New Jersey BMW CCA

Hi Taxwoman,

May I add my congratulations to Seppi as well; very good news - think I'll have a drink in honour of this happy event!

Please tell Manfred that Buffy says "hi."

Best Y'all,

Buffy

Hi Folks, Just a quick "thanks" to all those involved in making last nights banquet such an enjoyable event. The ice sculpture was fabulous, the food was excellent, and of course had the pleasure of meeting other Club members. It was our first event, but from the great time we had, it certainly won'...

Don't know one personally in that area, but try: bimers.org for local shops. Hope that helps.

Hi Neil,

Thanks for your quick response and the good info - jacket and tie is just fine (for him, that is). Must say that the NJ Club is the most friendly and helpful of all the Clubs I've been dealing with.

We look forward to meeting you as well.

Thanks again,

Buffy

Hi Folks, Asking for help again - good thing there's no charge or I'd be broke by now! My Husband and I will be attending the February 10th Banquet to meet some of y'all and have a good time too. We sent in our registration form/ check and now are wondering if we will get confirmation, or do we simp...

Mike,

Thanks for the info; it's hard to be the new kid on the block and have no background on anything that's going on, but everyione's been so nice.

Much appreciated.

Buffy

Hi Folks,

Y'all must have read my mind, because I'm doing some scheduling as well. Being new to the Club, is one Autocross location much different/better than the other?

Thanks for your help again.

Best Y'all,

Buffy

Hi Drew I've had very good luck and good prices with: Carradini Auto Rebuilders at 111 W. Main Street, Rockaway, NJ - phone is (973) 627 - 7717, and ask for Bill. I know it's a bit of a hike from Hoboken, but they are excellent diagnosticians, will not perform work you don't need, and they'll inform...

Hi Bob, Thanks for your words of encouragement, they're very much appreciated. At Pete's suggestion, I watched the movies from some of the events of the DelVal Chapter; what a great way to learn. I must admit that the speed, in combination with skill refinement appeared a bit daunting at first. That...

Hi Dave, Sorry is took so long to get back to you, but I'm trying to figure out a schedule and make up my mind about what would be the best approach to take between the autocross and the track. It will definitely be a combo of both, but the order is still up in the air a bit as you'll see below. Qui...

Hi Pete, Thanks for the info - I'll take a better look when I get home from work. April and the Jefferson track sounds like the best deal so far - but do they do as good a job with things like the "mentoring program" as you guys here? At least for the first time, I'll need some "hand holding," I sup...

Hi Jeff, Wow - you folks are really something, if I had know what a great group this is, I would have contacted y'all a lot sooner. Now that I've got "track fever," June seems like a gazillion years away - hope I just don't pop by then. Distance is not an issue for me; I take my "Girls" to Scranton,...

The mentor program for "newbies" is a great idea, since you can't really know what to expect, although you do know your own expectations. Perhaps it's a good method of clarifying or "managing" expectations so that they are able to be better met realistically. I will apologize in advance to my mentor...

Hi Folks, Didn't really mean to start a war here, but Christina, I'm a pretty easy going person with an extremely long fuse, and lots of self-control thrown in for good measure. That being said, I certainly don't expect more than I'm due, but I do want what I paid for. I'm surprised that you didn't ...

Hi, If I'm not mistaken, I've seen a similar answer to this question on the BMWCCA website under the "technical" heading. If I am mistaken, you may want to post your question there, since Mike Miller (Tech. Editor of Roundel) regularly responds to reader questions, and he's pretty much on the money....
