Pittsburgh GP

[Bwana]

Did I miss the thread or is this the first notice? Is anyone else going?

I shipped the car to a friends house in Woodstock, we're flying in on the 4th to pick it up. We'll be there with the Classic Club. Arriving Sunday, leaving the following Monday. Probably going to take a lap of Watkins Glen on the 7th on the way over.

Here are some coupes from the BMW corral at the PVGP Saturday races. BMW was the featured marque and 2002's were celebrating their 50th. The estimate I heard was 750+ BMWs onsite. Let's see if I can get these labeled:

George Phemister from Ontario:

Chris Ohmes from Vienna, VA:

Wayne Killen from Ashburn VA:

Dohn Roush (I think):

Art Wegweiser from Allison Park, PA (yes, he was there):

Luis Arisso, Fox Point WI:

Lothar Schuettler, Darnestown, MD:

Axel Coelin, Norwalk CT (that's Axel waving):

Jeff Haught, Conroe TX:

Pete Yap, Silver Lake OH:

Thierry Verstraeten, Pittsburgh:

Steve Weiss,Baltimore:

Part of the lineup:

Some prewar beauty:

and some of the hordes of 02's. That's a 328 on the track:

Rear view of the e9s; the track; wimpy little MB group; Wayne and Fran and Harrison on the right:

Very pretty 507s:

The 328s:

Luis sings along with "In heaven there is no beer, that's why we drink it here..."

Roll with it

I guess you say, what can make me feel this way? My girl....

Walkin the paddock

Future heartbreaker

The action gets hot n heavy

And for the second time this year, the last hour of my drive home was more exciting than planned

The 1972 CS from the PVGP Tune up Party Wednesday, July 11th 2018.

Dohn Roush on Saturday July 14th.

Art Wegweiser's Ilse with a rose to commemorate his late wife, Paul & Erik's mom.

Chris Ohmes, Wayne Killen & Steve Weiss on Sunday July 15th

The 328s from Saturday.

Lowell Paddock won the BMW CCA's Parker Spooner Award for his original 1972 CS he imported from Germany. The photos are from Caffeine & Carburetors in New Canaan CT. I realized after the fact I failed to photograph Lowell's CS while I was talking to him in the hotel parking lot.

Thierry’s bumper guards are upside down making them almost look like a 73.

Note the new E9 Register badge on the front of my coupe. The perfect touch!

Have to agree; that looks great.
