I'm posting this thread because I told Dave I'd bother him and try to remind him to go to the Columbia Social.

Pub Dog, Thursday July 9th, let's bring out the TI's!!!

Sorry for calling you out Dave. :rolleyes:

At least one other ti will be there. :wink:

Come on out! For CCA members, $5 buys you all the mediocre beer and pizza you can stand.

Eating starts at 7, but everyone shows up outside in the parking lot at 6 to hang out and talk cars. Go to the BMW CCA NCC website for details.

...You would think. But I can tell you exactly how many times a ti has actually been present at this event for the last year.

Only one, only once. :frown: It seems strange, as we always get a pile of people and a lot full of bimmers.

But I lost track of how many people then said that evening "Wow, cool! You know, I've been looking for one of these!"

This is gonna change!! It looks like we're going to have 3 this coming month, maybe more, just have to keep promoting it.

From what I understand people loose track of time and then totally miss the events...

I can definitely show up at 6, that won't be a problem. I might only stay an hour or so though, I have a project due Friday that I'll need to work on Thursday night.

No worries, that's the real fun (at least when the weather's good).

NCC still speaks well of you. Lost track of how many times I've heard people say "he had the coolest little car!". :rolleyes:

It's an 8 hour drive.
Only thing I miss about the area is Guapos and my mechanic, Dan Martin.

Social is tonight, are you guys getting there around 6? It would be nice to park all the tis together, yeah?

We're going to try and get there at 6pm.

I need to rescan my TI ECU for codes---that might be lingering although the light went off.

I'll have my scantool if you want to use it again, hopefully this time it will only take 1 try, lol.

If it doesn't I'll just scream! I don't think it'll be a problem tho---like it did work eventually...

I hope we attract MORE people to this event tonite!!! Our numbers are up!

Yeah, I've certainly walked to Pubdog before.

There were a number of other confused bimmers spread out in other parking areas. :rolleyes: It was a decent turnout, we just didn't have all the cars in one place.

Times

07-10-2009, 03:23 AM

Wait, you were there?

We were in the correct lot, lol, that was the lot that Paul told everyone to go to. Crap, I was wondering why there didn't seem to be as many cars there as I thought there would be.

Yeah, it was nice meeting everyone though.

Yep yep...was there---and the codes are now cleared...so I wait and see if anything else happens...it looks like we're coming out on Sunday, if plans don't change.

Towson. You opt'd for Towson on Sunday. Didn't you? Or has that been rescheduled?

Everyone said the 12th was terrible and that the 19th would be better, I think? I'm pretty sure we decided to change it to the 19th. Check that thread.

Times

07-10-2009, 01:10 PM

Yeah the 19th won't work for MPWR & ///M44ti, otherwise I think that some of that thread was truncated with the server failure....because it's a lot shorter than it was.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Hmm, well what do you want to do?

Would it be possible for you to run codes tonight----again...yeah...I know, just trying to make sure.

Also working on recruiting the new guy at work to join. He drives a 'truck'.
