Some of us try.

Decided against that FF for the time being, doesn't have the right gear box and that just adds to the expense (though I was ready to buy a new motor). So still looking. Racey, thanks for link. It sold.

In other news I'm a first time dad as of Dec 7... Holding him now as I type this. Can't wait to take him karting if he's into it. Pic is of Ashton at 1 day old.

Alex, Congratulations! Best wishes to you and yours.

16M4 · 12-22-2013, 08:26 AM

Congrats, Alex! Your kid is looking very cute

forza1976 · 12-23-2013, 09:58 AM

Big congrats Alex!

tschultz · 12-23-2013, 10:35 AM

Congrats Alex and Anne! I will have to show Alexandra that picture

raceyBMW · 12-23-2013, 05:28 PM

Congratulations Alex, the next Vettel?

IN54NITY · 12-23-2013, 05:38 PM

Thanks all for the compliments and well wishes. Tell you what, being a dad is tough the first two weeks (tougher for mom), but ~nothing~ beats getting your "first feedback" from your own son. Didn't realize it until after birth / now, but being a dad is a privilege.

Next Vettel? Doubt it, but I will teach/show him everything I know so hopefully by the time he's 7 if he can understand every thing I know or simply implement it (doing without knowing). By the time he's 12 he'll be telling me how to do things. By the time he's 16 he will be on a way higher level beyond my knowledge. That's the plan at least.

Reminds me of that line in the Matrix: the difference between knowing the path and walking the path. lol

AlpineSwift · 12-24-2013, 12:00 AM

Cute kid, congrats sir.

Trying to keep a low profile until I get into my next set of wheels next year. Would certainly enjoy getting back out for a few drives with the rest of you guys. Seems like its been forever since I last saw most of you.

raceyBMW · 12-24-2013, 10:22 AM

I got in on the M3 front control arm group buy a week ago, can't wait to get those installed and head out to HPR again.

AlpineSwift · 12-26-2013, 02:44 AM

Merry Xmas to you guys. Hope Santa was good to you all.

I passed another milestone with the little 328 this month. Officially 4 years of proud ownership and currently at 78K miles. Longest I've ever kept a car.

To celebrate, I decided to get a little treat for the old girl before I swap vehicles in the spring. I pulled the trigger on Vishnu's new OFT for the 328. The real beauty is I can get it reprogrammed for free through Vishnu to work on the N54 when the time comes. Well worth the $400 investment.

F3_BMW · 12-26-2013, 02:44 PM

Finally a warm day to wash the car.

Barrique_Red · 01-15-2014, 10:19 PM

Been a BMW owner for almost four years now. Glad to see this Colorado forum, a couple of the drives sound fun! I don't track my car or anything like that, but I do work on my own vehicles. I come here for the DIY posts.

Congrats to the new dads! I am sure you will love it!

Hope to meet some day soon.

AlpineSwift · 01-15-2014, 11:53 PM

Welcome to the local section lol. Look forward to seeing you out there.

how cheap, and where?

AlpineSwift · 01-18-2014, 12:06 AM

Is it reputable? Cheap and reputable aren't always good friends in the word community.

tschultz · 01-28-2014, 08:32 AM

FYI, Drive 4 Corners has announced the dates for our meet:

August 1-4, 2014.

http://drive4corners.com/index.php/e...ate-finalized/

Go to the above link to help us decide where to concentrate efforts for official caravans. Will create news threads soon to get people planning to go.

IN54NITY · 02-06-2014, 09:04 PM

Wow it's cold...... If anyone is still thinking about the spring BMWCCA HPDE HPR, there's still room:

http://www.rmcbmwcca.org/content.php...Plains-Raceway
http://rmcbmwcca.motorsportreg.com

IMO it's cheap (especially compared to other chapters) when you consider just a 1/2 day of track time is $100.

AlpineSwift · 03-01-2014, 11:21 AM

To the Silver E90 335Xi on I-25 last night:
That was a lot of fun
