B3R 2011 Pictures

I'll start this one off with pictures from B3R.

Starting from Asheville we met up at the Cracker Barrel for breakfast.







Tray, Jimmie Johnson wants his car back!




Brian soory about the pic, but everytime my camera focused on your car
it decided to change some settings. Must be white balance thing.






All the way from Indiana. A nice GSL.


Another nice first gen from right there in Asheville.

We headed out after breakfast to find the parkway and then on to meet up
with the caravan from Atlanta.



We all got to the parking lot together at the same time. Great timing!

Going in order from old school first.





Now some FCs.







Lastly some FEs, this first one is supercharged.

We saw some snow above 4500 ft. elevation. Its ok because it was ~65-70 F that day.



Doin' a little sight seeing and visiting.





At last we got to the camp and all setup our tents.

This B3R was the best; best weather, best turnout, best camp party, best
homebrew, best everything. Thanks Tray for dreaming this up. It gets better every year.

I know I missed pictures of some cars, especially if they came to the camp
on there own or showed up in mid run between stops. I also never took a pic
of my own car. DOH!

No video this time due to operator error. Seems that my $30.00 video setups'
user interface leaves something to be desired when you don't put the memory
in the camera. I also have no pictures from the evening or next day because
my camera stopped working, may have been the cold that got to it.

Anyway, post up more pictures. I'm sure others took better ones.

Tim, I'm so glad I got to get some of your homebrew this year. That was very good stuff!

You guys are lucky you get to do stuff like campouts. I wish people around BC did that sort of stuff. Looks like lots of fun!

I'm glad everyone liked the beer. I only came back with 2 unopened I think. I'll
take care of those no problem

I always brew a B3R batch and next year it was requested that I come in with a
high gravity (high alcohol) brew. I'm thinking a large dark belgian at around 10%
ABV will do the trick.

I posted this picture thread here specifically because we need to get more 1st gens
or old schools rotaries out for this event. I always feel like I'm overwhelmed by those
pesky FCs, FDs, and FEs. At least this year we had 2 SAs and 2 FBs show up. Of
course Marcos' RX3 was a great addition. Like to see more of those as well.

Jeremy, you have to bring out the RX2 next time, no excuses.
