Project: Bandwidth Blower

[bmwm3n528]

Yea, this was the 3 day NASA event from this past weekend, great weekend with a huge turnout. I'm coming back for the Northern Ohio Mem. Day event, I'll be hanging out around garage one.

Joel, I haven't gotten around to putting the J stocks in yet. I need to get a few replacement parts for the dampers and just sort some other things out first. I'm gonna try to have them on by the Memorial day event, but that'll depend on business travel nonsense for this project I've got. Time has been kicking my ass this year.

What's wrong with dampers?

One was missing the strut collar, no biggie. He told me about it before I bought em. I just haven't gotten around to getting another.

Ah, had to make sure Alex wasn't being his scammer self.

Charlie - what diff are you running? 3.73?

Indeed. Those Cooper S and JCW cars were moving it pretty good. And the rain really didn't slow them down much, either.

Quit crying about brake pads, Heeter. :p

Yeah, no joke. The BRG Cooper S with the works package in my class was pretty quick in the wet, despite being driven by a guy who looked like he was a bit over 90.

As usual, good stuff Charlie. Interesting lines taken by that midget-thingy in front of you....some w-i-d-e cornering techniques. Momentum driving I suppose. And speaking of midget, what's that thing powered with anyway? From the sounds of how he revved the snot out of it I'd say its a bike engine.

Yeah, but you can see over counters. Or into the cookie jar on it.

Charlie needs a phonebook.

p.s. I have headroom like that too.
