BIMMERFEST 17 ( pics and vids)
Ive never been to Bimmerfest and I decided to head out from Austin and join the festival in LA.
It was interesting to learn about bmw culture and how there is a big "show" crowd. But out of everything I really learned to appreciate the older BMWs. I think i may have to get one with manual windows and 5 speed trans. Loved those... It was a busy event. There were many events from gokarting, to tracking, to looking at show cars and talking with other enthusiasts. The chance to speak with a lot of vendors was a great time to ask a lot of dumb questions and learn. I was curious to see what my car was making so on Sunday I put my car on the dyno. Best of two runs in 88deg F with 91 octane ended up with 332whp and 357wtq. I just have a VRspeed I/c and charge pipe, and Jb+. I on saturday I joined Speed ventures for a day at the track. I did not have a transponder for the track. I was just having some fun as it was my first time on this course. PS i thought i clipped the video but i guess I didn't so i start driving off around 1:35. Anyway enjoy |

Very nice! Too bad the weather should have been 10 degrees cooler that weekend.
Beautiful pictures. And awesome run on the track! Those are some impressive dyno numbers. |

And Itzzoscar - I made the files in photoshop and had a vinyl shop die cut print the lettering. It cost around 20$. The dimensions for the vinyls were 24x4 or just pm me if you want the file. |

I went for the third year running with my teenage son. It's always fun. The cars are beautiful and the booth babes entertaining.
