      mine? a 2.5 ton 300hp caddy without the factory recaros would be an attempt to follow my family's tradition of "Worst time of the day" trophies. My dad got his in '68 in a Chevelle SS, I think that I'd have a good shot at it.

            im a total newb to track days, but im planning on getting my racing license this year and am building a dedicated track car
            Might I suggest that you try a few track days first, and see where that takes you?

            It's a tried- and- true method of figuring out what can be a very expensive and frustrating addiction....

            ...and a street car's a good place to start, THEN figure out what you want in a dedicated car.

              thanks for the recommendation Toby, but Im already in full swing of building the car. I knew my budget wasnt in the Pro3 level, so Ive been building the rabbit to ICSCC's Club Rabbit (CR) specs. I had the motor, I had a shell, it made sense. I know what my budget for racing is, and it certainly isnt anywhere that can justify building an E30 for track only duties.

                Our next event is June 22.That's the friday before the E30 picnic,so if your coming up early anyway,why not bring your helmet and play?

                Even if you cant run Friday,you are always welcome to come to watch and just hang out with a bunch of BMW owners at the track.

                  It's all day friday though, not after hours for us 9-5 types, right?

                      Haha, it's an unfortunate setup, I know. I'm just glad that the Porsche Club does their CCC on weekends.

                            First of all,Welcome to the BMW CCA!
                            When Dana and I joined we had never owned a BMW, we ran a Acura RSX (fail) then a Shelby GT (bigger fail!)for the first couple of years before we bought our 1st e30.We just fell in with the wrong crowd and now we're addicted to this stuff ! :D

                            Bring the Merc! Our next CCC is in September( the P-club has one coming up sooner) and our next HPDE is at the Ridge in August!

                              Bring it out! You'll only get to know a car like that by bringing it to the track.

                                Our August 24th event at the Ridge Motorsports Park was alot of fun(and alot of work for me,with 2 e30's)I highly reccomend driving this fantastic new track!

                                The next event is at Pacific Raceways on Sept.14.The CCC is full,but there are spots open for the HPDE.

                                As always,spectators are welcome,admission is free,just check in when you arrive.Be sure to stop in at our paddock space and say hi.
