    First SCCA Race at NJMP

    Come out and race with me at NJMP July 19-20. I will be running the new #89 bimmerparts.com 325is in ITS and would love some other E30's to show. This should be a great event, the track is supposed to be awesome, party on Saturday night, free t-shirt and trophies. You can register at DLBracing.com I can help you get in touch with the right people to get your license setup.

    We are trying to get as many entries as we can for this race, a good turnout is important for the region. We have a rental bmw 87 325is(spec e30 prep level) available for the weekend. Special rate applies for this weekend only, arrive and drive. email with questions.

    Get some on-track video for us. I am looking forward to seeing that track in use. It is a bit far for me to come out and watch though... :D

      I'll get some videos 2 days from now during the EMRA Time Trials :) First competitive event on the track... Hell yeah!

      The banking in the lightbulb looks sweet. I just got done with 2 Pocono events in the past 2 months, this will be a VERY nice change. No elevation changes, rough pavement, and no technicality FTL.

          Cool, will do. Will you be driving a spece30 set up car? I'm really curious how my car compares to one. What run group will you be in?

              ahhh, ok. I'll stick around to watch, and possibly flag.

                holy. shit.

                This track is seriously fucking awesome.

                I'll have over an hour of video uploaded tomorrow. Including my 4 wheel agricultural excursion.

                There is sooooo much speed available. I wish I would have went to the T&T Friday to learn what I learned today, so I could drop 1-2 seconds in the TT.

                I ended up first in ST3 with a 1:21.15. FTD was a 1:14 set by Ziggy (driving a notoriously fast, fully built C5).

                Therefore I have the track record for ST3 :)

                  How did you do in the enduro? We were doing TT trophies while you guys were running, I basically missed the whole thing. There were a TON of cars though, looked like a blast!

                    Andrew, did that motor I sell you turn out to be OK?

                      i havent actually used it yet, we are keeping it as a spare for now. The enduro was frustrating with the black flags and the car is just not right. I am down at least 20-25hp which leaves me in the back of the pack. We are trying to figure out what the problem is and still working on it.
