2008 E92 M3 DCT
Track/course: Barber Motorsports Park, Birmingham, AL
Best Lap Time: 1:42.20
Brakes: StopTech 380/355 - Pagid RS29s
Tires: BFG R1Ss - 265/35/18 square on Apex Arc-8 10"
Suspension: Stock EDC w/ GC camber plates -2.6F/-2.0R
Other mods: BPM tune, performance spoiler, filter

It was a fun weekend Chin event at Barber. I was trying out a new set of BFG R1Ss for the first time. Tires did great despite hot track temps. Had a lot of fun in this session chasing down the "rabbit", a modded 996 TT, for many laps. He had larger turbos and intercoolers, r-comps, and AWD, but was a little heavy (cab). He would obviously pull on me on the straights, but I could consistently outbreak him and hold my own in the twisties. I actually dropped my best lap time by over 3.5 sec (!). The last lap was the best at 1:42.20. ...Must have been the tires . Overall a great weekend.
