traffic back to so cal was a biatch!

[tooshay]

Mfest IV was great. I had a great time the whole weekend. The only thing that sucked was the traffic heading back to So Cal from Vegas. I left Vegas at 2pm and didn't get back to the OC until 8:30. Boy am I tried from shifting back and forth from 1-2-1. But I guess it was all worth it. Great seeing so many BMWz out there.

[bombguy]

I left at 11 and got back to Redondo at 4:15. That goddamn agriculture checkpoint slowed traffic for 10+ miles....PITA!!

[JDM99]

I left at 12 and got to LA at 5 wasn't so bad for me. But had a blast was a really fun weekend!

[Tofunin]

left at 2 got back to riverside around 7
i got owned by a shredded tire busted my foglight and bracket, stripped a few screws from my lip and scratched up passenger side doors. I was following the south bay autohauz e46 m3 and 135 and they ran it over too.

+ 1 Traffic Sucked. I was wondering if they Traffic Break at stateline so people get off the highway and spend there last dollars in the Wild Bills slots.

[leeor]

*DCT* ;)

[LateBraking]

Traffic indeed was a bitch. Left at 3 didn't get back till about 9.

[BG87]

[EAS]

We knew traffic would be horrendous, that's why we left at night time ;)

[sam12345]

the traffic was TERRIBLE! i wokeup around 4pm. by the time we left it was 5:30 and we hit major traffic on the way back.

I hitup the shoulder lane a bit, but was too sketch :(

[constantin]

[busdriver]

I had a great time, never seen so many M cars in one place. Thanks GTHAUS for the invite and thanks Chris for the award. It was fun seeing all those BMWs on the track.

[RaDs330]

+1 traffic was horrible. I hit up the shoulder for a good 3-5 miles, stopped and primm to gas up and the line at the gas station was insane. I left the M resort @ 3, hell I didnt get back to Huntington Beach until closer to 10... other than that I had a blast this weekend.

[OCKlasse]

Yeah, it was a pain!

Some people were smart and using the service road before the checkpoint...I need to remember that!

[g24]

Its going to be better next year with that VF Blower under the hood because you will be able to FLY!:woohoo:

That's Yermo Rd. correct? It looked like it merged with the Agriculture checkpoint on Google maps anyways...that's why I didn't take it. Traffic was definitely moving on that road though!

I am glad I left Sat night at 8:30 got back into Fullerton by 12pm. Even had a high speed chase which when by me and 30 minutes late stopped the fwy for 10minutes. I had a great time with all you M-Fest guys.

[GOLFFRR]

tried to leave at 9am but still drunk, so we left at 10 got home to Solvang at 5 i think.

[RaDs330]

[Audio City]

yea it was really bad. i just popped in a movie and just saw that while i sit in that annoying traffic. Mfest was great

[t3stman]

We left around 3:30ish and got back to OC around 8:30ish. On the way home Yellowfever (Tony), myself, Sard (John), and rightftc (Toby) had some fun on the fwy :woohoo: We did a few runs against each others to see how our cars perform :D

Saw the traffic as we were driving on yermo rd. It was a quick ~10 min drive, which passed all that slow traffic. Merged back on the fwy right after the check point.
