yea, my friend and I were there.

I was busy getting out of ppl's ways in my stock car with 4 year old tires. And I think I pointed a black e90 m3 with big wing (you?) by many times.

Yea that was me. Haha tires are huge out there. Lots of people with money for tons of tire. I feel very under-tired on 275 NT01 when a guy in a C7 vette complains he is struggling because he is running "skinny" tires...skinny being 315 Pirelli DH vs his normal 345... I'm like "okay "

Cool to see other E9X out there though!

Hope I didn't block you on your timed attempts. I saw you guys were flying through the corners. While it's not grippy, the stock car is very responsive to my inputs (good and bad) so I was able to get a lot practise and even had a few countersteering moments in T15. My friend who did a few F4 races also commented on this car being a good and fun learning tool.

Nah, not at all. I was breaking in some new NT01's most of the day anyways. These cars are so great to drive.

T15 is so fun to slide! Surpisingly not very scary given the wall there. The camber gives you good stability. The thumb is the best for it though!

Whoever was driving the E92 with the bronze wheels had some serious rear slip angle going! Fun to watch.

Spotted a lowered, white M3 coupe with black spoiler and aftermarket intake on highway 14 heading into downtown Vancouver on Sunday morning. I was on my way into downtown myself, to drop my Blackstone sample at the post office....lol

That's mine! Man the 219m don't look good with aero on the car. Thankfully retiring those from street beater duty soon, and using the NT03+m instead.

I was down there yesterday (Saturday) in my IB E90, picking up some poke, but didn't see that E92. There was pretty good sized JDM car show going on at 6th and South King.

Ohh def didn't know , I did see like 4-5 cars park behind each other, jam vibes. Idk if the e92 was just picking up something cause I saw it enter and leave same time as me ... Hopefully see it at a car meet or coffee meet. one day or something ... exhaust setup sounded good and loud enough to my liking.

I have a Valvtorntic design one , always on.... may consider something future wise a tad louder ... only downside is sometimes I feel like it's a loud hollow with not enough other tones or rasp ...

Lol. Exactly. I was in the next lane in my e30 and turned left in shame. To most of the neighborhood, that car sounded super broken
