    edit: Just looked it up. Is citytech having their own private run group on Sunday? Do you know if there are any other E30s going?

        Darn, I like chasing other E30s!

        Having trouble finding the link for registration on the city tech website. Can you PM me the info? Curious about how much it is and if we can take passengers, might want to bring a friend.

              1:33 at Streets on Saturday. I feel as though my azenis were holding me back. hot temps caused some plowing around certain off-camber turns.

                Sweet time! Ditch the Azenis and pick up some RS3s or Rivals if you want to stick with street tires. Post some vids!

                    I'm sure Tanner can easily do sub 1:30s! – I think his car has weight reduction/no interior?

                    I sold the TRMs already to a dude with a 318 that is going to start tracking! I'm sticking with 15s for now, just clearing out some space and saving for something special for my E30. Kev when are you gonna track again? It's been very hot lately

                      Not sure, was thinking Fontana this coming up weekend I believe, but still need brakes and tires. So that's proabably going to be a no go

                            Yes, send me any videos you have! I've been trying to find E30s at buttonwillow or thill with 24v swaps, but all of the videos are "first time on track, had issues" blahblahblah. Just want to get an idea of lap times. I know the JMP S52 E30 is running sub 2 at buttonwillow because racecar

                            Wanganstyle is your 9/14 race lemons or is this a NASA race?
