As mentioned in Drivehard's post here: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=508336


Anyone else interested in getting some seat time before BMW CCA's next event?

[DriveHard]

I'm in... for sunday at Tobay. !! the lot is a TON smoother then at the coliseum..

I'm in Also.

Alex, your thread was a great idea. I'm going to try to get as much seat time in between the BMW CCA events as possible. I signed up with the CCA so I'll have earned back my membership dues in 3 events.

Mohammad, I hope you get switched to summers for this autox. I'd like to see what a 135i without crazy wide front tires and camber plates can do. Hopefully I'll it'll give me an idea of what a 135i should be putting down time wise.

Ill be able to stop by for a bit to say hi. But I wont be able to run. My tires are still efffed.

I was always looking to E46 M3 as comparison, as we were always around the same time. with the upgrades I need to aim higher now. E30 M3 on R-comp here I come

Yes having winter tires is a big disadvantage. I am purchasing them
In a day or two.

look ^^^^^^^

DriveHard. I really appreciate you taking your time and posting up all the events and their full day schedule. It's alot of help. Instead of googling around for trackdays/auto-x only to find out we missed it. We can just come into regional forums and get ready for a trackday ahead of time.

ur welcome..

My Job allows a certin amount of "google time" because

a) i have 4 persons under me to do most of the work
b) my work comes in waves... i literally sit and wait some times for something to do. But when it does... Hold on !!

I just cant get caught up reading some thread's ( like the 1st 1M ED delivery one) I can get really lost in those...LOL

[DriveHard]

bump..

so what the final tally,

the 4 of us running and broken vert watching??

anyone else ??


p.s. LUBO..... Guess what santa dropped off for you today !!!

[tcd223]

Don't know if Matt is going to be around. I think he got the week wrong.

I'm in to run, bringing one observer, and have hopefully convinced at least one other friend to bring his car down to participate.

I picked up a roll of painters tape because that masking tape I used last time baked onto the paint and took me an hour to clean off.I'm also going to need to get a compressor that can hit higher psi's then my conti comfort kit lol.

what time are we all getting there ????

[tcd223]

I'm going to try to get there as close to 7 as possible, but realistically I'll be there by 7:30.

As for the car show, I'll do that as well and I'll rsvp once I convince my buddy with his sweet E24 635CSi to agree to come too.

[DriveHard]

Ok cool, see you at 7:30 ish...
