Saw that kinda sucks...

Prob going to NJ one

jor2cool4u · 03-10-2015, 06:26 PM

yeah I was contemplating that also...but if they did it at Gillette again we could have made a meet out of it...going to try and email/call them 2 NJ/NY locations and not one Boston?!

Hadley · 03-10-2015, 07:52 PM

I just got the email too and nothing close

zero2sixtyZ · 03-12-2015, 08:10 AM

Dammit.

SLOWER · 03-12-2015, 08:53 AM

I think they try to spread those around and hit different areas.

Do you have a recommendation for a DAC? I can do stand alone or integrated with an amplifier but they're expensive as shit

Until you break one you have not mastered it! It takes effort!

I'm registered for the one in NJ on April 12th. Anyone that went to one last year care to share what it was like? (order of events, etc.)

Just did but couldn't find anything, maybe the thread was deleted?

I want to know if it's worth going to and the cost (if any) to participate since there was no mention of fee's on the registration site.

SLOWER · 03-17-2015, 05:24 PM

It's free and it's an absolute blast. On from post 1245 in the chat thread.

zero2sixtyZ · 03-18-2015, 07:22 AM

Anyone going to NJ? I'd consider going the last saturday or sunday for a day trip.

zero2sixtyZ · 03-18-2015, 07:24 AM

Hmmm... wait, 328d/428i or X4? I would've done it if it was the 2 series again. Really no desire to drive the new 3 or 4. I'd rather pay for an dealer alignment and get a loaner.

I'm going on Sunday April 12th. Although the cars available aren't the most exciting, I'm hoping there will be other activities there to make it worth the trip.

When i went the course was with the 2 series but you could sign up for a test drive for a bunch of other cars like Z4, 650, etc etc so you may still be able to drive other cars, just not on the course. At least the test drive you can basically take the car anywhere you want for 30 mins

Wow, sounds like a good deal. On the registration page it asked me which car I have particular interest in so I put the M3, so maybe they'll have those available for test drive.
