More than a few cars should be on coils on the day I'd imagine. Evans definitely on coils too if he rocks up.

Because of my tyre issue, my settings are hardest rear almost hardest front, so quality will be quite hash, a different sort of harsh to runflats though. Happy to take you around. I'm on KW v3s.

Can't remember off the top of my head but I don't have camber plates, so its max'd out within OEM adjustments.

As much as I'd like to do the full spur run, there wont be enough time to make it to Albert Park by 10:00 (even 10:30 seems unrealistic).

Anyways just want to get some numbers, place you name in the roll call if you're attending the pre-drive...

2) Liub (Michael) -> Maybe

7am or 10am as stated but doubt the fellas will be hanging around too long.

Guys if you're attending the drive please mark your name down so Carl knows to wait if you're running a little late!

Lol WAY, you can hang with me in the ex-e82 135i club

I prefer no earlier than 7am too. Mark your name down so we can leave with minimal delays

1) Stylish (Carl)
2) Liub (Michael) -> Maybe
3)
4)
5)
6)
7)
8)

PS. This won't be a drive to the spurs due to time constraint. But a relatively spirited drive it may be =)

Carl,
I won't be able to do the run but I will turn up at the meet up point just to say hi. (Same as haunted hills last year). At least the effort is there.

I have 2 appointments that I need to attend to before the 10am meet
