merl Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I was going to start this earlier but I forgot - I forget a lot - it might be a tumor Just random shots of dis-assembly at this point. I will try to remember a real camera next time (here we go with the f*ing forgetting again) so the shots are a bit better. I will tell you what is happening if you want to know or it just can be a surprise every time I update ....

YoungCR Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Ohh I know I know! B35 swap still? Oh and I forgot to tell ya the M30B28 for my euro ended up not being sold, so I won't be buying your B34 unless that thing blows up or isn't fixable.

B C Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 HEyyyy!!! I am pretty sure I met you and complimented you on your car at Blackhawk on Aug 20th. I was one of the Black E30s that rolled down with you and the silver E36 M3 . This is me (refresher) I'm looking forward to seeing updates!

Brian. Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 @Snap Understeer ... You doing HPDE this year ? I cannot wait !! Gunna track the 535IS? Curious to see how bad the body roll is.

Brian. Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'd like to track my E28 once I get a better suspension set up. But that won't be for awhile sadly =\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B C Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Hmm, sweet. I guess I'll have to attend an event, see how you do! If you just want to attend the classroom sessions, hang out at the track, and take rides with instructors then its only $30 + helmet rental at Blackhawk.

Rather just bring my own helmet, which I've yet to purchase... =\ Idk, i'd have to hit you guy's up. I'd love to get into some autocross/head pe events.
