    Dorkfest 2018 - 8/11/18

    BFEC7E08-E1B0-4C86-81F1-BD64C448577F.jpeg
    8/07 announcement!

    Here's the schedule folks:

    7:30am: MZ3 Coupes can start arriving at the VDC for preferential parking and begin registering.
    8:00am: Non-MZ3 Coupes can start arriving and begin registering
    9:00am: Registration ends and tour starts (please be prompt in assembling for the tour)
    11:30am: Lunch catered on-site
    12:30pm to 1pm: (Option No. 1) Mullin Automotive Museum 1421 Emerson Ave, Oxnard, CA 93033. If you purchased tickets in advance, head over to the Mullin as soon as you finish lunch. The museum is less than 10 miles from the VDC, but closes at 3pm.
    You must purchase Mullin Tickets in advance.
    https://mullinautomotivemuseum.tix.c...px?OrgNum=3205
    12:30pm to 1pm: (Option No. 2) Canyon/Coastal Drive. For those who want to drive and sightsee after the VDC instead of going to the Mullin, Dan Green will lead a tour of the following sights:

    1st Stop: Paramount Ranch; 2903 Cornell Rd, Agoura Hills, CA 91301
    2nd Stop: Trancas Country Market; 30745 Pacific Coast Hwy, Malibu, CA 90265
    3rd Stop: Point Mugu Rock; 799 Pacific Coast Hwy, NAS Point Mugu, CA 93042
    End: Pizzaman Dan’s 2390 Las Posas Road, Camarillo, CA 93010

    Enter all four stops into your navigation system of choice and then assemble behind Dan's car after lunch at the VDC. At that point, you can follow Dan as he guides you through the most exhilarating route (time and traffic permitting). Or if you want to drive more leisurely, follow your navigation.
    Whether you're exploring the twisties or lingering at the sightseeing stops, make sure to arrive at Pizzaman Dan's for Dinner by 4:30.

    4:30: Dinner (informal, buy your own) at Pizzaman Dan’s 2390 Las Posas Road, Camarillo, CA 93010.
    Long time Coupe owner, Tom Koger, will cover appetizers from 4:30-6:00PM to promote his new company Alternative Performance Engineering (APE). APE sells a Flex Fuel conversion product and Tom will be answering questions and offering special Dorkfest pricing. One lucky person will win a free X85 Flex Fuel Power Module.

    Are you going to be coming up with a hotel package again, or is this a do-it-yourself event?

    Regretfully, the VDC has asked us to postpone our visit due to an unforeseen distribution spike in July. They have offered to make it up to on August 11, 2018. We considered alternate venues, but we feel the opportunity to tour the VDC facility is too good to pass up, even it means waiting another month. We apologize if you are inconvenienced, but we hope you will still join us on August 11, 2018.

    I’ll be there, indubitably. My estoril is in Wisconsin, and I doubt that my other coupe will be ready before then... so either I will be showing up in a Z4M coupe instead, or I’m going to be crashing in on some partway caravans. Heck, or I can pull the trigger on one of those Phoenix, or Alpine coupes I’ve been eyeing up and down... yay! Excuses for extravagance!

    Also, I can do the local drive coordination, if the position is still unfilled. Just let me know, and I’ll get it handled.

    Welp, that means I probably be missing it then.

    Was there a choice of dates available for the raincheck, or did you guys just take the first date they offered? I didn't see a poll or anything posted.

    Sorry you can’t make it Dan. Are you out is commission the whole weekend?

    The VDC rarely opens their doors to the public and we’ve had to learn the hard way why. But when their schedule allows it, they go all out. We’re hoping to get a good showing, but we realize the date change threw some people for a loop.

    Hmmmmmmm. Roadsters allowed? It’s okay if I have to park away from the cool kids.
    My wheel bolts require more torque than your honda makes.

    I'm supposed to be in Europe from the end of July throughout August, so unless I can REALLY shift everything, I'm out for everything.

    The day will start at 8:00am at the BMW Delivery Center (VDC). Lunch will also be served at the VDC. Next stop is the Mullin Museum from 1:00 - 3:00 or a canyon caravan.
