Thursday, April 15th, 2010

If you ordered a shirt/hat/decal online, but weren’t able to get it at the event, please contact me!

I sent out a bunch of emails from the store the other day, please check your spam folders for it. I need to know who to send a shirt to.

4ngiefest 2010 recap and Final words

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Well this year was a definite success! I really don’t even know where to begin with all of the thank you’s and whatnot.I guess I’ll just start here..

Throughout a few pitfalls, changes in personal lives, and a few speed bumps getting there… 4ngiefest 2010 was the biggest yet, and also the best year we have had. Thank you to all of the people involved and who has volunteered their time and efforts to make this thing happen.

I want to say a thanks to our sponsors for even enabling us to put this on. Without you guys, we would not have been able to do anything. So thank you to Jason and Evan from getBMWParts.com, Rob @ UUC Motorwerks, Jim Ellis Audi, COR Wheels, Khoalty, Shane Ewing (Our DJ) who flew out from LA last minute to provide some tunes, Donnie and Steve at Design House for the shirt production, Emily Covi (SixSquared) for the shirt design, Mike R. at Jellybean Greetings for the decals and stickers. Stanceworks for bringing a crowd and that bad-ass car! Ivan and Anthony for the GX HID kits too!

I also want to say thanks to Sharon at the JW Marriott, and their entire staff. The concierges, guest services, and especially our bartenders.

I want to say a big thanks to everyone in the background who doesn’t have a company or a business card. We mostly are all just user names, but every year we get together to put a name to a face and meet you all. People like Swinford and Shawna who help getting the word out through friends like Stanceworks, helping Hass at the entrance, being a sponsor liaison, and promotions. Kpeng and the other photographers for the video footage and thousands of pictures, Gunnar, Christina, Ray, Daryl, Talha, Kalim, and everyone else who posts all over the internet to spread the word (even though some of them couldn’t make it this year), Farrah (my girlfriend) who jumped into the pit of fire and handled ALL of the t-shirt and decal sales at the event, put up with my insanity and still had a blast, Kevin for getting me the Control Arms and FCABs so I could even make the drive, Jason and Evan again for the after party and donations, getting me parts ASAP so I could leave, as well as the liquid refreshments all night, Seth for promoting and for helping get DUCKY home! Timmay for the after party at cheetah, Dan (4ngie’s brother) for bringing out the trailer for us, driving us around, and helping out whenever needed, Hass, Bridgette, Timmay, and whoever else was helping with lot entry and collecting $$, passing out stickers. Marisa & Vik, and everyone else from the northeast/MAR for helping promote.

Thank you to everyone who pre-ordered tickets, t-shirts, hats, and whatnot on the website. Even if we didn’t get you the shirt at the event, you will receive it in the mail as soon as I possibly can. (I really didn’t think we’d sell out!)

Thank you to all of the forums and moderators for keeping our threads open and clean. We gain support and attendance because you are the doorway to get to everyone. So thank you to Tim and everyone at e46fanatics and e90fanatics.com, bimmerforums, bimmerpost, the Porsche forums, everyone at the Audi forums, Mercedes forums, various racing forums, the Volkswagen forums. there are literally hundreds to list, and i don’t know them all, but thank you!

Thanks to all of our facebook friends that help spread the word. Also all of the various bloggers out there that help by linking to us.

Thank you to all of the people who just openly donated. Even if they didnt make it, they donated still for a good cause.

…and a last thank you to everyone who made the trip, booked the hotels, and came out for the weekend. THANK YOU!

We were able to collect more $$ than we ever have, and the best part is that a check gets written to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Oh yeah, and thank you to VaderDave for not coming, even though he did help with promotions and advice. We love you!


how to pronounce 4ngiefest

Seems to be some confusion, but we commonly go by saying “angie-fest”

Hope that helps!

Last minute orders!

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Just a heads up:
we only have 78 shirts and 11 hats left. so get your orders in if you want one…

Also! Decals WILL be there this year. I ordered 100x today, only the 4″ smiley, and the 4″ Gumball (no year) though. 50x of each.
