Where in NC? I live in Charlotte.
Winston. Will you be my friend?

What kind of BMW are you selling?
Winston is about 1.5 hours from here. It's an alright city, pretty small. Charlotte and Raleigh have much more going on, but it's right in between the two, which is kind of nice. I'm def down to meet up at some point! Are you interested in track days or autox or anything like that?

I'm not really selling it, kind of a joke. I just bought a 2014 328i M Sport, Estoril Blue six speed :manuel:

Thanks - It is nice but I realized xDrive was a mistake with the horrendous steering feel and massive wheel gap.

To answer your previous question; Auto-X isn’t really a thing here but I’ve done a few track days and I’m always up for karts. I’ve heard the place in Mooresville is supposed to be really good!

Oh yeah, Go Pro is actually pretty world class as far as karting goes! That's the perfect :meat: up between Charlotte and Winston too.

Hit me up when you get here and we'll go.

Swedish Chef and I were actually planning on All-star weekend, as it's his first one, and much more reasonably priced.

I'm assuming you were talking about the 600?

Edit: Looks like pricing isn't that different.

Yeah I always go to the 600... All Star is actually better, 600 is like the shittiest race in NASCAR. But we always go, tradition. I would tailgate with you for the All Star race either way, or :meat: up in some capacity.

Hell yea! I'm skipping Watkins Glen this year and wanted to try something else. I was thinking on Sunday after the race try to do a couple shop tours and maybe Go Pro Motorsports Park.

I'm perplexed by the snow on the windshield and the proximity to the side of the road.

Where were you for that photo?
Right off the Blue Ridge Parkway near Waynesville, NC.

Updated in the C5 thread. I was out of town last weekend and work all of the time during the week so I didn't have a chance to check it out until this weekend :disgust:
