M3 at Roebling

blankstar43 · 02-17-2013, 05:45 PM

Spent the weekend at Roebling Road Raceway and had a few pictures taken and thought I'd share. It was a pretty fun weekend but was a bit cold the second day and rained part of the first day.

Nice pics

The light is superb in latter pics.

I really love Jerez Black

(had a very similar colour on my E46

)

It was my second time out actually (both have been at Roebling).

It was with one of PCA groups so the event was dominated by Porsches obviously, though there were a few BMWs and other models mixed in here and there but sadly no other e9x M3's.

It did rain the first day for about 4 hours which was a bit bittersweet in the fact that I couldn't push the car quite as hard, but I got to get some experience in that kind of a situation which I needed at some point. The car ran really well both days and I didn't have any issues. I only got to throw in my PerformanceBox for the last session of the second day and my best lap was a 1:28.5 despite not getting a clean lap (kept running up on people

) which I am pretty happy with considering my experience.

I also came to the conclusion that I need to get a pair of gloves I can wear while I drive in the winter months b/c my hands nearly froze off during a couple morning sessions lol

Overall it was a really fun weekend and I'll be heading back there for one of the upcoming Seat Time events in the next 2 months

pretty much.. Only thing not stock is the Akra slip on and painted reflectors

rich22 · 02-20-2013, 09:39 AM

Sorry, I was trying to get out of your way!!! Poor old 944 on street tires could only do so much... you were running some laps much faster than 1:28, did they let you solo at all?

Haha no worries, you were good about giving point by.. there were a couple other newer Porsches that were a bit late (or didn't) giving them though.

I'll have to get the PerformanceBox in for some more sessions next time. Unfortunately I didn't get to go solo, but my instructor did sign me off as ready to be evaluated for solo. So hopefully next time I go I can get approved for solo (assuming I don't mess up lol)

I can't wait for you to take delivery of your M3 though, it'll be nice to have another one running around with me out there
