Going to ORP (O’Reilly Raceway Park) this coming Tuesday, October 14th, for Street Legal Race Night. Anybody who wants to join me is welcome. This past Tuesday was cancelled due to weather. There are only three more weeks to 'Race' your car on Tuesday night. Always wanted to do this:thumbup:

OK, there's another guy with the Dinan stage 2 flash in Indy! :biggrin:

Picked the car up this afternoon......and promptly went back to work, so I haven't had much time at all in the car. All I know is that traction is a major issue when the roads are damp. I can't wait until we get a couple nice days here.

First, CONGRATS on your Dinan Stage 2 Performance Upgrade

You will love it!!! Wet/damp roads are quite a problem with that much torque

...However, when the payment is dry your car will fly. I swear at times it feels like it's coming off the ground

Enjoy

and be safe.

Thanks, I hope to get some more time in the car when we get a nice day or two!

Wet pavement definitely requires a disciplined right foot :biggrin:

audi2bmw1 · 11-17-2008, 03:34 PM

^^^ yes it does....i still in the breakin period and loving it....cant wait till i can floor it past 4500rpms

MastaMind · 11-18-2008, 08:29 AM

I remember breakin, it sucked. Once things started started to get good, the party was over. Get some more miles on that beast, and congrats!

Congrats on your new 1er! Yeah, it's tough not pushing the car like it "wants to be driven." I have around 6,000 miles on mine, and it is by far the most fun and quickest car that I have ever driven

Be safe and enjoy your new ride:thumbup:

audi2bmw1 · 11-30-2008, 08:28 PM

thanks all.....i love it more and more....its tough keeping this car stock....i dont want my great warranty voided for any reason...and scared to tune now cuz of the new ECU updates that can detect tunes and piggybacks....anyways its great stock and yes its my fav car ive driven and im very proud to say i own it!

Luvmybmw · 12-02-2008, 07:03 AM

Just curious, how many 135i or 128i owners in Indiana?

Luvmybmw · 12-02-2008, 07:05 AM

My guess is between 10 and 15:iono:

MastaMind · 12-02-2008, 07:44 AM

Hell, I've only seen one other 1er in person up here on the North side, so 10-15 sounds about right. Hopefully more owners will post in the regional forum!

My wife has seen a 1er on the Southside, but I still have not seen another 1 except mine:iono:

And on a sad note...my 1 is in for the winter

You and me both, bud.

I guess it gives me something to look forward to in the spring. By that time I plan on redoing my suspension. I think I've only driven my car twice since the reflash!

Another 135i checking in from Ft. Wayne. 2008 Black Sapphire/Boston Black. Picked it off the lot a week and a half ago. 225/40-18 and 255/35-18 Blizzak's were installed 5 days later. :roundel:

Welcome and congrats on your 1er:thumbup:...You will love it

emongoose · 12-12-2008, 10:51 AM

Enjoying it very much. I especially like that fact that I'm willing to drive it in virtually any weather. I owned corvettes for the last 7 years and never wanted to get them out even if there was the possibility of rain. So I spent most of my time driving an old '90 Toyota 4x4 with 2 corvettes sitting in the garage staying clean.

I promised myself I wouldn't fall into that same trap with the 1. I've made it out a couple times in the rain, and a couple snow showers, and don't feel like I have to go to therapy!

Although I've already washed it twice!
