Oktoberfest

Anyone planning to attend the BMW CCA Oktoberfest in Atlanta this year? (besides me)

Yep, In some capacity. Not sure what I will be actually participating in, if anything.

what an underwhelming response! I do have to admit, I did not notice many (any?) X5s in Ft Worth 2 yrs ago - guess most feel this is not an X5 event

Went today at the last minute for Bimmermeet and to watch my buddy qualify for a BMWCCA race. Not many X5's at all near the track. May have seen 2 total.

I know, I feel bad - I live 15 minutes from all of the activities that happened last week and was unable to find time to attend

Well, I did make it for Tues-Fri - ran my first autocross - was the fastest X5 for the same reason I was the slowest X5 - missed the course walkthru because my clocks were still set on Mountain time, so I was still doing alot of learning during my 5 runs - still, it was a blast! - I'm hooked - ordered my own helmet (borrowed one at the event) - plan on doing more

In the "Where's Waldo?" segment. anyone seen a blue X5 with the number "229"? Then you've seen me. Presently in western CT, but hopefully due to start traveling back down to SC soon - Which will mean my brother-in-law will be home and fully recovering from cancer surgery - Said surgery confirmed the chemo did get all the throat cancer, so with prayers and thanks, he should be home next week

Nice job on the autocross! Even if you were the only X out there.

I ended up going on Saturday for the BimmerMeet and to watch my friend qualify for the club race. Sort of a last minute thing. I missed everything at Lake Lanier.

last mention - page 76 of the Oktoberfest issue of Roundel has me & my X5 turning & burning on the Autocross - part of my Andy Warhol 15 minutes of fame - the burning came from a loose manifold bolt that missed tightening during a gasket replacement just before heading east & Oktoberfest

I saw that a while back. Looks like you are realling getting into that corner.

The article mentioned that your X was one of the more "rare" BMW's in the autocross.
