Willow on 2-7

[Palantirion]

A couple other Z owners are going to Big Willow on 2-7 with Speed Ventures (http://www.speedventures.com). Would be cool to see some other BMWs there too.

-Do both :p

I won't have tires in time, but I may show up and say hey. I live pretty close to the track, so if you need any tools or assistance I should be able to assist.

-Cool, always good to have more friends around the track. We should be set for tools, but thanks for the offer. PM me as we get closer and I'll give you my cell # in case you want to stop by.

Sounds good.

It's funny I was just talking with a cowoker about track days after I posted this and he was mentioning going out this weekend and how there was this event and another on the streets also. I really need to get some tires already :o

[Palantirion]

I should point out that aside from the events at Streets and the big track there will also be a drifting event going on at the Budweiser Balcony. It's always fun to go up and watch when you're not on track.

Will try to make it out there that weekend but may only have time to do Sunday's event.

So how was the event in the rain?

Get to test some car control drifting through turn 8 and 9?

-The event was great. I'm still working on pics. Saw a couple other MFesters there (M3 owners) but didn't get a chance to talk to them in the pits due to the schedule and my needing to take pics when not on track.

Nice...Can't wait for the pics:goldcup:-The event was great. I'm still working on pics. Saw a couple other MFesters there (M3 owners) but didn't get a chance to talk to them in the pits due to the schedule and my needing to take pics when not on track.

[Palantirion]

I have finished processing/sorting my pics. As soon as I have time I'll write a thread. There are 174 pics I intend to post, so it will take a little while. In the mean time here are two, taken at the same time, looking in two different directions.

Palantirion,
I just wanted to say thank you for all the advise before and during the track day. All the pieces came together once on the track. I was very happy to come home with the shinny side still shinny. Kudo's guy. :rolleyes: :D

If anyone has never done a track day, you should !!!! There are just some things you can't learn in a book or from talking to other people. If you have a chance, do it in the rain. :D This was the most fun I have had in a long time with my clothes on. I know, I know, TMI. :rolleyes: :D

[Laidback]

That's funny:laughhard:
