Eric, do you have any good steering racks laying around?

[lambo]

holy balls that wing is huge...

[Eric]

Eric stop making us all so ridiculously jealous.

have you seen Hansel's super clean E30? Man, I wish my car was more like his! Everything is just simple and done right.

Sorry man, I don't have any extra racks. Maybe Chris has a Z3 rack at SCR?

Told you! I'm not really a fan of the upright shapes, so I'll probably take it all apart again and modify it a bit.

I got solid quarter panel video of session 2 and 3 (unfortunately 4 was my best session :( ) Looks pretty sweet, with the close to the ground view and the wheel.

I have in windshield from the other camera of session 1 (which has the spin - alot less dramatic on camera than it was in person!)

What do you use to edit videos? Mine are like 25+ minutes long each session so kinda big to post?

[Eric]

I just use iMovie that came on my macbook. I've never been good at video editing, and this program is a breeze to use!

Here is what I got of your spin!

[iamsam]

i want to get back on the track soooo bad, but alas, time and money...

[bcausey]

Nice videos - e28 m5 is one of my favorites, and track video - is it friday and someone forgot to tell me? Keep it coming...

[conway]

blefevre,
I have a rack I sent you a PM.

What's up guys. Just checking in. Between Europe and an HG comp last week I've been busy as Fuck. Roland, I haven't forgot our excursion. The tailwheel has been flat for the past couple weeks, but as soon at that is sorted we will get airborne.

Yesterday, I flew from Eagle to Vail over the Gore Range to Silverthorne to Lake Dillon to Breck landed at Copper. Max altitude over the Gore was 17,280 feet. Had a hypoxia headache all night. Aspens were amazing. Here's a teaser of going sideways over Copper.



My buddy got an '04 M3 last month. Spend a solid 2 days rebuilding his shifter linkage, all fluid changes, and lots of interior work. Going to try to get it sorted for HPR on 10-21. Anyone interested in joining for an open lapping day?

Brad hit me up if you need someone to install your rack. We can work something out.

Not a problem at all, just shoot me a text whenever you're good to go.

Sweeeeeet.

Nice! What color?

I'd love to come to the track, but fixing the M5 is priority #1.

Why is the M20 oil pan wrapped around the front subframe? :hitler::hitler:

Because BMW engineers hadn't figured out how to make cars serviceable yet.

They did figure that out on the E36, but spent too much time making them easy to work on so things break a lot more often.

Yep. It is the one downside of having a garage. The power steering, oil, and transmission leaks are starting to annoy me. At least the brake fluid and coolant stays in there now, that's a start.

So, in other words, net win?

[blefevre]

Almost. I still have work to do on the garage. No old vintage garage stereo makes it sad. Also, depending on the car I can actually fit three cars in it so that's a bonus.
