    Yeah, same here. New to the forum and just had my M for a year now. Nice to see the pics in the forum, but it would be great to see the cars in person. Anyway, I am in the Orange County area.

    if you do a little spiritive(sp?) driving, you can and will make it in 30 min. im from riverside and last time, flying through ortega i made it in 42 min. nothing to really brag about, but i think that is decent time. but thats just me.

    I live in Westmister OC..so I take the 405 to the 5 when heading to SD. the fastest and furthest I've ever got in 30 was that check point/truck scale before Pendleton. That was at 11pm averaging 90mph. There noway I can go triple digit through Dana Point/San Clemete cuz the 5 is so shitty with pot holes, uneven asphalt/concrete.

    Ortega is garbage, don't waste your time, its so full of the Lake traffic now days, you can't have any fun.

    Anyways, there really aren't any clubs in OC, but we do get together for meets once every few weeks. I HIGHLY recomend going to some of the SD ones as well. My first meet was in SD, and I still hang out with most of the people I meet that first night.

    But do join the BMWCCA. Its worth it just for the magazine. And with that, you can start autocrossing

    Welcome, have fun with that car.

    That's all subjective to the time you go. To add to the lake traffic, also the laden construction vehicles. Even on weekends, they're present after 8AM...
