Nothing is scheduled yet. I am proposing not this Wednesday but the next - Jan 23rd. This way maybe more people would come. I would also try to get few more Audis etc.

I'm not sure I see the point of racing a stock M3. I would think a catless M3 with a tune, drop-in filter, and lighter wheels would be a better comparison. I own both cars, the M3 shown below and Stage 1 B8 S4 with GIAC tune, AWE Exhaust, and AWE intake. The S4 is faster, but the M3 is a much, much better car in all other aspects.

LOL does not sound fun at all. So 1990's. If I had my old S2000 or boosted integra I would run a Volkswagon all day long and did for years. Total yawn now. Not a good race at all.

Lightly tuned or stock is what I was hoping for. The point as I said is to see for myself is that really the case.

As far as which car is better ... to each their own. Love both cars ...

There is a private event at PBIR tomorrow with a great line up. You should stop by. Our crew is bringing 2- M3's and an ISf if you can get in . http://www.streetcardrags.com/drag-s...ary-27th-2013/

Registration is full but, maybe you can get to run at the gate.

I seem to be a little late for this particular meetup, in the future I would be interested if something like this would be repeated... if i'm in the country i'll make it there. Besides, new the M and the area wouldn't mind meeting up with some fellow enthusiasts

Had a blast at PBIR today. Ran Mike33176 about 5-6 times LOL

Best time was 12.772 @ 110.94 .031 R/T

Bone stock except for the Active Autowerke software and lighter 19" Strasse Forged R10s than the factory wheels.

Took me a while to launch it right as the car is still brand new but I got it! Thanks for the coaching lesson Mike!
