Guest TimJohn Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Whats up guys, my name is T.J., this is my first time ever on a forum, so I'm kinda new to the whole deal, I've only ever dealt with them in the past for info. I'm a mechanic at a rental facility in Milwaukee. I went to school to work on cars, got sucked into the heavy machinery side due to the stability of the business. I have a track e30 that I do endurance racing with, the chump and lemons racing. I make a lot of my own parts, and generally spend way to much time trying to get every ounce of power/speed/handling out of the little guy. I'm also friends with 2 other endurance teams in the area with e30s, so when i make a part, I usually make a few sets. Anyways, thanks for having me, hope to make the meet up tomorrow in mequon tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merl Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Welcome !! I will be in Mequon tomorrow as well although it looks like I will be fashionably late as work has me doing a change at 5. I will be doing OktoberFAST in Sept with the BMWCCA as well. I am not sure if you participate in HPDE as well but let me know !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TimJohn Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Cool! I should be up there by 5ish, goin with my buddy in his 99 M coupe. I think that HPDE event requires a passenger seat and harness, not sure if i wanna get the stuff together to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merl Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Yes, unless you can run in the advanced group. Then you run solo. I would have to look at how that works ... Boris may know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tnc9897 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Anyone else going up there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris3 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Yep, novice and intermediate run groups at ofast would require a comparable passenger seat and belts for the instructor. Advanced is typically solo but sometimes a checkoff ride in the first session depending on experience. Looks like all the run groups are full and wait lists have been started.

Boris3 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 They still need instructors. If you have experience contact Mike Clemens. If not but you're interested in becoming one they run an instructors clinic on Friday and then you're an instructor for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
