Grant 4 Report post Posted July 18, 2004 Hitting the west coast (after starting on the east coast), me in hot pursuit of Andy, who was chasing the 3.0sci. Luckily we could stop up here and let our brakes cool down. Nice twisty parts to get to here, with the occassional tyre squeal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant 4 Report post Posted July 18, 2004 A sight to behold, a street full of Bimmers. There was a great range from our small E30's to Milan's big 7 series. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Andrew Report post Posted July 18, 2004 is it me, or grant is your number plate bent??? but nice pic's!!! looking good guys!!!! does jerry still hold anything against BS??? I've spoken with Gerry about bs.. he has nothing against it - they just can't formally support this format - due to its uncontrolled nature. The 2 clubs get along I think (I am the new webmaster for bmwclub.org.nz when it goes up next week) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant 4 Report post Posted July 18, 2004 is it me, or grant is your number plate bent??? but nice pic's!!! looking good guys!!!! does jerry still hold anything against BS??? Yeah, it looks bent in that photo, but I just checked and it is pretty straight in real life. Must be an optical illusion.And, things are all good, no bad feeling towards BS by the BMWCC. As Andy said, forums such as this doesn't fit well with the BMWCC, and fair enough, there is some rubbish on here, that can't be supported in any official capacity, especially when the BMWCC relies on BMW NZ for support. Andy and I have foot in both camps anyway. Andy is the webmaster for the BMWCC now, and I am on the national committee, and wil be looking after the club library.
