[maxfield]

Jamie, i saw you trying to serve your dad... you bouncing up and down (for more traction?!!!) was feckin hillarious!

Aerodynamics.

[Simon13]

Thats pretty quick James, well done. Was that the M50 turbo?

On a seperate note, who owened the grey 2dr 325i turbo which came on the drift circuit did a few laps and promptly blew the headgasket? Sounded great for the (short) while it lasted!

it took him to the end of 3rd gear to out drag the pina up the strip!

[Omi]

E30 M52B28 - 14.82" @ 95.85mph

Well chuffed.

[zaust]

[d6dph]

That was a complete washout tbh. Most disappointing.

why? whats the story? to many no shows?

[d6dph]

Exactly that.

I think there were less than 10 people that actually handed timing slips in across all categories.

[bss325i]

There was a red Touring that was really quick! Was that you Barry?

Yes i put in 15 runs in my touring but there was another red touring but with an S38, tech 2 kit and split rims.

Does anyone know if it went up the strip and is so what times that it did?

[Jhonno]

it did yes.. I missed the times though sadly..

I think that one was in the low 13's from memory.

Do Nelly and I get 1 for the 2 quickest tech 1 touring's in the world...? lol

I'm sure i saw low 13's out of it too. I've been out in that thing it's rapid

[Cotty]

I put my times in but didnt hand in a timing slip. I came second in my class though so no need or evidence of my failure

[Jhonno]

I was in class with James' Touring.. Nuff said..

[Cotty]

Was I the only auto running ?

[Wilson325i]

oh well i missed another good day

[M5pilot]

S38 Touring - I saw mid 13's from memory. That thing was quick!

I didn't realise it was Karan's dad in the 535d. That thing did reall well.

Did anyone see the Black E90 335d? That was doing 13.2 and beating all of the E46 M3's.

Guess which company mapped that

[Mtech327]

16.1 @ 86 mph From memory as I forgot to collect my slip

Had a laugh though. Got refused to run twice for dripping fluids. I need to practice my "launches"

I ran a 16.032 @ 88mph.

I to had problems off the line with too much wheelspin. I also had to change into 4th before the finish line as I don't rev mine over 6000rpm which hurt my time .

It was a great day and it was good to see your car again Oakey

I'm in Orpington most weekens and thurdays, I'll keep an eye out for you.

Alpina vs Hartge?

Love the touring by the way

Cumon guys! Your letting the 2.7 side down. Even a standard 325i sport that was there running our chip done it in 15.3 seconds!

Worse still.....our oil burner did it faster in 15.85!

No offense intended of course....get some launch practice in and you'll be doing high 14's.

[ric325i]

Nice times gents nice to see a 335i up in the top section of the times

i wish i was there, the funny thing was i actually had it all running on sunday. me and jaffro were driving it around my flat, well around the building

SO close. maybe i will race a few of you next year

I know, I know. I was running P6000's aswell which didnt help.
I think I was revving the thing too much also (taking it to 6.9K in 1st and 2nd crossing the line in 3rd). I reckon my power is dropping off much sooner than I thought. My first time on the strip though.
My friend's mildly tuned 1275 mini does 1/4mile in 17 secs and his brother's 1275 mini has run a 15.2 I was embarrassed telling them my times
Anyway...... enough excuses from me.

I'll be coming to your dyno Sal with Ant to get it properly set up and then I'll go back for a run what you brung day with some cut slicks

I have been advised that Mickey Thompson et street radial tyres are the way to go.

Pretty cool..

Looking at that I should def have been in the mid 14's

I want to go again

[zaust]

I ran slower than last year, by half a second.

[Jon_Bmw]

Anyone else notice the fastest 4 pot car beat the 6 and 8 cylinder cars

[maxfield]

Slowest time of the day

[DanThe]

Anyone else notice the fastest 4 pot car beat the 6 and 8 cylinder cars

And I suppose it was an iS...

[fuzzy]

Anyone else notice the fastest 4 pot car beat the 6 and 8 cylinder cars

only because the driver of the 6 pot had the reactions of a grandad on sleeping pills with reaction times nearly 5 times slower

[DanThe]

6 pot driver must have had some tools in the boot

[maxfield]

Good excuse that ^

I'll use that for my slow time
