I would like to attend, but want to know if I need to register my 7 year old sons. They are not members nor associates, and I kind of think making them associates for this event is silly. Also,...
Last month the National Capitol Chapter lost a good friend in Fitzgerald Pollard. Fitz was a regular at drivers schools and had recently been made an instructor. I enjoyed his company at other car...
If you want to make this happen, contact Gordon Kimpel. He is the BMW CCA NCC contact for BSR and has coordinated skidpad days in the past.
Great pics! I hope you don't mind if I down load some of the ones with the little red bug ;o)
It was a fantastic weekend! Variable weather including cloud bursts allowed for lots of changing grip conditions. It is hard to imagine what it would have taken to improve the event. I forgot how...
Do you think kids can't tell the difference between games and real life? There is every reason to believe that playing video games helps build driving skills. The F1 teams spend millions on...
The vid is a classic but largely a fraud IMO. The sound is dubbed and explains why the tire squealing doesn't make sense. I believe the driver never really got about about 85mph. Sorry to kill a...
General Polymers is the industrial high performance coating wing of Sherwin Williams (who owns Duron) I spoke to my sales rep about what would handle my usage: hot dot r tires, jack stands, dropped...
I love the idea of a Baltimore GTG. How about a place that has parking, TVs, and good food and drink? There is Damons in Hunt Valley or by Glory Days Towson.
I regret that I could not go. I have yet to drive VIR in a fully healthy car I felt confident in.
Since the AL part is not OEM I ordered from another source. Of course it arrived late so I replaced the plastic housing with a new plastic housing that was part of the package deal. Now I have the...
That would be a cool idea, but the O2 sensor is so close to the plug that I needed to use an open end wrench to turn it. Even slipping a box wrench on it would have been impossible.
Vader was getting thirsty consuming about a cup of coolant while beating up p-cars at a recent PCA event. Inspection revealed the the area around the thermostat housing was moist. Since Vader has...
That was "Firework Boy Colin" with the Speakman biting holes in the right seat.
Say! Great pictures! What a great event. Also, the dent doctor was amazing. He got a total of 7 dings out of my car for $200 and I cannot find where the dents used to be. Richard really knows his...
I checked that 1st thing. My mother had a Corsica (POS) and it blew coolant into the oil. Ugly!
Vader seems to be loosing coolant at a rate of a cup every few months. I can note a slight antifreeze smell if I open the hood, but I cannot find any evidence of drips. Is it possible some is...
Katie,
Nice to meet you and thanks for posting the photos. What a beautiful day to play with cars. All the scraping of my airdam is making me consider larger sways...
Is it OK to bring spectators in an effort to sink the hook?
Say, that diner is close to me and I love fat breakfasts on Sunday Morning. I'll see if the wife and kiddies wanna go play with the car guys for the 4/19 event.
When I did my E36 M3, only inserts were offered. I was just at my father's house and he had a set of full struts for his 318ti. I don't know if the 318ti vs M3 matters here, but I was surprised...
What a sad race for Kubica. He was passing for 2nd when he and Vettel touched. I believe Bob had some blame because going around the outside is always risky, but what a shame. BMW seems to...
So if you get a nail in one tire, do you patch both tires on that axle? ;o)
I respectfully disagree about replacing both sides. I have replaced both passenger side bearings on Vader, but not needed either drivers side replaced yet. I replaced the front one about 8 years...
