[Pedro]

dang my crappy looking car didn't make it in any of your pics. I think I see my EZ-UP though! Had a blast!

Sorry I didnt get any pics of your. I took all of those pics at lunch time on Sunday and I ended up talking to a few people for so long they started to call everyone to go back out on the track so I missed a bunch of other cars. Which car was it?

Awesome pics!! So many cars and people we've seen over the years.

There was a father and son with E30 318is/325is, both cars are white. Happen to get any pics of those?

Unfortunatly I dont think i did.

please tell me that you rode in the uber waggon. if not then weak sause :)

No i didnt but i talked to the guy and he says he all the parts finally to repair the whole car.

Glad you got some pictures of my brother's "Der Panzer" hahaha, I was there for Saturday hanging out with the Bimmerworld guys watching my brother race, he was really tearing up the newbie class, or whatever D is. Bassen's car is ungodly loud though, you would hear it on the other side of the track louder than the cars 100 ft away on the straight. Good event though and a lot of cool cars there. That touring was purple-ish though right? Maybe I remember it wrong but the pics make it look blue.

The touring was more purple its my camera that makes it look blue.

Yeah i met your brother and talked with him and got a ride with James Clay in the white 325 with the blue hood. Did he get his front lip?

Did his lip fall off or something? I didn't know anything happened to it hahaha.

The classes are just based on experience as it was a driving school event, D through A for drivers and I for instructors. So really almost any cars are in each class. There were a lot of M3's, that supra, rx7, EVO, STI wagen, and a couple E30's in D level.

Gotcha. Threw me off when you said "racing." HPDE isn't quite racing.

If i remember right he said he used the wrong line and went in to roller coaster to hot and went off the track and it came off.

[E30Kaiser]

Just called his girlfriend and apparently the lip is no more. IE shattered into a million pieces.

[Pedro]

oh shit that sucks, well at least i snapped a few pics with it on. Someone needs to buy that car, it was pretty quick around the track.

[E30Kaiser]

Yeah, the instructors said he was one of the best or the best out there in D. Talked to him today though and he said he would just get a new one off ebay, this time with a splitter hahaha. Maybe that extra little bit of downforce will keep him on the track. Someone called up to Bimmerworld about his car and asking if it was for sale, so he may have a buyer soon, but he really doesn't want to get rid of it, he just had to for money reasons :(

[Pedro]

My co-worker got a ride with James too and after the ride he told me I'm getting a bmw and its probably going to be a e30. Today we are going to look at one that he might buy.

[E30Kaiser]

Thats awesome, I was to lazy to get a pass to go out with Jason Marks and now I regret it hahaha. Are you going to GT Live BTW? I would love to get some R3v guys to kart with there or something.

[Pedro]

I wish i could but I'll be in Atlanta that weekend. Thats the last race of our season.
