Well if 8k3 is going to be stingy and make excuses (jk

), I'll be going to the track next weekend and rides are always plentiful there. I've taken a few people up as spectators, and most of them have since come back as participants.

BrewRifle · 02-22-2014, 01:58 PM

Two blown cars are coming tomorrow? I might have to take you up on the track event next weekend.

NoynuR · 02-22-2014, 02:14 PM

i would love to ride as a spectator, or take a ride in a blown m3. Im patiently waiting for a nice used intercooled ess kit to go on sale on the forums so i can snatch it up and supercharge my M finally L

been craving the extra power for a long time now

NoynuR · 02-22-2014, 02:15 PM

I'll bring my wife's blow dryer and stick it in the engine bay somewhere to join the blown club for today's event.

All I'll need now is some recordings of different BOV's on a single track and loop it.

When you get those recordings done, send them over to BMW to help them out with their Active Sound effort.

jphughan · 02-23-2014, 09:15 AM

Well it was great seeing everybody! If anybody ever wants to revisit the route we took, here it is: https://goo.gl/maps/zonQR. I thought it would make a good mix of higher speed areas (mostly for the SC'd cars

) and tighter twisty roads to enjoy some cornering. We ran into traffic a couple times in areas where passing wasn't really feasible, but for the most part we had the roads to ourselves. Let's not wait this long to do it again!

BrewRifle · 02-23-2014, 02:18 PM

Great meet and ride today, folks. Looking forward to the next event! What is the facebook page with the other Austin BMW stuff going on?

There's one called Roundel Gruppe, and then a non-denominational Octane Society.

whats77inaname · 02-23-2014, 06:16 PM

Had an excellent time seeing old faces and meeting new ones

Really enjoyed that split second of weightlessness, too *lol*.

surlynkid · 02-23-2014, 07:50 PM

Should do a meetup at COTA on March 22.

jchristianp · 02-23-2014, 07:58 PM

I had a nice time meeting everyone and seeing the work you all have put into your cars.

Sorry for any drool that hit the inside of the blown engine bays. Next time both myself and the baby will wear bibs.

8k3 · 02-23-2014, 09:09 PM

Had a great time as well, nice seeing you all. The drive was awesome
