Saw the booking on the 28th of March (?) - I would be interested.

You should bring the 1M out mate.

We just got back from time attack. The M3 loves it, lap times have been very consistent and we're almost consistently breaking 59 on the sprint circuit. Car hasn't missed a beat and it seems like the harder we push it, the better it responds. The Nitto NT01 slicks and hawk brakes have been incredible and still have many track days left, running the nitto’s at 38psi hot seems like the sweet spot and they are getting better the more they wear down. The new supercharger kit should put down a few more ponies, hoping to see some 0:56 or perhaps faster in the new year. Not bad for a car you can drive to work in!!

I should be going to the one in January - still looking at tires option. I am not sure if I would have my suspension in by then.

Saw your car on the BMW Australia FB page. Congrats, looks awesome.

Did you have any photos of the Beemers from the day @ QR? I have not seen them up anywhere.

Thanks Duane, yeah it was a good response to the photo.
There are shot of the M3's in the album http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...7125723&type=1 on my FB page
Will be more of yours too, there were over 1000 photos on the day and we are still going thru them.
In the meantime......
