If you're looking for a 1M build thread, there a quite a lot of them out there, mostly all in the photos and videos section.

Ilikebmxbikes, mybad135 and venom are names that spring to mind.

Car is really looking great!!

Do you have any more photos of the 1M fenders from the side or reports from the track on the wider stance?

Something kind of like that. It holds up to years of racing better than paint or wrap material.

I should have some on track pics from COTA in Austin soon

An update - in the recent BMW Club Races at Road Atlanta, Ralph Warren was able to get an overall field win in the 135i

Hi All -

Is it my sad duty to let you know that the 135i hit a concrete barrier in a race at VIR last month and the car has probably seen it's last race. It has been sold as is for parts to a 135i racer in Ohio

Sorry to see this. At least it will go to a new home and the parts will be given a second chance at some track time.

Any future plans?

NT01's work at about 38 psi hot. Camber depends on the car. I think we were always about 3.5 - 4 deg. negative camber

Driver was okay and the guy in Ohio that bought it as a parts car is supposedly going to fix/rebuild it to go along with his other 135i race car.
