Can't wait. Already on my calendar!

I know Alan, I'm pumped for this years meet. It's like the gateway to my summer automotive needs hahahaha.

Can't wait. Do we get the test track? :cool:

That would be amazing.

good job getting this all together guys....should be the best year by far

Will have use of the area around the test track, but we should really restrict the test track to use as a walking path around the event. If we allow cars on the test track we run the risk of someone getting the wrong idea. I just got off the phone with Tricia from Reedman-Toll (who has done her research and is watching these threads) and we should have the availability to use the given space however we deem necessary, as long as we can maintain a good amount of order throughout the day.

yeah I think as long as we stay on top of everything we should be fine.....we have enough people that are connected with us to police the event...lets just get Jay a blowneuros security shirt and let him do his thing

can you rent those removeable rubber speed bumps....it might annoy people but it will keep things under control no matter what

If I understood correctly, Reedman-Toll will be providing some security, and we will be providing some of our own to help "police" the event. We will also need to speak with the township to see what needs to be done about traffic. We will only be able to use the southbound 213 entrance, so we need to find a way to discourage people pulling a U-turn at Woodbourne Rd.

Reedman-Toll is a fairly large target for the township in the sense that they can see pretty much anything that happens there, so we need to make sure everything is done with the best interest of Reedman-Toll and BlownEuros in mind.

If I remember correctly, PT has some connections with local law enforcement. A good donation to them should be able to secure a some police presence to ensure (a) people keep it under control and (b) help with the traffic situation.

yup, the big concern is the traffic and how to funnel everyone in. I am going to direct them around the dealership on the site, but that won't stop people who google the directions or use a GPS. We should probably also look into some signage which might help the day of.

yeah looking into making signs.

the police will be notified.

I think with the right presence of police, secuirty etc and surrounding the track with cars people will stay on the safe side. We could even have vendors setup on the track to remove all doubt.

Forums where the gtg is posted:

VWvortex
Bimmerforums
S14.net
M5board
AKA rally
Tristatetuners

Vortex forum in the events section should be up by the end of the week.

Once we have a flyer I'm going to post it on most of the forums I frequent.

word.

just got the dubkorps forum

excellent, can't wait...kate's cabby is getting painted on thursday so she's ready to roll...as for me---i used the last two BE GTGs as my Deadline, so here goes, "my squareback will done and ready to go by April 5th"

so if it's still black with a white roof, that means it's NOT Done and i missed my goal again :D:D

once the flyer is ready to go, i'll post it up on the aircooled sites too! (Ost Kuste, Cultwagen, MEAT, thesamba, DasFolks, SJVWC, and a few others)

I'm officially kicking off the Old City Oil Drippers in Feb, so i'll make it an actual cruise to the BE GTG!!!

do you think Reedman would let us borrow a car carrier to get a cool photo like this....saw this hanging in Target the other night...look at that 1st car on there!!!!

BES site is pretty much done for right now. I will add elements as I get them done like the donation page and the ticket purchase. Feel free to look it over and let me know if you see any changes that need to be made in function or grammer, spelling, etc. I will open up the site once people look it over.

Posted on R3vlimited and E30Tech as well.

first thing tomorrow morning i'm updating the main site with the event info and link to BES.com. In the past two days we have seen a 1050% increase in traffic to BlownEuros.com

PT where is last years picture of the whole lot full? i can hit the audi boards and the bmw boards I am registered on.

Once we have a flyer I've talked to some admins on a few other forums about getting sticky threads in their events sections or forum wide and I'll be hitting those.

thanks brian, i don't think they will let us use one of their trucks for a shot like that, but there are many places where you could get a nice photoshoot going in the property.

blake i will get some pics up from the last years meets tonight. also can you talk to that radio station?


and,...

This year is going to be sick!

why yes ... yes it will be.

Hey guys, I don't talk too much on here, but I've been to the last two meets and I'm pumped for this year's. Can't wait. I put the info on the Saab forum I'm on but I'm not sure how much feedback I'm going to get.

Brandon

Brandon, thanks, very cool! We hope to see you there :)

No problem, I'll definitely be there.

nice, remember that everyone is welcome so pass it on.

so pass it on.

Like herpes errr :confused:

1st b.e. gtg.... looking forward to it

Welcome, and look forward to seeing you there

1st b.e. gtg.... looking forward to it

better be bringing the corrado :p

now that i'm blown, i guess i'm now qualified pt :D

ps- love the mustach

haha.

Don't worry guys, I posted it on TST.
hahhh. I am looking forward to this year for sure. As always PT, let me know if I can come over and assist in any way as things get closer.

i know, i am sure we will need you help. just don't break any lenses.

BWUAHAHAHA. Man, I can't wait for this, I can't stress it enough through arbitrary internet posts.

well this had slowed down

it will pick up again soon, then after the gtg. do you have a short vid yet son?

it always hits a slow period leading up to the GTG. Then picks back up again for the next year.

i know everyone is slowly tossing up shows to forums/sites etc...i know i have for Dripfest this year...

It's like the twilight zone or something....but is Etown on April 5th as well?
http://www.gti16v.com/eng1sho.htm#eng1sho

Nevermind...i just read the info on the BE Supports site about it being the same day...

i just found out Maple Grove is planning on putting on June Bug june 14th...a week after our beloved Dripfest....go figure!

keep us looped...

Yes, Show N Go is on the same day, we are not changing our meet (as we've had this in planning for months). It is addressed on the blowneurossupports.com site.

well, i just googled it and it's an 1hr from my place to Reedman/BE, and another 1hr to Etown...so i'm going to both events!

i don't think it will be too hard to organize a 'BEgone-to-BlownEuros Cruise' from Etown :D:cool: around lunchtime...i'll round up the troops, you guys have the burgers and dogs all ready to go...great opp for a cruise video...

:cool:

i know, you guys have been planning for awhile now...i'll be doing both (selling parts at Etown) and kicking back with BE like i have for the last 2yrs! :cool:

the OCOD will be present for the BE GTG!

http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j285/VWBeachBum/OCOD_hey_ho.jpg

Definitely man, good stuff. We encourage as many people as possible to support the community! The grill will be fired up all day :)

yeah well if people are deciding to go to show and go, they can get their early...do the once around the show then head to our gtg. we start at around 9:30 and will run till around 3:30/4. setting up a cruise from sng to our event would be cool.

you need a sign on a pole, like tour group leader through a museum.

setting up a cruise from sng to our event would be cool.

yes :D

We're here for the ...........

w00t! w00t!

Threads updated in E30 land.

Can't wait, though it seems my car is perfectly content doing just that. I gotta get busy!

Thanks Dave! I wish I was bringing my e30, just the M5 coming for me :(

what happened to bonehead....i thought they were a sponsor

they are. Just got the logo a little it ago.

yeah they sent me the logo and i just fowarded it to josh.

Thanks Dave! I wish I was bringing my e30, just the M5 coming for me :(

Aww, you poor thing.

:D

chris any chance of topgear.us coverage ;)

I expect a full report on the site Chris. I think I need to reach out to PVW again just to make sure they are still on board.

yeah. i think just a reminder to keep it in their head about the event.

I'll try and make it

PT,

If you need any help getting police presence, let me know. I have a few connections in Middletown Twp.

i def will.

security will be there, but i would like the local police to know so they arn't all suprised and suspicious about having all these cars just come in and out of the area in groups.

I'll be there

I just created a BlownEuros GTG thread on the samba and mentioned a caravan from Etown to the BE GTG....
(the wife's cabby will be the pace car!)

it's posted up on OstKuste too!

great brian!

i dont know anyone with a euro thats goin.. so i dont think ill make this.

You should probably tell them to go then, shouldn't you.

remember it is open to anything including subarus. reedman-toll would like a lot of subarus to come since they are a dealer... there are also threads all over subaru forums.

You know me!

Hmm. Might have to rethink my whole open headers being a good idea.

I cant wait to crash the party with my non - euro =D

I was originally scheduled for the following Sunday since I work every other, but I got royally screwed for April. Less hours during the week and more hours on the weekend. My work is only 2 miles away too. My buddy Erik from work will be there with his yellow bumble bee Jetta.

A bunch of us from my area will be driving up.

http://blowneuros.com/ptgallery/BlownEurosLogos/Performancevwgtg2009.jpg

Awesome.

I'm gonna get in touch with the guys at Speedhunters and see if they'd like to post some coverage. They have been growing fairly steadily and want more "Euro" content.

See all you homies on Sunday! I'm making the trek down tomorrow morning with the nyspeed group.

I'll see ya'll on Sunday :)

I just got a $5 car wash from a group of Ewing high school lacrosse players... boys. Some were wearing bikinis. I did this in the name of Revmat.ch even though it's not much different from every other weekend... oh well.

I have no idea how to take that ... thanks?

^nice.

Good thing I applied sunscreen everywhere except my vneck. Sweet, tender, lobstery chest burn.

We are all roasted. My neck, face and hands are bright red from expediting a shitload of hot dogs and hamburgers. I feel really badly for Robbie and Dave, since they had the hot sun and teh hot grill all day!

That was a great time and it was good to put faces with names.

EPIC!!!!

I was pretty happy that I actually was able to see every single car that was there :) I had a great time!!

it is isn't it...;)
to bad im not out of my saab phase yet:picard:

defect! come to the porsche side.

My hands neck and ears are burnt as hell. lol We volunteered to cook b/c it was windy and cold in the morning figuring the grill would make nice heat. Didn't know we'd be serving 1000+ hamburgers and hotdogs....damn. lol

Good times. Great to meet of bunch of guys and hang with those I already know. Thanks for the hospitality C+A.

Yeah, seriously! We started at like 10:30am and the next thing we knew it's 2:30pm. Couldn't have done it without you and Dave, thanks so much for the help. Good seeing you guys as always. And Tuna is the man!

Robbie, we can't thank you and Dave, and Phil, and Mingle, and Katie, and Alicia, and Chris, and Josh, and Jeff, and the sponsors and everyone else enough.

We had a blast and were very impressed with the turnout. Watch out for the Rice contingent to show up to the next one. Maybe bring the dyno with us too? hehehe

Everyone helped everyone and the people were quite patient which was nice. Awesome meet guys. Now send us N.VA rice lovers some blown euros stickers.

Word man, a dyno and some rice would be a great addition :)

Hilariously I don't even have a BlownEuros sticker.

Sean said he could zoom in like crazy on the original file (200MP camera) so I vote for him!

OK, I've been waiting for an explanation on where this aerial photo came from. And either I missed it, or no ones explained. Soooo...?

One of the dudes who shoots for google maps shot it for us. :)

That's how we roll!

Thats sick!
I gotta get involved in some of this action next year!

Here is the link to Google Maps so we can monitor for when it gets updated!
