Nice! What is behind the tall grass?

bmwerkes · 07-06-2004, 02:58 PM

Is more grass, we autocross on an old unused runway. The tent structures are probably portable hangars for private planes.

Here are mine... same day... where I met bmwerkes.

Can see a tiny bit of rear wheel lift.

Looks like that cone is done for!

Nope, guess not!

It was great fun out there with bmwerkes, he smoked me good though

Good job bmwerkes!

I like the start/finish sensors built into the yellow milk crates. Makes them way more visible...

Yeah, one of the by products of running in the stock category, i even have a H&R swaybar (full stiffness) in the front!

I'm also running in D-Stock, using the H&R on full soft. What is the reasoning behind for running full stiff, compared to full soft. Do you experience more understeer, with full stiff? Thanks.

Just bite the bullet and move up to DSP.. the car can be very competitive in DSP with a few mods.. just look at what won the national pro solo event down at fed ex field..

True, but im thinking of a 330ci M 6spd which should still be d-stock and give me an advantage of an extra 60hp and 45 ft/lbs of torque. Then i might move up to D-Sp.

Here are some pics from my latest autocross here near Chicagoland.

The first pic is me washing my windshield. Need a clear view for cone dodging. The red E30 is owned by a marine and it's been all over the world, so I'm told. His son Darien is the one driving. It's got 430,000 miles on it! Original engine and tranny! He replaced the stock clutch at 392,000!

If you look closely on the silver E46 you'll see the front reflector is missing. He hit a cone so hard he broke it off!

The red E36 M3 is pretty bad assed too. He's got a carbon fiber hood with a huge skull and cross bones decal on it. Fast as hell.

Oh, and there was some stupid italian car there too.
