HRE Wheels was proud to be at Oktoberfest again this year in Monterey, CA celebrating BMW's 100th! I was one of the lucky guys to tag along and help others out but when I wasn't, I was taking photos for you guys!

At Folktale Winery & Vineyards was a gorgeous selection of BMW autos and motorcycles:

On Thursday we excitedly took a small drive to Mazda Laguna Seca to check out some of the gorgeous cars and motorcycles!

After wiping up most of the drool we decided to walk over and talk to the guys at Michelin Tires to see what they were up to. They had a huge section of the inner track to themselves with an autocross course set up which about 35% of which was sprayed with water to keep slick. They also had 2 F80 M3's, one of which had Michelin Pilot sport all season Tires, the other had Continental DWS 06's. The difference in performance was pretty clear to me and also to those who were fortunate to be able to take a couple trips around the course.

Thanks for taking a look! If you'd like to contribute your own photos from Oktoberfest, feel free to post them up too

Great pics! I am surprised you didn't post any of the fantastic collection of Alpina's at the Winery.

Aren't old BMWs so much better than new BMWs? Some beautiful machines there.

Jurrian, great photos from the event last week! I am adding a few more; many of the ones I took were very similar to yours, so hopefully these are a little different.

Thank you! Yes you're more than welcome to add any photos you'd like to the thread, and I'm glad you did because it seems like you've got a much better camera

It certainly was! Except I got a little too much sun

Great photos!
I missed out on Oktoberfest, but hit Legends of the Autobahn and the Motorsports Reunion.
(And I'm such a poseur - I got the Oktoberfest shirt and wore it at Legends.)
