itsthechuck · 07-14-2008, 03:26 PM

Wow looks like fun, i'll have to make the next one.

Rachel · 07-14-2008, 06:15 PM

I think I do win the worst sunburn... I almost match my interior! I had a wicked good time though!! Can't wait to do it again, signed up for the test and tune in august

roldan · 07-14-2008, 08:52 PM

A few of my pics also... I'm also signed up for the next test and tune and the autocross on the 27th. Sweet.

Nice meeting some of you, Rachel thanks for letting me drive your car, that was a BLAST, now get some huge stickey non runflats

larryn · 07-15-2008, 10:23 AM

Next T&T is going to be run solely by me, and a bit different. We're going to have a full autocross course straight out, and four separate exercises to the left main runway. I'll break the large group up into three groups.

Group 1 runs on the autocross course
Group 2 works the autocross course
Group 3 runs on all the exercise areas

Then we rotate groups every 50-60 minutes. That way, you're only working 1/3 of the time.

Also, there's no cutting in line or gridding. If you're running on the autocross course, you finish your run and get back in the line that loops back to the start. If you choose to pull to the side to do anything, you get in the back of the line when you're ready to run again.

Looking to get more seat time (though a lot of people got close to 20 runs in!!), less waiting, eliminate any frustration! WOOT!!

I quoted you and posted it on E46fanatics.com, I hope you don't mind.

Bdh821 · 07-15-2008, 05:11 PM

So where do I sign up for the next event?

roldan · 07-15-2008, 06:36 PM

Head over here: http://www.boston-bmwcca.org/events/...px?EventID=397

I'm also signed up for the Advanced Driving Skills School the following week, which sounds sweet and is a semi-prerequisite for track day driving schools: http://www.boston-bmwcca.org/events/...px?EventID=371

larryn · 07-15-2008, 06:41 PM

Oooh! That wet skidpad at the ADSS is a blast. Definitely take the chapter up on the rookie discount too, if you do sign up for a DE. That's hefty chunk of cash they give you in credit.

Dave, thanks for posting that over at e46, and I don't mind in the least. :smile: I also popped it on e90post. I was totally into Nikki's 'hello kitty' numbers. Those rocked!

Don't worry, I wasn't upset. I still had to defend my quote though!

I think my stomach has finally settled down. But my sunburn is still sore.

amy!

Yes it does!

Hey, we were missing a black 1er car there. You gotta come by an event, even if it's just to hang out. We're good about taking people out as passengers too. :smile:

tiintegra · 07-17-2008, 08:36 PM
