We have been in that position before with an unlimited car but really your racing agains very few people or any. We could run the DCT trans but there is a weight penalty for that Haha yea we could but actually the owner of VS Motorsports races the car. To make weight we have 25lb lead bricks we place in the car. Thanks! |

Not much of an update yet but the steering wheel, hub, and quick disconnect is all in.
Hopefully we will have the car back in about a week. Good news is it looks like the SCCA is going to approve some modifications on this car. Hopefully springs,sway bars, front&rear brakes, and less weight |

We have been working hard to get a group of cars done for this weeks Nasa event, so we have not had as much time to work on our car. One of the things you will notice is our color choices for the E92 cage and panels. We always try to stay true to the BMW brand, so our color choice for the cage is interlagos blue. Our trunk block off and beauty panels are painted frozen black. Our goal is to have this car completed by this Thursday to start our testing. We will try hard to keep this thread updated. Thank you for your patience.

So jealous, that is an awesome looking car. I'm surprised you were able to get it so light while not trying too hard since class rules have a min. weight anyway. Maybe one day...
