Lightbulb EuroFest@BMW Plant in S.C. Oct 16th

Hey folks, Im back after another unfortunate cardiac episode. Feeling almost normal again.

Any rate, a couple of months back I was asking about interest in another 928 gathering for those 928'ers in N.C., S.C., Ga., and Tenn., regarding BMW's annual Eurofest at their Greer, S.C. manufacturing facility. The date is Saturday October 16th for the car show, and the following day they are holding an SCCA Solo2 Auto-X. For those that don't know about the event, it's a HUGE European only car festival/show that draws around 500 cars of all european makes. This year MG is the featured marque I believe. Entry into the judged competition is $25.00, but you can also just park in the spectator parking and enjoy the show for free.

I would like to get some us together for another gathering similar to the dyno day that I put together back in May. Have everyone show up early Saturday morning, and drive together over to Eurofest, then when things wind down at Eurofest, head to the Lockhart casa for food/drinks.

Please call me @ 864-270-3083 if you're interested, as my computer is on the fritz.

Thanks Joe. Unfortunately this one was out of my control. Diet, excersize, medication, etc.., were all doing their part to keep the arteries looking good, but I had what they called a "plaque eruption". This brought on a heart attack while I was working out at the gym. Scared the hell out of everyone involved, but more especially me. I'm feeling better now, and will be returning to work next Wednesday. Christine is taking pretty good care of me, so I'm in good hands. (She has smacked me around a few times to keep me in line.LOL!!!!!!!!!)
