But then i do have quite a big set of brakes on the car so...

Re: BMW Kumho
Yeah last year we had up to 8 or 9 if everybody turned up.
This year max we will get is 5 but more like 3-4 regular.
Lot of people up graded to E36 just cheaper to keep racing. (but not as good lol)

Re: Anyone built there own cage?
Not a chance I would get in a car with a DIY cage no matter how good the builder say's it is.
Just my personal opinion.
Seen to many crashs that don't look to bad racing, which could have easliy happened on a trackday where a good cage made all the diference.
