Thank you! Very happy with my 50.999 in my stock 06 325xi!!! I can't wait to ditch the 16x7 runflats next year.

Waytogo, car 203! Second in class!

In addition to obvious driver skill, perhaps your DIY efforts at preventative maintenance et al are helping to keep you at the front.

Slainte,
Alan

Thanks Alan!

However, my driving skill remains in question: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFU3b...e=channel_page

I went too fast through the back gates and missed one of the gates for an 'off course' on that run, you can hear it called on the video. At that point I just thought I'd have some fun and go entirely too fast through the slalom section, and earn my 'captain backwards' nickname again.

Bogdan remains the big dog to beat. I can never touch his times.

Also, I believe the M5 in S1 should be in S2.

Somehow I went off course on runs 1,2 and 4. But from the times that I heard, the 3rd was still my fastest. But I got videos of all 4 of my runs, and I can't for the life of me see where I went off. If I didn't see it at the time, I don't know what I'd see different now.. who knows.

Want to post one? Maybe we can see it.

What was your car number, I have a few more videos I haven't posted yet. I can check what I have.

The M Coupe was me and i should be in T1 not T2. Either way i would have been thrid. If i didn't end up coning or off course i would have been first.

It was my first BMWCCA event and i had a good time. The event was well organized. I usually attend SCCA events and instruct at track.

I wish the tire ruling was different as well. The only reason i'm in T1 rather than S1 is for tires. Well i guess it won't matter next year when i do the suspension.

I had a good time but the course really didn't have a flow to it. I understand they were trying to slow cars down for the islands but it could have been made so you just go straight through.

T1 and T2 are for E9X M3 and E36 M3 respectively (and other cars, those are just an example). Did you mean 'I'm in T1 rather than S1 is for tires..." ?

oops i fixed it i meant S1

If frogs had wings... Obviously you're fast. Way faster than me, but I kept it away from the cones (I was technically fast BMW, thanks to you and Joe B. coning). Keep coming out to give Bogdan something to think about in T1.

I think your options are S1 or T1. No T2 for you. What tires are you running?

I've never done an SCCA event, but every video I've seen was on a "flowing" course. I don't think we'll be able to do that on our lots. I do plan to try an SCCA event (maybe the next one), but I'm not going to be willing to do what it would take to make my car even slightly competitive. Right now the car goes in BSP, because I replaced the steering wheel with a non-airbag wheel, and I can't change it back. It would just be for fun.

i'm most likely going to be coming out to more events. Its kinda hard when track events are are on the same days.

I wouldn't mind having some competition in T1.
