I am going to do the car show on Saturday 10/21 for sure. I participated in 2002 and 2003, but missed 2004 and 2005. I may spend the night on Friday.
The Sunday fun rally is also a very worth while event to consider. The great thing is the event is not on race week in Charlotte, its the week before and the Panthers are playing away on Sunday.

If you have never been check out the website it is a great event. it's held at the BMW Zentrum where M2C2 held its Christmas party.

Luke can you start a list of who is going and please add me?

Thanks
George

I'm planning on returning again this year. There's always a great selection of cars on display. George is right about the Sunday rally. It's a great way to while away a Sunday morning.

That's "canoe", not "kayak"! And just to clarify, I was at Eurofest last year, despite the canoe trip.

They are having a raffle for a 2002 BMW for the Red Cross. Does any one know if you have to be present to win. Can't find anything on the EUROFEST or RED CROSS sites? The drawing will be at the dinner Saturday night and I probably won't make it.

Put me down as a possible maybe with one car

Best I can do right now, still working at getting someone to pull my shift on Saturday night

Ed, my understanding was that early registration ended on the 7th; do you know if we can still register at the gate, like past years?

Since you're getting a good turnout, I think I might bail on this one, and head North for another event...you guys have fun!
