I can't wait until Friday, I hope that the car will do better than the 13.17. Do you think that the tires are wide enough for the HP the car makes. I was thinking of 255/40/17 rear and 245/45/17 front or Larry you could sell me you D force wheels. | | | 05-28-2008, 11:51 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Stamford, CT <-> Boston, MA Posts: 1,393 | I'm going to try to get there. What time are you guys showing up? I'll try to squeeze as much work in and try to miss traffic at the same time. I'll have the camera & tripod in hand. Also where do you guys hang out when I get there? I'll try to find you guys. -Nick __________________ BMWCCA #403399 2012 Mini Cooper S Clubman, 6-Speed Loaded 2001 325xi, Winter Package, 5-Speed Traded 1998 318ti, Active, Automatic, TOTAL LOSS R.I.P. 10/20/08 Bilstein Sport Shocks/Struts .

You will see all the bimmers in the gravel pit area. Look for red ti, white 135i, blue sc e46 sedan first then white and black ti. Most people will be there after 6pm other than the die hard racers. Track opens at 5pm and line up for tech inspection if racing. jon fill the tank today or early tomorrow. I better get a ride in it this time!!! 1.5 hour ride is the usual trip from Boston. Just checked the forums and there'll be at least 15 BMWs going up. Don't forget we need to take some 318ti group pictures. | | | 05-31-2008, 06:38 AM | #10 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Stamford, CT <-> Boston, MA Posts: 1,393 | Wish all my pictures came out this crisp Anyways there will be some more tomorrow. I'm going to bed.

Had a great time meeting/hanging with you guys, and too bad about Dan's diff. Using Mickey Thompson racing slicks was really straining that diff, which we all know is a weak point on these swap cars. Time for a beefy one! Dan, I do have my 3.45 open diff w/half shafts that is usable for now, if you want 'em. __________________ 1997 332ti - Don't even ask. 2006 330i - ZPP/ZSP/ZCW/6sp/Nav/BT/H&R Sport 2011 E92 M3 | | | 05-31-2008, 07:47 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Stamford, CT <-> Boston, MA Posts: 1,393 | __________________ BMWCCA #403399 2012 Mini Cooper S Clubman, 6-Speed Loaded 2001 325xi, Winter Package, 5-Speed Traded 1998 318ti, Active, Automatic, TOTAL LOSS R.I.P. 10/20/08 Bilstein Sport Shocks/Struts .

Yeah, they could be better (shadows/tripod/angles etc...) but it was like 1 AM and I was tired. jonchino's nitrous purge btw. __________________ BMWCCA #403399 2012 Mini Cooper S Clubman, 6-Speed Loaded 2001 325xi, Winter Package, 5-Speed Traded 1998 318ti, Active, Automatic, TOTAL LOSS R.I.P. 10/20/08 Bilstein Sport Shocks/Struts .
