6-7 will be there.

I'll be there but without my tii - the engine is still apart. I've got some interesting news after visiting J&F's machine shop.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in the AM. Hope they let me in the gate with my DD Honda.

I'm planning on checking it out. I've never been to a Chapterfest. Anybody got any tips?.
