March Large Multi-Club GTG - Sunday, March 29th

"...Yukon-Ho to the north!"

The third large all-euro Denver GTG of 2009 will be on Sunday, March 29th, 2009 @ 1:00pm.
February was amazing; over 115+ euros! Let do it again.

Northglenn Marketplace
[104th Ave. + I-25]


Directions:
- I-25 to 104th Ave.
- 104th Ave west to Melody Drive
- Melody Drive north to the northwest parking lot (see image)
- event should easily last till 3pm or longer!




PLEASE come with a positive attitude; many are meeting each other for the first time.
We don't anyone to crash the fun in the first part of the year... that's never good!

NOTE There will be no reservations set; this will be a "free-for-all" event.
Meet, greet, eat, walk, converse, trouble-shoot, shoot pics, pick-up performance hints, whatever...

NOTE: Also, there will be a few OBDII VAG-COMs and other scanners being brought if you need a scan. Just ask and we'd be glad to help fellow owners out.

Questions, concerns, comments? Feel free to IM me!
People usually arrive and meet and greet; enjoying the weather and good company.
Please post if your going; I'll do my best to keep track and update a list as it formulates.

[Public Service Annoucement]

PLEASE READ ALL DETAILS; Thanks!

* I want to be very crystal clear on this: Do not, and I repeat, DO NOT burnout, speed, or create careless driving acts in your vehicles while in area.
To avoid getting the boot please ABSOLUTELY NO burnouts, speeding, or careless acts in our vehicles; clear?

WARNING: If you do something STUPID in your vehicle on the premises of the area, I WILL have NO problem grabbing your license plate, VIN, your name, any and all personal physical and vehicle description and any other valid info and give it to the authorities so that you are properly processed for fines / tickets / etc.

Sunday is a Founder lapping day, but I will save my $150 for Lotus/MINI track day in June. Not a big Founder, just a little Green Flag Founder as well as the with our MINI5280 club donation.

Chuck, did you ever get them to change MINI5280 to the Founders list?

Welcome back Don. Hope you had a good trip.
MINI5280 is on the Founder's List and we were invited to the Founder's Day event. I sent that information out in a general email way down on your in-box by now.

We are questionable. Still want to make it down but won't be at Barnes and Noble this time. Hopefully see you down there.

Nice day for a GTG. Sunny and quite warm and with about 70 cars by my count, very entertaining.

We were a little late but had a good time too. Nice to see Don and Chuck there... so we could get reacquainted.

My contribution

It was a good time, nice to see all the folks and finding out Tommy does really live in Colorado and exists.

Here is my photo contribution.

You can see them all at Fotki.

A few here at Picasa (best 4), my opinion.

At this one of the group who showed 3 MINIs and whatever Tommy drove.

Nice Don. You can always tell events that you attend since those are the best documented. We went on the Snowball Rallye last month and nobody snapped a picture one.
Thanks for the pics!
I've got to work on Chris - she's just a dozen but already has the don't-give-a-crap attitude stance of a teen.

Thanks, she's a cool kid, buy her a MINI!

I enjoy taking pictures, only way Pat believes where I am during the day.
