C'mon, his is a garage queen. He couldn't win all those awards if his car got driven!
Close, it is his neighbors car, that he is hired to prep, for auto shows :wink: . He just gets to stand next to it at the awards presentation since he did the actual work
Hey all,
Cool Z4 and wife checking in. We just arrived home yesterday, wed 9/5. Took our time home and made it in just over 3 1/2 days. Could have made it in 3 days, but why push it? Needed to stop by and see my sis in New Mexico.
Been reading your threads this morning and had enjoyed each one of them. I even saw me in a couple of the pics. Boy, don't I look cute wearing Ginger.. 8)
I was surprised about the gas mileage I got this year. I was getting well over 30mpg and cruising around 75 more or less all the way. Best I have done before was 27mpg just last year. So, I have a theory, the more mileage you piut on your car, the better the gas mileage? Or maybe my Oxygen sensors in my catalitic converter are bad and have failed open giving me a leaner mixture.. :roll: Yea, I knew they were bad before I left and on our last day comng home, the car acted up and had a rough idle going on. Other than that the car ran flawlessly. So, as the ones know that where at HC, I got the award for having the most miles on my Z4 of the cars at HC. I am now over 153k :driving: and going strong, mostly.
So, about HC, we actually arrived Wed the day before with imz4n in tow. Was going to stay in the smokey m ountains, but the rain made us change our minds, so we stayed in Greenville instead. Checked in on Thursday and actually got the cars washed before the rain destroyed all our hard work. :x
Went to the performance center friday morning and we only made 4 of the 6 races being offered. My best was 25.77 in the autocross and issed the best by 1.5 sec's or so. :headbang: Oh darn. I didn't fair well in anything else this year. Did the X3 course and had a great time on that.
Had a good time all the rest of the time. This thread is long enough, now. Time to go check on other threads..

Thanks 2zero. will be there for the next one as well now that I know I can do it in 3 days if need be. Wife and I did share turns driving home this time. I didn't realize how relaxing that is2 Zero said:
[
!]Ok, so wht do I mean if I could do it in 3 days. This year, we took 2 weeks off for our honeymoon, then worked 3 weeks and then took 2 weeks off for HC. They may not let us do something like that again.. :wink:
guess I was a wee bit behind there. Didn't read to the end, just responded as soon as the thought came to me when I was reading up from where I had last left off. Sorry. It won't happen again... :surrender:IMZ4N said:Hi all,
Reporting in as requested. All is good and I will have some pics up by Monday. We are home and looking forward to sleeping in my own bed for a chance.
Nice meeting all the faces behind the posts.
Bob and Robyn
Glad to see y'all made it home safe and sound! Had a wonderful time meeting you two and look forward to the next time we meet up (next year at HC?). Post up them pics and dazzle us with tales from the trip
