Cool pics guys. I was supposed to go to AVN this year too, but didn't end up going.
BTW, whose silver e60 is that. Is he a member on here?

I didn't think you guys were going to actually post about your weekend here, but here's a thread I made about running that STI
http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...d.php?t=669819
Going to vegas, I normally do around 90-95 the whole way regardless of what I'm driving and without radar. I just try to keep it under a 100 as the tickets get pretty severe above that point. I wouldn't mind driving a SUV up there, but it has to be something with a little passing power.
Following you guys back to cali was fun. I've never really done those speeds for any extended period of time before. Usually I speed up then get scared of the popo then slow back down again.

You kidding me? We always post about our out-of-control weekends in Vegas. Road trips to Vegas deserve a thread.

With you being a busy man and all these days, there's no way you could've went on a Thursday. We'll do another Vegas run in a few MONTHs. Blah.... I'm sick of Vegas right about now. 
Speaking of which we had someone in our group spew chunks.
