Man, I was so excited to go to this, but that's the weekend of Petit Le Mans! My dad and I have gone ever year for the last like 13 years!

[3ZHP]

Sorry to hear that but, that's really cool that you've been able to do that with your dad for that long.

FYI, I picked that weekend because of Nashville Cars n Coffee. The first Saturday of every month is Exotics and they pack the house.

[ELCID86]

This weekend works well for me as I'll be in SC for parents weekend the following week. Though I will most likely skip the C&C after having just driven 9-10 hours... Looking fwd to the rest of it though.

And thanks for all the work putting this together for us!

Probably grab breakfast/brunch with Shawn, etc and then meetup with everyone after the C&C. Friday is going to a be a long day.

Totally understand. I was thinking that myself.

Just a heads up; even though is it a great distance, the highways move pretty good down here (70 & 55 min) most of the way and there's only a few stop light when you get to Franklin.

[Lorenzo]

Anyone have suggestions for nice places to stay along the way there or back, in case my wife comes and we want to extend the trip? Coming from northern VA.

I wanna say I'm in... but I have to put a little time in the new job before they know I have "the bimmer addiction", I think they can smell it on me though. :)

For what it's worth...

I have it under good authority that bimmer addiction does show up on pre-employment screening and background checks.

It's real obvious when you do a urine drug screening and you put a roundel sticker on the cap.

This will be the first meet I can't attend. I am getting married the weekend before, honeymoon week after.

Yeah, I was hoping these two events wouldn't be on the same weekend, but going to Cars n Coffee makes plenty of sense! I'll still be doing ZHP things, since I'll be meeting up with the previous owner of my ZHP at Petit Le Mans!

You guys have fun!

I don't think there will be a lack of ground transportation for people arriving from unreasonable driving distances.

Though, I am thinking of leaving my E46s at home, and rent a Camry instead.

I am trying to guilt my g/f into coming along...

My wife's friends wedding is ruining our usual cruise in the middle of October, so of course this is the first year we will be taking it the last week of September. Not booked yet tho, so I will see what I can work out. Would really like to get up there and meet everyone, 12h ride isn't too bad for me. Don't know if I could convince her to go or not. We will see.

Thanks for the recommendation. I think the most economical option will work best for me. Finances are going to be tight this summer with me taking extra vacation, and having to travel to Chicago area twice for the wedding... PLUS this weekend...

LOL, I don't need to go that cheap... I don't want to catch a disease sleeping in the bed!! :rofl

I actually am a member of IHG rewards club, I can get a room for 2 nights for free at Tullahoma Holiday Inn Express... I just checked, will only cost me 30K points. I'll probably do that. :)

All that???? Wow....

Are we going to have the tools and equipment to do all that kind of stuff?? I do some of the DIY stuff, mainly cosmetic stuff and stereo related, just not too much in the mechanical. I got some Koni FSDs new in the box and will be ordering the mounts & rubber related parts here in the near future, but was going to get my local Indy to do it.....

Some of the guy bring their own tools but, I do have most of what would be need if someone needs to borrow them. I also have a floor jack, one set of 4 jack stands, a creeper, a rolling seat, bench vice, a air compressor and air tools. I'm sure I missed something so, if anyone needs something specific let me know and I'll let you know if I have it.

Seth, you're running out of excuses....:p

Work one isn't going to be an excuse I run out of. I do 55hrs a week 6 days a week and no PTO.

Sorry guys.

You know we're teasing you :)

To be honest, we're in that same boat... that's why our names aren't on there yet. Kristen works roughly 65 hrs a week at her new job and I'm still looking for work, If/when I get a job, I might not be able to get any time off and Kristen getting time off will most likely be iffy... If we can make it, it will be last minute

[UdubBadger]

Hello everyone. I have been AWOL, but am back. I would love to attend this reunion, but already have plans for that weekend. My father turns 90 on FRI, 30 SEP and my mom turns 80 on SUN, 2 OCT. It's a big weekend and I plan on being in PR to celebrate with them.

[HiFiGuy]

I would love to attend, as well, sounds like a great event. We will be at NOLA Motorsports park in New Orleans for a NASA HDPE that weekend. Make sure to post lots of pics, though! Lots of great ZHPs will be roaming around.

I stopped at the Holiday Inn Express on Jackson St in Tullahoma, TN today to see about a block rate. Turns out that the rates have significantly changes from what I quoted in the original post. The manager Bryan, is checking with his area manager to see if he can better the rate. Once I hear back from him, I will post the new rate with a BLOCK code to use for reservations.

Just a little update from Southeast Florida... I'm still planning to attend. I am actually considering chatting it up with the wife and seeing if she'd be willing to go with. Not sure if we could make it happen, but I'd love to make that happen...

Either way, I'm still about a 95% confirmed as to going. I haven't made hotel reservations yet, but hoping to see us make use of the Holiday Inn so that I can combine with points I have for a free room/upgrades.. Last time I managed a free upgrade to the biggest room on the property... :eek Party in Joop's room! :roundel

Yes that's checking out on 1/2/16 and the rate is for each night.

Called - they can't take group reservations on the weekend, so I have to call back on Monday. I did reserve a room for Sunday night though so I could get some sleep before driving home the next day, so if I do manage a room at the group rate, I'm willing to take on a roommate if someone wants a cheaper way to stay at the hotel! Split halfsies of course. :)

3 nights total. The third night is more expensive because it is booked outside of the block reservation, so it's a standalone reservation for just one night. The other two nights are at the special block rate.

Going to ask about these alternatives for Saturdays dinner.

1. the original thought, Boskey's Grille at WillowBrook Golf Club, Manchester

I was thinking the open patio,(check pics on the website). Note this is 6 miles further to the east but no traffic issues.

2. West Main Brick Oven, Historic Manchester Square

New place, historic setting, great pizza

3. Coffee Café Restaurant & Bistro, Historic Manchester Square

Just a cool place with good food. The place is actually closed at the time of our dinner but, will open for us, for a private party.

Did a check of the entire thread and found we had missed a name on the list so, corrections made.

Also, need to note that Cars n Coffee is 60 miles and a hour and fifteen minute drive from the Tullahoma holiday Inn. I think it's probably best to head out from there at 6:45 AM. That will get us to Cars_n_Coffee at 8:00 AM and parking will definitely be filling up by then. We should all meet back at the cars by 9:30 AM to head to the meeting location for the rally.

I can't help the early rise but, it needs to happen with everything we have planned for that day.

Are you on Eastern or Central time??

Are you on Eastern or Central time??

Central Time

[fw_fw]

Central Time

What I thought, since you are closer to Nashville, but I had to check.........

[holyc0w]

I believe the breakfast is open at 6:30AM at the Holiday Inn, so that leaves a little time to grab a quick bite, or at least some juice and/or coffee.

[3ZHP]

This is what I'm thinking for Fridays dinner.

Hamburgers & maybe some specialty burgers all from Publix
Beer Brats
Whitt's Barbecue, Pulled Pork
Baked Pork & Beans
Potato Salad
Macaroni Salad
Chipps
Something for dessert
Beer
Soda
Sweet Tea
Lemonaid


Also thinking about doing an Egg Bake for Sunday morning.

[3ZHP]

Took a final test run of the reunion rally last night. Did some final tweeking to the paperwork and we should be ready to go. I think it turned out good and everyone participating should have a great time on some of the areas great back roads.

Things are shaping up, pretty good. [emoji106]

Yeh, great part of the country with some great people. It just doesn't get any better than that.

We done a lot of ground base travel in the last year that included AL, MS, LA, TX, AR, MO, IL, IN, OH & KY and we didn't experience anyplace better. Hope everyone feels the same after experiencing TN.

Did a check of the entire thread and found we had missed a name on the list so, corrections made.

Also, need to note that Cars n Coffee is 60 miles and a hour and fifteen minute drive from the Tullahoma holiday Inn. I think it's probably best to head out from there at 6:45 AM. That will get us to Cars_n_Coffee at 8:00 AM and parking will definitely be filling up by then. We should all meet back at the cars by 9:30 AM to head to the meeting location for the rally.

I can't help the early rise but, it needs to happen with everything we have planned for that day.

Just a couple things to note:

1) You can swim at the various Water Fall's if you choose Saturday's option 2

2) Snakes are at home here and have been seen on my property so, I recommend wearing closed toe shoes for Friday night

[WOLFN8TR]

I'm going to try and make it this year. I need to coordinate with Charlie.

A couple updates and things you need to know.

Jack Daniel's Distillery: We did the tour this weekend and found that there is now a charge for both the Dry County and Tasting tour. The tours are now between $14 & $20 and there are now significant restrictions on what you can bring in. See http://www.jackdaniels.com/en-us/whiskey/old-no-7 for more detailed information.

When we arrived at Nashville Cars n' Coffee at 8:00 AM, there was no room available to park all of the ZHPs together. This either means we don't park as a group or, we leave Tullahoma at 6:00-6:30 AM.

I found another option for Saturday dinner in Tullahoma. This is now One22 West formally Fast Jack's and under the same management. Always good food and service and now a freshly remodeled interior. No outside seating but, this location could work better. See http://one22west.com/menus/ for more information.

Well, as expected, I have to bail... With family coming down from NY for my youngest one's 3rd birthday, I just can't ask to push her birthday back a few extra days... Sorry gents, have fun, maybe next year.

Just a heads up,

Decided what I want to do on maint day. My brakes are ugly and rusted. I'd like to paint them black, silver rattle clip, a "BMW" logo on the front rattle clips, and a clear gloss finish. I've got the clear gloss, but I need black and silver rattle cans. Anyone have a suggestion?

I also have not done this before, and any tips would be great. What's the best way to remove rust/dirt/gunk before painting? My goal is to not remove any parts and just leave the brakes as-is on the car so it's all as simple as possible.

I tried to input the code online, but the site kept saying that the group code did not exist. Do I need to call them for the reservation?

Yes, you need to call to use the code.

This is special to us! You need to call the hotel direct M-F during the day.

Morning All,

We're starting to get closer to the reunion and I need some firmer numbers for the shopping list. So, can you please update the list of how many will be in your party. Yes, wife's are very welcome so, bring them along.

For Friday night, I'm planning on burgers on ciabatta rolls, Italian sausage with fried peppers & onions and some local pulled pork. We'll do a Mac or potato salad, some chips and drinks. I'll also do something sweet for desert.

I will have a donation jar for funding this at the reunion or, you can throw some money in my paypal account, to help get me started.

Thanks again and I'm really looking forward to seeing y'all.

Guy
