Improved reliability = Competitive advantage
Gentlemen, choose your weapons carefully.
Modifieds have run at LRP in the past. The rules didn't allow for road racing transmisions and subsequently, there were lots of gearbox failures. I've got a 3 speed, but many (most) have 2 speed...
Living the American Dream. Now, go mow the lawn!
During the regional qualifier, he went by me prior to the chicane. I followed him into the boot where he went off at the toe of the boot with both fronts locked up. Looked like he just overcooked the...
I concur with Noam.
The cars are heavy (by at least 150 lbs), the 2d to 3d gearing is fustrating (especially on the uphill at NH), there is virtually no aftermarket support for the 318i/is, and...
Safety yes; however, reliability is a competitive advantage. :rolleyes:
How about a survey question response to: Saves you from dying (or becoming a quadrapalegic) in a crash because you would have otherwise suffered a basal skull fracture...
Just watched the impact video.
So why was Hunter rolling across the track into the path of the Miata?
I've had two hits in the past two years where drivers didn't lock 'em up and rolled across...

Awesomeness if tech is available for annual inspections on Friday.
Car is a 1997 318is. Feel free to PM me. I've not been able to get down to weight (currently 2690 with 1/8 tank of fuel). Well known that there is not alot of power to be had from the M44. Pricey...
One of the Skippy instructors (John Murphy) has a Busch car and has run it at LRP. He told me that he never knew there were so many passing zones until he ran with the Busch guys!!
BTW, the BMW...
With 200 lb driver and 1/8 tank of fuel, car is 95 lbs heavy. Thinking about spending a year in Ethiopia to make weight. :lol:
Spec line?
Some great people in BMWCCA CR. There are very fast cars and talented drivers. However, it's also a place where a few "not so great " drivers take their beautiful showpieces for some track time.

Regarding speed, drag and downforce:
The Skip Barber school cars (without wings) are faster (top speed) than the Skip Barber F2000 race cars!! How is that possible with the same chassis,...
Rob, you have my sympathies ...........really. :( I'm thinking about making lamps with bent lower control arms.
Great racing from the back. I had a blast working my way thru the pack. Lots of...
I agree with including more, or all, races for final points. Perhaps drop 2 races of the 14 race season (best result :unsure: , and worst result!!) Also, eliminate the bonus points.
Broke is an understatement!!! Ha, ha......
I was gunnin' for ya' Andy :D Figured it was my only chance this year to finish with you in my mirrors. Unfortunately, I was collected by a spinner...
After video review of the play............................ B)
Brake cooling ducts are allowed. Heat sinks - errr not really. To say that "my car's brakes won't make it thru a race" is not a valid excuse for what may, or may not, be an illegal modification....
Thanks Andy.
Spec line is correct per the current GCR and Fastrack. I asked for a separate spec line for the car. I also asked for both 15 inch (stock) and 16 inch (listed as optional) wheels (as the 1995 318ti,...
