Building a 1-series 135i Track Car

vlkwagen · 08-07-2010, 10:21 PM

This morning I installed the 355mm stoptek kit along with the vorshlag camber plates and the M3 control arms - awesome

make sure to get a vented hood. That will go a long way to helping the cooling and high speed grip. A lot of hot air is kept under the hood.

vlkwagen · 09-02-2010, 05:51 PM

I have some new pictures to post of the car
At Watkins Glen with the Audi Club

zsapphire7 · 09-02-2010, 05:53 PM

MarkR171 · 09-02-2010, 06:03 PM

Looks like it's coming along nicely! Obviously needs some wider wheels/tires to fill in those ER fenders!

your front plate is blocking air flow to your intercooler...

I have seen some pretty dumb things but this ranks right up there. what's the point making a track car if you don't understand the basics? geez...

Sorry but that is really bad. Your iat's must have been well over 240.

moveswiftly · 09-03-2010, 11:01 PM

lol wow....

moveswiftly · 09-03-2010, 11:02 PM

something about that front bumper doesn't look right, and it's not the plate...maybe the fitment?

DigIn3D · 09-04-2010, 12:56 AM

You guys are pretty harsh on the whole license plate. LOL

vlkwagen · 09-12-2010, 10:42 PM

Some new pics from Bimmerstock 2010

vlkwagen · 09-12-2010, 10:44 PM

Oh yeah by the way I'll be at Summit Point the 25th and 26th of September for an Audi club track weekend and I'll be at Mont Tremblant the following weekend, October 2nd and 3rd

People nearby should either come out and run or watch

Mitch1er · 09-12-2010, 10:45 PM

^please don't tell me you drilled the front license plate on that CF bumper!

zsapphire7 · 09-12-2010, 10:47 PM

you guys are so fixated on that plate

Sal@AUTOcouture · 09-13-2010, 08:56 PM

why are the front wheels concave, but not the rear? Wider up front?

moveswiftly · 09-13-2010, 08:59 PM

Nice license plate haha...love the car bro
