Is anyone in the bay area? LOL i hella wanna drive down to sac and watch....It would be nice to see the potential of a tuned 335i

Bummer, can't make it, probably best as my less modded MT would be crushed. Be sure to post your times!

Yeah I know, just sour grape'ing that I couldnt make it. I'll catch you guys next time.

Yea definatly not who's di*k is bigger contest. I'll be the slowest car out there just because I'm breaking in my LSD....no hard launches.

Hell, last time I was out at the track I was practicing my launches......nothing better than a 5 second reaction time I wouldn't go on green, rather, I tried launching at the perfect RPM. Gave me my best times when done like that. Funny part is, you can still catch/beat the Hondas and SRT4's I just go to talk cars, drink beer, and drive fast....

Stock is the perfect time to run your car. It will give you a baseline so you know how much power the mods give you. Wish I would have done more stock testing/racing. Just come out and do a few runs, not like we are going side by side (it's usually too crowded to set that up). Most likely you will be up against some "rung what you brung" f-bodies

Dan, Trevor and Tyler will probably be there, so you wont be the only 335, he also uses DR's/meth/ect..

Count me in I'm out of class at 7. My 335 still in the shop but I'll come to watch and talk cars!

[muncheese]

Cant make it...i let my brother borrow my 335i for school in san jose, since his M3 had a check engine light come on. Im down to go tho if i had a ride lol

[ironic]

[divang]

- Limp mode on nearly every run.
- Tried to diagnose but car ended up dying (unsure why, still need to read codes)
- Little later battery died but I thought it was something else. Wouldn't crank.
- At this point, I called for a flat bed.
- $150 and 2 hours after later, I got towed home.
- I pulled out V5 to see if that made a difference. Nope.
- Got some guidance from Shiv.
- Jump started but let it build up charge for 10-15 minutes first.
- Car finally started and is running good again.

Pretty disappointing day. I'm not giving up. Going to work on it Mon/Tue. Trevor and I will be attending next Wednesday. Will see who else will join.

Lastly, Trevor had a great day. He put down several 12.1's. One of his last runs broke into the 11's. I hope to have a similar outcome next time.

Damn, that's a few bad days you've had lately.

11's, that is pretty damn sweet.

Cya this Wednesday

Not bad but would like to hit 11's. Maybe on race gas.

I know you can. 11's are not as easy as everyone makes it out to be, I think most of them are full of sh*t. Are you warming those DR's up before you launch? I was hitting 2.0 60' times on my street tires, maybe you could give them a good burn out. FYI, 115 mph is about right with meth / 91 octane, so your car is running good. Runing the rule of thumb, every 0.1 sec 60' = 0.2 sec ET. So getting your 60' to 1.7 sec = 11.6 sec ET.....give or take some

Sorry I didn't make it out, I was flew until 6 and didn't even get home from work until about 730....I wasn't scheduled to fly that long.

I'm a road course guy too, I just don't get off on 1/4. That's just a rule of thumb with those times, obviously 11.6 is crazy fast but you would see 11's. I'm guessing race gas = more timing = faster traps 120+

I'm suprised you even use DR's at all! I'm too scared of snapping something, hence the reason I use streets. Also, I like to run what I use for my daily driving.
