Lagos took some pics of my car for me. surprisingly i did not take one pic of my car the whole day!

i did pretty bad the first run but i got better over my next 3

1st-97
2nd-81
3rd-77
4th-74

when i found out that i had gotten a faster time than a 99 M3 i flipped!

i have alot of video footage of my car though so i will try and get that up tonight

The little 5s did well! Thanks for the ride!
Id look into suspension next, as the car had quite a bit of body roll, but other then that, I thought it did really well.

suspension is a must. I am thinking of staying in BSP and trying to work my way up in the class

Do you go to autox events on a regular basis? I wanted to get into it for a long time but I can never find the time... something always comes up, just like on Sunday.

BTW, did Art race too?

This was Tigas first time driving, and my first time spectating. They are going to have another event at that same location in about 3 weeks and I will probably race in that one. Im just worried, cause I think my car would get placed in the street modified category, were basically anything goes .

Yeah but you got a fast car, so I think you can definitely handle street modified.

Any idea what category I'd be in with only suspension mods?

here are my times as compared to the BSP group. i want compared with them but with the Novice group seeing as how it was my first time

1T BSP 13 Bob Gill 1997 BMW M3 coupe TechnoViolet 63.701 62.510 62.273 61.595+OFF


2T BSP 43 Joe Caffey 1987 Mazda RX7 Black 67.579+1 65.667+1 67.144


3 BSP 14 Chris Volpe 1995 BMW M3 Black 74.350 71.303 70.155+1 71.005+OFF


4 BSP 54 Vytenis Bichnevicius 1987 Porshe 911 76.799 74.246 73.346 73.561

17 BSP 610 Mike Thoma 1995 Toyota Celica GT Blue 94.083 81.265 77.271 74.743+1



one cone set my last time up 2 seconds so the raw would be 72.743

if i fine tune my driving and run consistently i could do pretty well against these guys
