Nah but I'm keen for a ride in your new car Michael. Hit me up if you decide to go for a long drive down to Broadbeach.
You've set the bar pretty high with that 11.8 run in your old 135i. I'd like to know how the SC M3 goes at the drags.

Nice work! A better 60ft will see you in the 11's!

What wheel/tyre combo you running?

Shame I only just seen this Edwin. I was down the Goldy last week/end. Would have been great to catch up. Next time!

Only managed three runs due to getting there late and a couple of long stoppages! My first run ended up being my best!

I'm running Michelin PSS 235/35 and 265/30 on style 313 19's 28psi at the rear and 50psi at the front.

I'm surprised you're running the tyres that low in the rear tbh, i actually had a leak in my tyre which i discovered when i gave the car a bootfull in 1st the rear end squirmed around on me much more then usual. My first thought was hmm that felt weird...

The next morning i had the idrive flat tyre warning message (kudos to bmw for their tpms) pulled into a servo and she was on 28 psi. The guys at the tyre shop stated that apparently i had a small incision in the tyre where something had pentrated the tyre and fallen out...

Yup that's me! I saw you at Advan one day on a Thursday when I was picking up my HPFP from Stu. I think you'd just freshly bagged you E90 haha.

Why only spectate?

Ahh yeah that would have been me haha! Na, I called Thony last week before I went out to WSID and he said you're generally keen to go out but I don't have your number or anything so yeah.. I was all lonely

This week one of my mates and his dad are going out in a CLS63 so I'm keen to go again and see how they go. Not sure if I can be bothered running myself this week, not like I'm going any faster or anything lol

Yeah, I think I've gone about as good as I can without resorting to taking out seats/spare wheel etc... Like last week I just went for fun without any prep. Was running normal street tyres at usual pressures, good tank full of fuel etc.. lol Who knows, I might drive but I'll see how I feel on the day. You going out for sure?

Yeah I reckon I'll definitely go. The last time I went my car wasn't running right. I need to make sure it's all working right before my "Farm" day. Also I really need the practice. A friend with a 180sx should be coming too. I might also go the following week lol

The timing doesn't go for long enough to wait for it to reach the 1/4mile mark.

Also sweet, I guess I'll see you at WSID on wed froop.
