UK: Gaydon August 19th 2012
Seeing as a lot of UK guys are pretty spread about, i was wondering if any UK members on here are going to attend Gaydon at all?

Europes biggest BMW show held at Gaydon near Coventry. You can have a blast around Aston Martins test track too

I'll be there again this year with my car at our BMWowner stand.

It would be nice to meet up with a few board members and put names to faces, share ideas etc?

I would be quite up for this. If I do go I'll be bringing a couple of BMW cronies in their feeble E36 M3s I was gutted I missed the Kent meet, would be great to see some of you chaps. My car my even have been mildly resprayed and tidied up by then as well. Still sporting some damage from the Ring...

Myself, Dan and maybe 1 other I know of (M5's that is) will be going up but I think we are aiming to be on the BMW owners club M section.

Wouldn't worry to much about it, previous years there has always been a pace car that you are not aloud to go past so you can't go full out mad on the track, also I would never take my car on it as lets say its not prepared for the day so you end up with allot of stones being kicked up. (never been on myself this is just what others have told me).
