I this the rear rotor went and probably locked up the back wheel

[StripclubDJ]

Feel so bad for the owner , hopefully he's ok

[slicer]

Damn. Anything can happen at the track. I hope he is OK.

The Badger Chapter event is great. Perfect time of year in the past. It was usually on the last weekend of September. Not sure how Oct will be.

Be sure to have good brake pads and a spare set. This track can be very hard on brakes.

Oh...be prepared to spend about 50% more in fuel. It's a stupid fast track with a lot more time full throttle.

Sorry to hear about your father.

I'm not into sports, but it's always sad when families suffer a tragedy like this.

We should rent NYST and spend two days driving E92 M3 in circles

I can secure Sep 24/25 for a private 2 days.
The track comes fully staffed and we just need to show up.

What would be the best way to gage interest?

Thanks. I needed one more car for contingency.

Kind of a mixed bag. I was really hoping to put down a 1:38 this weekend. My best is a 1:39 and I feel like I have progressed as a driver, but was stuck in the 1:40's.

I lost my diffusor Friday and broke a radiator mount. I zip tied radiator and it held up well.

Sorry I wasn't able to say hello. I walked by a couple of times but you always looked pretty busy.

I have looked at my data and had a friend look at it as well. Several places to find time. Unfortunately I only drive the track once a year and in a different direction each time.

Congrats on Comp School. Have fun in March. Cresson is one of my favorites but I won't make it this year.

Things like that aren't doing any favors for the fluid either.

Lol I was lazy. Those were the seals going. I rebuilt afterwards anyways with the springs.

But fluid and pedal were rock solid even with that.

Both. Then I went to srf. Never went to rbf again.

Guys, figured you guys might know. Does Bimmerworld ever run any sping/race season/group buy sales? I missed out on their black friday sale and wanted to buy a set of wheels.

Apex Group Buy.
I'm really tempted to pickup an 11" Square setup, but I'm gonna hold off...for now.

Not a huge fan of the EC7 I would need to clear my brakes. I had to sell my ARC8s that don't clear.
The BW TA5R seems like a nice wheel I'd like to try.

BF deal was $1087 shipped which is awesome price imo. But even at $1280 with free shipping they have now, I might still do it, still not a bad deal.

I saw these in person on a E36 and they looked really nice. Nicer than a set of ARC-8s for sure.
