Ahh OK. I'm going to Gingerman later this year with a Honda group, but would consider ABCC (especially if it's full track). What group are you going to Autobahn with?

I had a great outing at VIR last month. This was my first time running with r compound tires and dedicated track brake pads.
In the past, my laps had usually hovered in the 2:17 range. I had a ton of lap time on this 3 day weekend, which allowed me to really bring down my times.

VIR full NASA Hyperfest
Track VIR full
Event NASA TT May 20th/21st 2016 E92 M3 DCT (still street legal) Best Lap Time: 2:05.23 (Harry's and NASA transponder result) Tires: Hoosier 295/315 Suspension: KW CS Other mods: see my signature Had a good weekend, won 2nd place on Saturday in TT3, was beaten by only 0.25 sec by a Corvette. However my best lap in the afternoon got destroyed by a competitor's blown tire right in front of me. That lap was a virtual time of 2:03:30! Next time... Car feels great , all mods work. Car is still too heavy (with driver and 3/4 gas) 3655 lbs. Cheers

I decided last minute to go to Speed Ventures' Auto Club Speedway today. Had a really fun day! Turn out was pretty light so there was some nice open track.
I go to Auto Club Speedway very infrequently. I think this was only my fourth or fifth visit there ever. Honestly, the oval's not really my cup of tea. Anyway, I DEMOLISHED my previous best from a couple years ago by over 7 seconds. According to the transponder, I ran two laps in the 1:46's today. For the record, DSC was off. E90 M3 Track/course: Auto Club Speedway Best Lap Time: 1:46.62 (transponder) Brakes: AP Racing - Cobalt Friction XR2 front/XR3 rear Tires: Hankook TD 295/30/18 square on Apex Arc-8 10.5" (new tires) Suspension: JRZ RS Pro Other mods: VF620, RD Sport front sway bar, car is gutted with full roll cage, APR 67" GT-250 wing, carbon lip, APR front splitter, Akrapovic X-Pipe, exhaust: straight through with resonators, Recaro Pro Racer halo seat, DSC-off. The car felt great. The aero is incredible on the oval. It REALLLY holds the car down. My max speed on the oval today according to GPS speed was 154.2 mph. That is the fastest I have ever gone in any car. My quickest minimum speed on the oval today was 130 mph. Here's the video: |

Track: Gingerman Raceway
E92 335i Auto Best Lap Time: 1:47.48 Tires: Hankook R-S3 (5 track days old) Other mods: AP BBK w/ Colbat XR2 front axle, Stock caliper w/ PFC 08 rear axle, TCK DA coilovers, LSD, Tuned and modded engine at about 370-380whp, and bunch of boring reliability mods that you can read from my signature. Car is quite a bit down on power this time since I detune it to run on 93 pump gas instead of E85 like before. Lost about a second from my last year's time, but I think the tradeoff in sheer speed is well worth it since I can better concentrate on improving my braking and cornering. Was hoping to improve the lines even more in the later sessions, but my water pump starts to fail (about time I suppose), which was a big bummer.

What tire sizes do you run? It's a little hard to tell from a video but it seems your car has some understeer that might be limiting the overall grip. Still impressed with the power to be honest. Even on this tune it still seems like it has a hint more grunt than most E9x M3s. Likely just all that mid range torque really showing itself. |

Yeah, this car always understeer, from stock suspension, to the upgraded spring/shock with Dinan camber plate kit I ran before, to the TCK coilover w/ Vorshalg plat that I run right now. I have learnt to deal with it by applying more trail braking, but if you guys have some tips to help with this more, I am all ears. I am also running E93 M3 front sway, and non-M stock rear sway, spring rates are 400lb-in front and 700lb-in rear just FYI. -3 degree front and -2 rear for camber, -0.1 toe front and rear. M cars can run wider and lower offset wheels up front and 275-285 tires up front, so I guess it might help quite a bit.

If I were you I would swap to a stock front sway bar or alternatively put on an M rear sway bar. In your case what you want to do is to increase the stiffness of the rear relative to the front which will actually help front end grip. If you still have the stock front bar I would try that first since it would be free and your spring rates now seem pretty reasonable. |

Not keen on running stiffer sway in the rear, car can already a handful with all that torque as you can see from my vids lol.

Went to a SpeedSF event for the first time at Laguna Seca today. Really enjoyed it! Nice guys.
This was the first time driving Laguna Seca with DSC-off, full aero and R1S tires. Lots to adjust to, but I was happy with the results---1:36.4. Everything on the car was working nicely today. I had to put on my stock exhaust to make the 90db sound limit. That went fine, although I still feel like I tip-toe through there. In general, there's definitely more time to be had. I did have a faster lap going but messed up braking going towards the corkscrew.
