    Dorkfest 2018?

    Hi everyone,

    I've been a SoCal Coupe owner for almost two years and, due to scheduling challenges have missed previous Dorkfests. In an attempt to attend this year, I was wondering if anyone knows the dates/rough location for Dorkfest in 2018 so I can get them blocked off on my calendar. I can't seem to find any posts here and all the Dorkfest-related websites seem to reference previous years.

    Are we doing an event this year? If so, what are the dates?

    Thanks!

    NorCal coupe owner reporting in. I'm interested in a coupe gathering this year as well. I have missed previous Dorkfests/Zfests and would love to attend.

    If nothing else, it would be fun to get a group of coupes together around Bimmerfest this year.

    Yea I think so.... And wasn't there talk of free M Rain hats for all attendees or something?

    I know Matt (OP) would be happy to bring his coupe back to AZ for a visit!

    Well, I flew down to Phoenix to drive my M Coupe back to California, I could probably find my way back to Arizona if I had to.

    I’d love to take my Coupe back to visit Arizona. Or a gathering for Bimmerfest. Or whatever. Let’s hang out!

    I'm down for a Phoenix gathering! Question is do we organize it for before summer kicks in (as in very soon), or do we wait until Sept.-Oct.?

    With 2017 being canceled in favor of Zfest, and no mention by the organizers of a 2018 event it isn’t looking promising. No reason not to organize an event in your area, though. I’ve done so several times in Oregon and Washington.

    Combine it with Bimmerfest at AutoClub Speedway in So Cal. That will give participants stuff to do, its already set up, and would be pretty simple to piggyback the event
