Anyone with some runs in this year? ....Bob?

Anything set for next year?

BlackC4 · 11-22-2008, 03:34 PM

I didn't run this year although I won 2 out of 3 the year before. Ettsn might've run a few.

masermartin · 11-22-2008, 04:14 PM

When you won, what were you driving?

BlackC4 · 11-24-2008, 10:32 AM

996 C4. I ended up losing the third because I was on street tires and the other two were on race tires.

masermartin · 11-24-2008, 04:03 PM

Oh, well then shoudn't they have been in a different class?

This was my first season running with the Peachtree BMW club. I had a lot of fun and made a lot of improvement. Next season I hope to attend every event, and will be riding on stickier rubber.

Yeah you would think they would be in different classes but PCA put them in one. I think it had to do with numbers of entrants and not allowing that to fill all classes.

Ian did you run the M3? Is it an E36? Do you know the guys at TRM (The Racers Market)?

I've only put maybe 1,000 miles on my E36 M3 since I bought it last spring, so I raced it last season to get a better feel for the car. It's not quite as fast or as fun as my turbo Miata, but has more grip and really comes alive in the corners.

I live in Marietta, so if this season's PCA events are at White Water again I'll have to join the club so that I can run with you guys.

The autocrosses have been my only BMW club events so far, so I still have a lot of members to meet. I've seen the TRM guys on bimmerforums.com, but don't think I've had a chance to meet them.

I didn't realize they were doing the PCA events at White Water, I'll have to check that out.

As for the TRM guys, one of them Techno550 is a moderator here. Good guys. They helped us put together the LeMons race car last year.
