Sonic Cruise-In's. Currently held at the Sonic Drive-in 1305 N Germantown Pkwy  in Cordova, TN. This is an all Euro-Car meet. Loosely organized, it's just a place to grab a burger or shake and hang out with other enthusiasts. Lotus, Ferrari, Alpha Romeo, MGs, Mini Coopers, BMW - you never know who might show. Start time is about 6:30pm.  Second Saturdays of the month during the summer starting in April - check the calendar for any changes!

TSD (Time, Speed, Distance) Rally.  This is a test of precision and attention to detail, not speed. All are welcome to participate, and you'll need a driver AND a navigator. Given a sheet of directions, you are required to navigate a route maintaining a specific speed over a specific distance. Not too fast, not too slow. Various "checkpoints" are scattered on the course where you are timed. You get points for being early or late. Points are bad. The team closest to zero at the end is the winner. These are a LOT of fun and get you out on some fun roads you probably have never driven. We usually hold one in the spring and one in the fall. Currently our next one is tentatively scheduled for sometime in the fall.  Again, see our forum for discussion and our calendar for specifics. Never done a Rally or need instructions?  You'll need to read over these!! TSD Rally Instructions

Auto Cross. Held at Millington Airport in Millington TN. Auto Cross is a timed event on a course outlined with orange traffic cones. Speed is kept to 50mph or slower and involves controlling the car and not flat out speed. This is a safe (the only thing you can hit are cones - only 1 car on the course at a time and there are no poles, ditches, or walls on the runway) and fun way to push your car and your skills as far as you dare. Build confidence and learn the limits of your car! We hope to hold these several times a year during the spring, summer, and fall. Interested in being on the Auto Cross committee? Email us. Due to the EXTREME heat in the summer, we'll hold our next Autocross in September after Street Survival. Watch the calendar and forum for event dates!!

Car Shows. Show off your BMW!  The next event is the Euro Car Show in Bartlett, TN hosted by the British Car Club. Date is Saturday 4 October. Proceeds go to Youth Villages. More info as we get closer!

Dinner Meetings.  Held the 3rd Thursday of each month.  Check the calendar for time and location!

Spring Cleaning/Detail Clinic.  Held in the Spring - if enough interest, we may do this again in the fall. Join us for a Saturday of cleaning and detailing your car. We'll wash, polish. wax and detail. Experts will be there to help you get your paint looking like new.  Learn how to remove swirl marks, sap, and protect your finish and leather interior.  Check the calendar and forum for any last minute info! (Getting the hint yet?)

Wine Tasting. Set for 12 July - this time we are headed to Jackson, TN to the Old Medina Winery! Check the forum for more info!
