Haven't driven Chuckwalla CW in over two years, but finally went back over the weekend.
Tires were on their 3rd day and I struggled finding front grip all day. Best lap was my very first, but throughout the day I made changes and eventually went back to the morning setup and ran two more 1:54's. Not a very exciting lap. I found that keeping it in 4th gear for most of the lap was the fastest way around for me. 2008 E92 M3 6MT Weight: 3150 + me (150) Track/course: Chuckwalla CW Best Lap Time: 1:54.12 Brakes: StopTech ST40R front/rear Pads: SR34/SR33 front/rear Tires: Bridgestone RE71RS 295/30/18 square (3rd day, 20HC's) Suspension: MCS 3ways, SPL arms, BimmerWorld rear sphericals, solid subframe, stock sways Engine: Macht Schnell intake, pulleys, x-pipe, akra rear, Epic Tune, CSF cooling package Aero: BimmerWorld front lip & canards, BimmerWorld ultralight rear wing Drivetrain: Drexler LSD with 4.10 gears

So close to my goal of running a 1:49 on 200TW tires, NA and still in GTA Street Class trim. This would have been the lap if that E36 wasn't there, but unfortunately I just missed out by .08 seconds. Still making changes to the setup and dialing out understeer. Ran SIX 1:50 laps on Friday, so hopefully by January, I'll get there.

Best Lap Time: 58.52 Brake Pads: Ferodo 3.12 Tires (Size & Model): BFG R1S 285/30ZR18 square (yes, last leftover set dated 2019) Suspension: MCS 1-ways Other Mods: 2009 E92 M3 NA, Bimmerworld headers and race exhaust (corked up for LRP sound limit), Epic ECU & DCT tune, AutoSport Fabrication cage, Zebulon wing & splitter, Eibach adjustable front sway bar, OMP WRC seats, SPA fire suppression. Finally broke 1 minute last year with a 59.8 on new Hoosier R7s before adding the wing and splitter over the winter. I’m amazed at the difference the aero makes. It was hard work on the hairy edge for me to hit 59.8 without the aero. Now the car is stuck to the track and there’s still more to be had. |

Suspension: MCS 2-ways Other Mods: 2008 E92 M3 w/ 156k miles , Top Speed x pipe, Dinan ECU & DCT tune, CSF Rad, JPM Roll bar, Sparco PRO ADV, Lifeline Harnesses I sold my last E92 track car a few years ago and was tracking a 2005 Lotus Elise up until I blew the motor last year. I wanted another track car that ran similar times to my friend's S54 E36, so I found the cheapest E92 M3 I could in the country. The car seemed okay, but the tires are absolute garbage and would highly recommend against them. I really struggled with car temps at Road Atlanta this past weekend as it was in the 90's and I was overheating the car. I ordered the Do88 oil cooler and DCT cooler to hopefully remedy that. All things aside, I put down a 2:11 at ViR and a 1:42 at my first visit to Road Atlanta ever. |

The car didn't overheat at all and the transmission didn't hesitate like it normally does as it warms up. I was able to put down a handful of 2:07's and had a few 2:06 flyers before hitting traffic. I got my optimal down to a 2:06.1 but with the heat and traffic, I just couldn't get it. Ill try again when it cools down a bit |

Best Lap Time: 2:06.6 Brake Pads: BW Alcon CR6420 BBK w/ PFC 331 & stock rear w/ PFC 332 Tires (Size & Model): Azenis RT660 295/30ZR18 square Suspension: MCS 2-ways Other Mods: 2008 E92 M3 w/ 160k miles , Top Speed x pipe, Dinan ECU & DCT tune, CSF Rad, DO88 Oil / DCT Cooler, JPM Roll bar, Sparco PRO ADV, Lifeline Harnesses I finally hit the 2:06's in the E92 at ViR. Nothing changed since the last two weekends, just more speed. It should / would have been a 2:05 without the GT4 blocking me. I lifted at rollercoaster before Hogpen to try and give myself more acceleration room, but he stayed outside and slowed down, so even when I got the point by I couldn't really accelerate as the car was pushing me outside and I didn't want to hit him. Nothing worse than looking over at the Catalyst and watching the Delta change like crazy on the straight. On the bright side, I'm sitting at a high 2:04 optimal and I'm 100% positive that I could hit that on street tires. This may be my last run in it though as I purchased a 991 GT3 and will probably be moving to it full-time and chasing sub 2's. |

Best Lap Time: 1:44:17 Brake Pads: AP Racing Ferodo DS 1.11 front, Ferodo OEM size DS 2500 rear Tires (Size & Model): Nankang CR-S 275/35/18 square Suspension: Nitron R1 Other Mods: Titanium x pipe, Epic tune, bunch of cooling Another run but this time on Nankangs. Love these tires but on this day it was 90F and sunny so the track got up to 130F and they were GREASY. Should've dialed back and saved the tires tbh but I was having too much fun chasing a 1:43 time. Still think I have a lot more pace on the table with this setup.

I have a couple of new PB's to post, i started running NASA TT3 in early 2022.
I'm not a huge fan of the 1st lap flier, as usually the nut behind the wheel isn't fully tightened on lap 2, but it is what it is! I typically throw down my fastest laps on lap 6-7 of a session, however in TT i seemingly find traffic by lap 3. Track/Course: Roebling Road Best Lap Time: 1:14.47 Brake Pads: Ferodo DS3.12 Tires (Size & Model): 275/35/18 hoosier Suspension: MCS 2 way Other Mods: BW Aero, #3450-3470 lbs w driver and ballast, 328HP Detune to fit into classing and tire category. This was a special lap as I broke the TT3 record by .45 seconds, however the camaro in front of me broke it harder at a 1:13.98. This was my first time back at Roebling in about 9 years, so I was overall happy with the laps turned. I got a little too close to the camaro coming out of turn 2 and never shifted to 3rd which cost me at least 2/10ths getting back on throttle. Stupid mistake! Looking back through my data with my coach, I had a 13.88 going into turn the turn 6 braking zone in which i for some reason broke way too early and screwed the lap. It cost me .6 seconds of lap time in that single braking zone. I see a couple areas for improvement in which could yield less time as well. I think the car (and driver) has a high 12 in it, maybe less on a slick.

In with some slowboi times so I can come back and reference as I start tracking the car more:
Vehicle: '11 E92 Comp 6MT Brake Pads: Endless ME20 (stock caliper/rotor) Tires (Size & Model): Michelin Cup 2 255/35r19 F 275/35r19 R Suspension: KW Clubsport 2-Way Other Mods: Stainless brake lines, Motul 600 fluid Track/Course: Willow Springs (Big Willow) Best Lap Time: 1:34.4 Track/Course: Buttonwillow 13CW (my first real day at BW) Best Lap Time: 2:06.6 Car felt like it could become unsettled easily at a couple of corners at BW. Thinking I need to a) be smoother with my steering input in a few areas, and b) I want to play with my suspension settings, as I haven't made any adjustment since install. |

Couple of new PB’s at Sebring this past weekend with NASA FL TT. Saturday was a 2:19.44 which yielded 2nd place in tt3 behind a gt4 at 2:19.20. Sunday was much cooler and clicked off a couple of 2:18’s with the fastest being a 2:18.25.
