April 9th Buttonwillow BMW CCA

They need more people to sign up or the day is going to be cancelled. I'm signing up tomorrow, wondering who else is going.

Dude(tte)! RENTAL CAR DERBY!

Some of the most fun I had on the track was hanging with an E92 M3 in a 4 cylinder ECOTech Chevy MALIBU in the corners at LVMS only to watch him disappear on the straight.

Nope, the euro motor spun 3 rod bearings on the way home from Buttonwillow last September. Car is currently getting a cage put in it (should be done this week), then the hunt is on for an M52 or S52 for JP or IP, respectively.

Meh, I did the club race school at Road Atlanta in a Saturn Aura (4cyl). I drove the damn wheels off that car but couldn't manage to pass a single car (almost all were prepared race cars with instructors driving ). It was depressing. The only way I'll track another rental is if its a rental race car.

This was a good event. The HACK - were you there? Blue Z4M? Might have parked near you at the motel.

Bro - think I saw your car... the only red E92 that was there.

Yup that was me. Had a good time in the last session chasing a silver 335, but got a limp mode just after the turn off into the hot pits. Had to drag around the whole track stuck in one gear. Sorry to all the people I held up!

LOL. "She" is around 30 lbs and taller than most of her friends who are about 6 months older than she is. But no, the seat is attached behind the passenger seat, not the driver's seat so when we unload her from the car we'd unload from the curb side, not the street side. That's my friend with the red NSX in the back seat.
