“Drew’s Run” is a short Rally dedicated to a friend and fellow car enthusiast who died this past year at the age of 24. Drew had a long hard fight with cancer and managed to pull through, but as soon as things starting getting better he found himself in the hospital again. This time facing one of the most dangerous procedures in the medical field, a bone marrow transplant. He underwent intense radiation and chemotherapy and was putting up an amazing fight. However the infection was proven too be to strong and on August 9th 2007 Drew found peace, he would have been 25 August 12th.

More can be found on his site at www.drewspinelli.com

Drew loved cars and also appeared in my last dvd “Ready Fuels” in his BMW M5. One of the things Drew wanted to do before he passed was to take some good friends and have a small Rally/Cruise. However the drive never happened and as we have Drew in our thoughts and his family in our prayers we do this drive for them.

Well I am still here in Miami after just getting back to the Hotel I decided to just throw some of the pics up from the drive down and the Meet and get together in Miami.

For those who are not familiar with the meet/run see http://www.BsaintMedia.com

A few of the shots from Day1 Philly - Ashville NC

This is not a Bimmerworks error btw lo

Oh and yeah this is my new estroil hahah for those who don't know.

Jon decided he was lonely in the Vette so he picked up a friend:

After getting hit by a truck tire gone rogue, we had to do a Certified BF.c Repair on the M5:

Well I'm still going through other tapes from the Rally, but I can only put so much action and footage into a teaser. The rest of the footage will be on the DVD late Fall and we also will be having a screening for that as well. I am going to try and get everyone who was on the run together for that as well.

Anyways enjoy,
