"As some of you participated and witnessed at last year's MFest (March 7-9 2008), it was the birth of something new and exciting for the BMW and other high-end Euro communities. During this first event, we had over 150 cars consisting of 95% BMW M cars, which ranged from older to the newest generation, as well as other high end European cars. And due to the overwhelming response, we've decided to hold it again this Labor Day weekend, August 29-31, 2008.

At MFest our motto is, "Redefining the enthusiast and the community through camaraderie." We thrive to bring the community together and always bring something new to the table for the participants and sponsors, and what better way to do this than in sunny Las Vegas, NV!"

MFest encompasses a three day non-stop action and excitement event for its participants, vendors and sponsors. There will be a go-kart shoot out hosted by sponsors allowing major exposure to fellow enthusiasts. A show and shine car competition which allows sponsors to come out and show off their products. And various night time activities for more "stage time" for sponsors. Our ultimate goal is to create a more relaxing environment were the participants and sponsors can have time to connect, be able to hear both sides and be able to grow together. We would like to make this event as special as possible to keep you anxious for the next.

At this time we would like to open the doors to other non-M BMW brothers (and sisters) that missed the previous event. We currently have over 200 vehicles already registered to attend, and we still have three more months until the next MFest! We are projecting more than 400 cars this time around!

We would like to invite you to come out and experience first hand what MFest is all about. Come have fun with us and support our fast growing community of "ENTHUSIASTS".

I was askd by Chris (Laidback) to gather and organize the e60.net heads for this big event. It'll be held at the Red Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, NV!

VT actually gets trashed everywhere he goes, doesn't even have to be Vegas. I think I'll just call him Trashed from now on. LOL

John, thanks for setting up this official thread and helping Chris out. Even though I might not be able to make it, I was going to set up the thread also to rally up the members here but glad that you've done it.

Alright fellas, especially all you SoCal guys that are just a skip and a hop away from Sin City, get your party gear on and sign up for this event ASAP!! Worse case is I'll just live vicariously through all the experiences you guys will have.
