Dear all,

I've been speaking to Louise @ PBMW about an e30zone thrash for all highly modded e30's. It seems that the magazine is very keen to promote the performance side of BMW tuning and having so many excellect modified cars on the zone it would make sense to have a ZONE thrash.

If anyone is interested in this please post up or send me a pm and I'll sort out contact with them for you, I do not want to get into orgainising it myself but I will happily start the whole thing off.

I doubt we will ALL get into this but please submit your spec lists etc so they can sort out whom they would like to feature.

If you have any questions please ask away.

Mark.

Agreed, it must be a weekend really, some people will have a fair few miles to travel. I'd like to think we can maybe have a decent meet too, really promote the E30ZONE COMMUNITY and some fast cars aswell :D

I'm up for this. You lot dont stand a chance. My 3,000 bhp 1.1 litre Polo engine should be in the car by then so i'll come round and whoop the lot of ya :D

I'm suprised anyone is up for this after what happened to the M Turbo at the last thrash. Anyway like i told Dips, i will bring the Rieger round and it can be driven around the truck on the back of a trailer winkeye :wink: :D

Hmm, thought the one I bought off Jimbob was "modified" but its not a patch on your lot ! However I'd happily bring it along to make up the numbers, might need Jimbob along too to answer the tricky questions tho... its a 318iS with modified 2.7 200bhp conversion + full HR&R Cup kit inc ARBs..
Happy to come and watch if it/I doesn't "qualify"as modified enough...

Lennie,

The brief as I understand it was for "highly modded" e30's with a F/I trend, so I guess your and Dips SC'd e30's are gonna be a def mate.

Ants, Jons, Alexs, Deans, yours, dips, grahams and Wills (when he builds it) are what they are really after.

I'll join you in the "no pics of my car" stand as mines not what I would call tidy :D

Just looking forward to meeting you all in one place with loads of tires and a few gallons of race fuel :twisted:

If I can get brown up and running again I'd be up for it!

What's the score with these events? Is it at a track or something? :)

Any idea when it'd be too?

Kinda, I "think" for the start they are after F/I, but I'm sure and will push for as many cars as poss, obviously the more modded the higher up the list they will be.

Can't think anyone else has nitrous tho, so you may be in there mate!

Send me your external email add and I'll get Louise to contact you, best speak to them really, I'm just the messenger :D
