    The only thing I would change would be M roady gills and swapping the CW's with some BBS rims.

    My buddy would dig to check out your car sometime. It would be a great example of what to strive for. Do you ever frequent any of the GTG's, CCA stuff, or track days?
    We'll have to chat the spring about your brothers car. Whats the color combo? The LS1 caar is sweet, but I'd prefer the S54...

    I've only been to one autocross since I've moved to Colorado, just been too busy! Hoping I might get a few more events in next summer. Shoot me a PM if you guys want to check out the S52.

      Love that LS1 car. It's a very well done swap. :D

      Who did your headwork? or did you do it yourself? I'm in need of some minor top end work, and would like a professional opinion on it before I start dissecting it and spending money.

          Why's the m3 have Alberta plates?

                  Might have to do a cruise before the snow flies...If its not too late already! Both my E30s get parked for the winter, which is probably any time now. Might have to do one last run up lookout mountain...

                    you just might. And you just might have to let me take your M3. Or your S52 M3. A warning: If you let me drive your S52 E30, afterward I will be rabidly chasing down the nearest S52 I can find like a feral dog, likely carelessly blowing all of my money that I should be using for living expenses, and miss classes and suffer declining grades staying up late doing the swap into my 318is.

                      I would join you but I just put snow tires on my E30, not really good at turning :)

                      I could always be a passenger!

                        If you guys go up Lookout I'll join in either BMW. Or I'll take the truck up and race you down in my hang glider!

                          yeah let me know, we should get a drive organized. I am down, although I swapped my Koseis+street tires for stock B-caps and studded snows already. Well I can be the guy that brings the tow strap..... ;)

                              That sounds awesome! I would totally run down the trail but I really don't think that stands a chance against a bike. MMMM GCB.....

                                We need someone to video tape this, and then sell it as a reality TV show... we could make MILLIONS. :D
