It's pretty damn big...

3 years ago we had roughly 500 people and about 330 cars if I remember correctly. The following 2 years weren't exactly the same as previous ones (the year after wasn't really planned because I was too busy to plan it, it just sort of happened and I did everything VERY last min, the turn out was still big though! Last year I didn't organize it because I was getting married and busy with work and school, so someone else organized a meet in it's place, so technically BAM didn't happen last year, not officially, it was held in Fremont and only about 120 cars showed up which is less then half compared to normal).

This year is going to be HUGE. I expect well over 300 cars and we're going to have much more stuff going on in terms of events at the actual main event, like a car show, cook off, DJ, huge *** raffle with some amazing prizes, and much more).

It's bigger then most subaru events, and it's the oldest of them all, this is the 9th annual.

PS: I think the east coast meet is bigger, they have much more people in their area since it's like 5 states and we're only the bay area. They have BAM beat by about 15% I'd say roughly. We're older then them though.

WBM (If that's what I think it is looks really fun, the east coast subaru folks seem really cool and very family-like, I wish I could attend one year)

I'm hoping that we can break some records this year with an official count thats documented by pics/video or something. We're not trying to compete with other meets/events, just with previous years.

One thing we do have is some EPIC vendors! We have some of the best vendors around which makes the event really big! We have a lot of support since we've been around so long and everyone knows us. It sucks that Subaru won't be there in full force again this year like they were 2 years ago... They will be there, just not fully.

PPS: Another great thing is the freebee's from vendors... Nothing better then our raffles though! This year is going to be better then all previous years combined! From winning an accessport to a sweater, we have just about everything!

It's been a long time since we had 300 cars, I think the biggest meet was 2005.
