SoWo 2014 - BMW meetup

[M540fella]

Let me tell you a little secret. Burnouts are illegal. If you can't handle the consequences then don't do them and don't bitch on the internet.

Thanks Josh for putting my exact thoughts in words. I drove for 3hrs in the rain for a show that was broken up literally 10mins before I got in town. Thanks parks!
Also what's with the roundel reunion? I know there was talk of it last year but was it just a pipe dream?

Pipe dream. City of Helen said no, apparently. Plus I'm sure the SoWo Partners guys didn't really want to put on a show for a scene that really isn't one they're into.

Thanks to everyone that came out. Special no thanks to the idiots that did their burnouts pointed in the direction of the meet.

I loved the guys doing burnouts into the crowd of bystanders. Don't act like it wasn't your favorite part Cj.

I was ready to throw a full beer bottle at them. Until I realized I was holding a Stella, and that would've been a crime.

Well shit. Thanks for organizing the meet bud. Maybe next year I'll come down a bit earlier.
Also does anyone know someone with a black turbo 1 series with (not sure the state) lp SPOOLED? I had fun chasing you down the occee doin 80 in the dark lol. Helped keep me awake.

Thanks bro! I'm sure someone took pics of it, just wait. Lots of people are still editing photos I'm sure. Next couple of weeks on here and VWVortex should start a flood of coverage.

Post a shot of it, I'll dig through mine again. I only kept the ones I was really really happy with so I may have just not made it an uploaded image. I can change that though.

The only pic I found online. Hah.

Ya man can't wait to see more pics sux that it got shut down early because of certain ppl.

My car was stuck in the booth all day so I was unable to make it. What is mostly disappointing is that majority if not every car I saw doing burnouts at SoWo were BMW drivers. It's bad enough the organizers go to the extreme cutting us out of the show, but they loosen their restrictions a bit and we still act like ass-hats.

I don't know who it was, but I saw him parked near the tents on Edelweiss Strasse across the street from the show. That front bumper did not fit well from what I remember

Thanks. He had a bike rake on the back too. It was quite funny see him do 140 with it lol.

I dont really enjoy vw fwd burnouts. I doubt many people do. But besides that the burnout issue arises at every meet with open invitation and a younger crowd. It is a force that cannot be stopped unless you invite individuals you know will not. Or take action in shunning the ones that do. This is a large part of the reason i would have liked to make the show at brasstown bald. It is in a more remote location and a drift event could have been held prior to cops ever showing up(not that i would want that to happen) so if you cant stop it find a place it can happen.
