Final Winter Auto-X Event 3/27

[Roland H]

Chris touched into the 34 second range. Ridiculous car really.

[stoliver54]

Nice times Ben!

I like your and Davids sponsors, I think I would be on your 'team': Don't break anything please, or snow, inc.

[Bishop]

Roland, I'm not too bummed out about being 7 seconds slower than the fastest raw time of the day.... Prepped and amazingly driven SM Evo vs. 1990 e30 (this was my second autocross in the car as well).

Thank Sean, once I figured out I could push the car much harder than I was in some corners it was already my last run. I barely used my brakes and Chris helped me pick the right line to carry as much momentum as possible. Wasn't perfect, but probably my favorite autocross yet, including the ones in the Subaru. The last run had only minor hiccups, it just felt really good

[Bishop]

Oh, and you're welcome to join the team, cause that's what I'm thinking to myself before each run lol.

[Bishop]

I triple post cause I care.....


I just checked the results and they're all jacked up. I knew they were having major issues with our run group.. My 3rd run time isn't even posted, and the guy who placed #1, I never saw him once, and the Volvo that got second was essentially kicked put cause his far was falling apart and dangerous

[iamsam]

So what's this I hear about sponsorships?

[Bishop]

Can I haz sponsorship please? New pads and tires

[LEANE30]

it was a fun time. my very first autox even. best time of 45.922 in the shitty black and rusty 91 318i, completely stock suspension.

got some videos, i'll need to post them up soon, still havent gotten them off my camcorder yet.



not bad for an m42 being only 11 something seconds behind some 500-600+ hp evo beast
& 41.55 bishop m20 with coilovers vs 45.922 m42 stock

That evo is on the stock turbo and is making 380ish at the wheels not 5-600. IIRC

No, evo's on newer turbo that spools 500-1000rpm lower, same whp. Thing is a beast.

LeanE30, glad to see you made it out! Come say hi to the r3v crew at the next one, and sign up for the driving school!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm no.... I could be wrong, and I'll ask Chris on Saturday, but I'm 95% sure it's stock turbo, just replaced with a new unit...

really? He posted a dyno of the new turbo......

[Bishop]

I remember him posting it, but don't remember what the #'s were.... My 5% margin is pretty big ;) are you guys back from Baker

[Bimmerman325i]

haha. I think the 380whp was that dyno....but it's been a while since I've seen it.

I've been back for a bit now, just chilling. Only had a 90 and a burger. Damn tasty.

[Bishop]

AIM you turd. 380 isn't outlandish for stock turbo on an Evo I'm pretty sure
