Weight
As for weight, I have reduced the weight significantly - I weight 220 lbs, and with me in the car she corner balances at 3111 - that is not bad at all
She was 3400 lbs stock with all the power seats and the sunroof - my car is the first 135i in the USA without a roof - (I think) - it this car was a base model with only power seats as an option - So I have saved about 500 lbs off the stock car - there is still more to save as I have the radio in her and the door panels - they come off this winter Truly and awesome track car - I was going to get a 1M but that car is heavy and mine is just as fun Anthony |

that's a hell of a lot of weight savings.... Good work.
how much has drivability suffered as a result of the weight savings? how's the in cabin volume and shakes/rattles? |

TC Kline's 135i race car had the European-only roof panel sans sunroof, I believe.

I am going to assume you say you were slowest because of your driving and not the car, correct? I hope so.......

Final Pics
Here are a few more pictures
They clearly show the double oil coolers The last four shots are at NJMP Lighting and in two of them one of my good buddies is driving while I ride shotgun in my own race car - scary and cool to see your baby being flogged! Enjoy and ask lots of questions - I know too much about this car! |

Anthony,
good to hear from you and glad to see you charging hard. car looks badass as always but how come you're not racing? also no tune?! why all the hardware if no tune? I am interested in upgrading to the PWR radiator. I had heard there was some fitment issues. any video's from your adventures? you should look me up next time you drop by at summit point. cheers,
