You going? I've never been before but there's a lot of sweet bands that will be there!!

Chewy734 · 02-21-2011, 08:25 AM

I'm thinking about it... Seems like it would be a lot of fun. This year it doesn't conflict with Timmayfest.

It's good to see another local here!

Marcumac · 02-22-2011, 09:29 PM

OB.c will keep you posted on local meets

other than that, I'll try to post up the major ones on here, but there's a lot of smaller backyard/garage meets and whatnot that are spur of the moment type things that you won't hear about unless you're on OhioBimmers...just sayin

Ya I just saw that, im going to be snow plowing with my front bumper tomorrow.

Chewy734 · 02-24-2011, 10:11 PM

You guys are getting ice down there overnight. Tomorrow's gonna suck...

Chewy734 · 02-25-2011, 09:03 AM

First time Case closed in years!

Needless to say, I won't be going into work today to CCF... damn weather. Time to charge up my batteries for some outdoor photography.

mad_max · 02-25-2011, 01:27 PM

What traction mode do you guys use in heavy snow? DSC gets me nowhere, it just applies brakes. Do you switch it to DTC mode or completely off?

El Duderino · 02-25-2011, 04:26 PM

I leave it on...i can only go like 2 mph but at least it keeps me going forward and not in 1 spot haha

Chewy734 · 02-25-2011, 07:48 PM

I turn mine off when I have trouble going uphill into my garage during heavy snow or some ice. Works like a charm.

spkcadet · 02-27-2011, 02:32 AM

My most recent disaster with that pothole got me some new tires. Decided to go with all weathers instead of summer sport tires. Got to try them out the other day, needless to say I am really impressed. They handled that snow on monday like a champ.

Chewy734 · 02-27-2011, 11:13 AM

That's cool. I've heard good things about those tires.

spkcadet · 03-01-2011, 04:01 AM

Yeah I guess I was the first pair they saw at Kelly BMW. Sadly they were 2 days old and I wasnt able to give the guy an opinion lol

SpmnE9zero · 03-01-2011, 06:11 AM

Hey, not much going on here. Just one cold day after the next. The sun finally came out today... no wonder I'm Vitamin D deficient

I think later next month we might start having some smaller meets in the area. I'll keep you guys updated. How are things going with you?

Haha, nope, but I try to help organize some local meets. Once the weather improves I'll let you know about some smaller meets in the area. Hopefully you can join us. The next big meet is Timmayfest in mid-June in Columbus [link].
