Was it crowed Saturday?

Won't be going anymore after wasting my Sunday morning.

There was a good amount of people, but not crowded. I think there was a bit less vendors this year compare to last year. Make sense Sunday would suck due to rainy weather.

They really need to find a better place to host it. Last year was super lame and I'm guessing this year was on life support.

Sunday is usually smaller crowds than Saturday. Also it was raining vs. sunny. I had 2 day pass and I remember Sunday being less people than Saturday in the past. It's better to go on Saturday with more caravans and meetups beforehand. It was a blast leaving from a spot near my home and then driving to another meetup that was bigger about 2 miles from the venue, then we headed over and there was a line going in but it was fine just chilling in our cars in line and doing some rev battles. The Sunday event as i said much smaller crowds, no line going in and the infield lot only half full versus completely full on Saturday. They may just make it a one day event in the future as they may have lost money on day 2.

Where there more venders on Saturday? It was a really weak showing on the venders section.
I was hoping to pick up some coilovers from someone who didn't want to lug it back to the office.

Yes there were definitely more vendors. And more epic rev battles between exhaust vendors' cars. There was a Lambo Aventador that wasn't there on Sunday that sounded sic! It was just better overall so the day to go if you're not going both days would be Saturday.

I’m not sure locale is the issue. Having a track course, autoX, is actually great. Not too many places have that going for it.

It just seems that the vendor rep was low this year. I don’t know if it’s advert costs or what. I’m used to seeing 4-5 BMW dealers and this time I think there were only two.

The Bimmerfest shirt booth was very disorganized and selection left a lot to be desired. And WHY was Alfa giving hot laps instead of BMW?

It’s always good seeing other enthusiasts show off their cars though.

Most of the better venues are located where land is cheap that's why it's in Fontana or Thermal, CA. or Willow Springs.
