Once again I joined friends on our spring trek to the Tail of the Dragon. I spent 3 days at a gorgeous lodge in the mountains. The Thursday morning sunrise was to die for. I got 4 runs on the TOD with the Z4. We also toured other great roads and stopped at a few waterfalls along route 64. We then headed to Greenville, SC for the Southeast Sharkfest. Friday was spent at the BMW Performance Center. I got to drive an M6 on a small oval course, an M3 on an Autocross, and a 135i on a wet skid pad, DSC off! Saturday was the E24 show at the Zentrum. I saw two F10 5 Series there. I posted a thread with pics on the F10 sub forum.

Here is a link to all of my pics: My TOD & SESF Pics Well at least those I uploaded as I took over 900 pics.

Bottom line: 900 miles, 25.2 mpg, 4 runs, 1272 curves, 0 tickets, and countless smiles.

My Z4 made the TOD weekly highlights on this website: US129Photos.com

Just to make this post more relevant to 5series.net, besides the E24s, there were quite a few generations of 5 series at SESF.
