Do you remove your spacers for track days?

I searched but couldn't find much on this. A few threads indicate that this isn't an issue, but nothing discussing the pros and cons.

I can't wait to run the 3.1 at MSR (Cresson, TX) next month!

Short answer: No.

Long answer: No. I don't run spacers on the E90 but I did on the former E46, at every single track event. No issues whatsoever. I don't know where the "spacers are bad" myth comes from.

It comes from the people that dont understand how they work so they install them incorrectly and have issues!
