As promised, here's some video I got last weekend loving on my car..

Couple things, 1. This is only my second track event, and the first time I ever used a GoPro... 2. It's only the south course at VIR, but it was great practice for when I go back for the full course the first weekend of Oct.

Don't judge me! Lol..

Taking your manual M3 out to the track:thumbsup: No one is going to judge you. Enjoy it!!

I judge you...SMOOTH! The first and absolutely required step to FAST. Looks like a ton of fun.

Lol, I like you! Yeah, smooth is key, I know fast will come. Every time I went out I got a little faster. One of the friends I made at the track timed most of my laps for me and he noted a 15 second improvement from my first lap and the last one he was there for. By early afternoon on Sunday there was only one person in my run group I couldn't pass. So much fun, can't wait for Road Atlanta in a few weeks!!

Road Atlanta is my wife's favorite track you are going to love it once you accept that the road will be there when you make the crest over the last hill and wait before putting in the turn right inputs.

My wife also learns in a similar manner. Smooth and patient until she learns the track. Then by afternoon she and her E36 would go hunting. Passing much "faster" cars left and right.

Just rolled over 144k and one of my TA's decided to go up, replacing it tonight. Hopefully all goes well.

First set? If so, it had a good run!

Track day with my son in his E46 M3. His girlfriend and my two oldest daughters joined us and did some ride alongs. It was a glorious day.

Nice! She sounds like a keeper She has good taste in cars too.

I am for sure looking forward to RA, I've heard it's a fun track. A ton of people have given me fair warning about the part that sort of drops off lol... sounds exciting!

Got Sirius coded by Bimmertech.

Drove to Canepa Cars and Coffee.

What a lovely day 4M!

Drove 250 miles in the past two days since I picked it up. Finding every excuse to go out and drive! have gone thru two tanks of gas...lol

Took me a few days, but finally finished the following:

- Autosolutions SSK install
- Ultimate Clutch Pedal install
- finally ditched orange reflectors for painted ones

I think like 15-17 or something haha. Still got 1/3 tank left in the second tank.

Just such a dream come true. Drove my old diesel truck to In N Out just now...I shit you not it felt like I was piloting a John Deere tractor.

Had a photo shoot!

Drove to work.

Bought a front BBK!

had the bimmerworld resonated x-pipe installed today. i previously had test pipes with the OEM x-pipe. sound has improved with a higher pitched tone and less rasp (previous setup was too unrefined flowmaster-esque). butt dyno says there's a nice improvement due to relocation of the "x". it feels about the equivalent to running 2 gallons of e85 on top of 91 octane on my 625 kit (~15-20whp). i plan on going back to the dyno to measure the actual gains.

Tightened down the car cover in preparation for a windy night! haha

Nice! Whatcha get????

Started going through this thread from the beginning for the first time but gave up on page 12. It was so time consuming and irritating to see people replying to "what have you done to your M3 today" with:

- Looked at it....
- Sat in it....
- Missed it...
- Washed it...
- Vacuumed it...
- Put gas in it...
- Parked it in a parking space...
- Drove it...
- Put air in the tires...
- Cried over it...
- Hugged it...
- Ate in it...



At most probably only half of the 181 pages have useful stuff.
