When: June 8th and 9th, 2012

WHAT: Timmayfest is a Nation Wide BMW/Mercedes Benz/Exotics car meet put together by true enthusiasts. It is not a car "show" and there is no entrance fee. It is just a gathering of people who share a passion for high performance driving machines. We had 130 cars in 2010 and over 200 cars in 2011. We have people attending from all over the country, CA, GA, FL, NY, MD, PA, MI, IN, MN, KY, TN, VA, for example. It is a chance to finally meet some of the people we talk to every day on this forum.....

Friday June 8th - Drag Night, 4pm - 11pm - Eurocharged has graciously PRIVATELY RENTED the Marion County International Raceway for our use. MCIR is a 1/4 drag strip. There is no charge to attend and watch, but there will be a $50 fee for anyone wishing to race to help pay for the track rental. Remember, this event is for BMW/Mercedes/Exotic cars only. We had a lot of fun last year. It is a great chance to line up against your friends and put your cars to the test. This is not overly formal. There are plenty of safety rules, but you don't have to be an experienced drag racer to participate. Last year was my first time ever on a drag strip!

We would like to meet for lunch around 12pm or 1pm on June 8th, then travel as a group (caravan style) to the drag strip. We will announce the lunch location later. It is about an hour away from the hotels/Quaker Steak and Lube. We are shooting to arrive around 3-4pm so everyone can prep their cars and get ready for a night of FUN!

Marional County International Raceway
2303 Richwood-Larue Road
La Rue, OH 43332-9293

Saturday June 9th - Timmayfest 2012, 10am-4pm - We are meeting at the same venue as last 2 years, Quaker Steak and Lube in Polaris. It is a very convenient location with plenty of hotels, restaurants, and the Polaris Mall right across the street. We will of course have a DJ spinning some tunes, and plenty of vendors with items on display.

Quaker Steak and Lube
8500 Lyra Drive
Columbus, OH 43240

Saturday June 9th - Post Meet Dinner/Police Escort, 6pm-7pm - We are hiring a police escort this year to travel to the restaurant. We will meet behind the Hilton Hotel (8700 Lyrad Drive) at 5:45-6:00pm to be lined up by our police escort, departing at 6:30pm, dinner scheduled for 7pm at La Scala Italian Bistro.

Here is a note from an officer concerning a police escort:

"Seriously though guys, not to scare everyone, but a full blown escort by 2 cruisers and 2 bikes is serious business. We can't have guys jumping line and acting like idiots. You will never know when a bike is flying up at 120mph to get the next on ramp blocked. If you jump line, it could cause serious injury to that officer. If you can't follow the rules during this 15 mile escort, you will be asked to not attend dinner, and you WILL be ticketed. So please, everyone act responsibly and let's have a blast!"

If you wish to not participate in the escort and just meet us at the restaurant, that is fine too. Dinner reservations are set at 7pm.

[Eurocharged]

We are always happy to be sponsoring Timmayfest and excited to see all of you guys who can make it out. As the event date gets closer we will be posting some more promo stuff associated with the event, links to local caravans from bigger cities and things like that. We had a HUGE turn out last year and want to make it even bigger this year. Also we are considering having a Eurocharged location at the show blocked off for cars who run our tune as part of our section... if you guys are interested in showing with us and have or plan on buying a tune from us let me know and we can add you to our booth for the show. You can expect several beautiful young women to be prancing around your cars and a lot of attention on your car ;)

Woo!

It was definitely a bummer not to see the dyno last year. But of course it was all because of that part that didn't come in time.

This is my home town so if anyone needs a place to crash I got a couch and some floor space and I'm not too far from the festivities (maybe 15-20 min).

Can't wiat for this...Those of you coming from Chicago, would you like to meet up at my parents house on the North East Side of Fort Wayne and drive over together?? Its about a three hour drive from Fort Wayne to the event location.

[UdubBadger]

We usually take 65 down to 70 and shoot through that way but I'll talk to my boss and see what he was thinking this time. We ran into a bunch of cops last time so maybe a new route isn't a bad idea.

Do tell :) lol I haven't yet looked how to take the trip off....is it the same as the E46??

[danewilson77]

Just ordered some smoke side markers, yellow fog bulbs and the plate mount for the tow area. Two tickets for not front plate on my old SUV so I can't take anymore chances. Will need tint too but that will have to wait. I just got another ticket on the Audi for tint on the front windows. Sucks!!

similar but the center dash panels are a but different and have vents attached. Also the center console is different but yours ('09-'11) doesn't have the ash tray door which was a fun one to take off - 9/10 people break the tabs when trying.

I've been to Timmayfest a few times, and I can tell ya, that the Mid-Ohio event going on that weekend OWNS Timmayfest, you will find me at the racetrack :)

WOW, after looking at the itenerary, looks like they have put MUCH thought and effort into this years Timmayfest compared to previous years. MCIR, Marion County Drapstrip is gravely and slightly uphill, don't go expecting a great time :) Its cheap fun though. LaScala is very yummy btw.

Fantastic price for what you're getting! Paid $300 and thought it was worth it.

[carsontl]

what kind of performance boost are we talking here?

Do you have a before/after shot of your dyno sheets?

[Eurocharged]

Go ahead and look here and if you have more questions then you can post in there... Wanna keep this thread dedicated to the meet, not our tuning.
