Yep, Norm does really good work. I had my front bumper and rocker panels done.

I was thinking of getting mine done at Earmark, anybody use them yet? Probably going with them for tint anyway...

[TX1SERIESM]

Hey guys I have a friend that works for a tint shop in Arlington (near the GM plant) that has always done good work. Tint and the clear bra (including the door handles, mirrors, and rear quarter panels) set be back about $1,100. He said the 1M was one of the harder cars to put a bra on. PM me if you want his info.

Saw an AW car today at lunch @ the Golden Chick on 14th in Plano.

Who Dat???

[Mnime]

Not me...

[fermat1313]

Anyone going to Cars and Coffee Saturday? I'm going to get there early and try to get a spot with my VO 1m.

Hit me up if you're going to be there. Steve@doublebagel.com.

Doesn't someone in the DFW area have the Eisenmann exhaust (i thought i saw it on a thread somewhere)? If so I would like to meet up and hear it in person.

Since everyone has gotten their cars... we need to have a big 1M gathering..
I had to work today.. could not make C and C.. perhaps the next one or maybe some other Saturday or Sunday afternoon with good weather....

Great idea. I'd love to do a meetup separately from C and C, without the tons of people and parking issues and what not. I like the idea of an afternoon meetup somewhere.

I met up with MNIMEJCW at C and C this morning. IOt would be cool to get a bunch of 1Ms lined up together there sometime. It would be quite the display. Of course, we'd all have to get there pretty early to have space to park together.

Really a whole row of 1M's at C&C right across from all the M3/M5s would be cool!

Nice to meet you today Steve. Hope to see you at the track sometime in the near future.

The Leander C&C is tomorrow morning. I have a recently installed. Eisenmann if you want to check it out.

[Mnime]

thats a little bit of a drive for me But maybe i'll see you at a track event sometime soon? Doing TWS in March with TDE so maybe i need to find a route thru your area.
I could have swore I saw that someone in Plano had it installed as well...

[Mnime]

I know its a ways off but this might be a good opportunity for a DFW 1M get together...

The Lone Star Chapter of the BMWCCA is hosting the Annual Spring Club HPDE.
We will be at Motorsport Ranch in Cresson Texas on April 28-29. The best thing is we are running the 3.1 complete track at this HPDE. Spots will fill up QUICKLY. We are having 3 run groups and a race.
Advanced cost is $250 for the weekend
Intermediate and Novice are $295 for the weekend.
The reason for the cost difference in for an instructor to be in the car with you.
Registration is open now on Motorsportreg,com Here is the direct link:

Well the track *is* the perfect environment for a 1M....... I would bet that we will have about at least 6-8 registered at the spring DE.

I'd definitely like to have a get together before then....

C and C is a struggle for me.. (to get up in the AM!) I know i won't make the March C and C..

[robertm]

It's been a long time since I really looked forward to a DE but I'm looking forward to this one! Also gives me a target time to get all the 'enhancements' installed

Oh and that's not true. I was really excited for the last DE too. I got to instruct 1M Tex in his 1M. Not many folks get to ride in a 1m before picking there own up. I got to drive one on track

[BrianB496]

Saw a VO car @ 190 and the DNT on my way home last night.

Then this morning was cruising across the Bush with another AW 1m.

For such a rare car I am starting to see a lot of them.

I was at ECR last weekend and Linda said they will run the track backwards this weekend..... I am in for Saturday... Ken O also says he is in... anyone else want to come out...?? Weather should be awesome!

Ooooo, I don't think I can swing it. Daughters birthday with a big sleepover. Momma would kill me. Rain check please. I've never run ECR CW.

I haven't either. Would like too, might be more fun. Shame you can't just pay by the session or even half day out there. $150 is too much for a just a couple run sessions, which is all I'd be able (or really want) to do..
