Anyone planning on going?

We'll be out with 4 cars. Which 4 is still a bit up in the air as several cars are apart for various reasons. Most likely:

Jon will be racing our M5 with the speed limiter finally removed
Jason will be racing our Pure Turbo M3
Ando will be racing our stock turbo M4

I'll either be racing our Pure Turbo E92 with a new junkyard motor (currently apart), our MOTIV 135i with the MT swap done (currently apart), or our stock turbo bolt on 135i. For the stock turbo 135i we're going to install inlets and a few other mods to spice it up. For the short term our 335is has to stay stock as we're using it to CARB certify parts. If all else fails I might wind up in the B58 again or if things got really bad, we have two Pure Turbo N55s I could take. I hope it doesn't come to having to race an N55 though.

I won't be able to come out because of Passover. It falls on the first two nights which is the most important

His 135 swap isn't done yet. I'm assuming it's at Ivan's which is why my car hasn't gotten any love in the last two weeks..

[Terry @ BMS]

Yes it's been at Ivan's for around three weeks, lol. Not sure he's even started it yet.

Were gonna skip this one. Any SS events except for the last test, and tune event are honestly not worth it in my opinion, you wait sometimes 30-45 minutes between runs, and the course isn't even a true 1/2 mile. We will be taking our cars to the drag strip, while waiting for the next NFZ event.

NFZ is a lot more fun. But both events have a unique feel. SS is really not great for test and tune due to the lack of runs but you do get better media exposure there.

I would love to go to a track day Seder! Why is this trap speed different from all other trap speeds?

Looking forward to seeing some great results, and Terry, I envy you and the difficult decision of which crazy ride to race on Saturday.

LMAO, that was too perfect for this. I doubt many would understand hahaha. I went 2 years ago and I didn't know it fell on passover. Ugh, it was a headache taking food and coolers etc.

There is an open track day near me on Sunday, but I don't know how well brisket and charoset would hold up for the day. I'll just stay home and wait for Terry to post the day's results instead.

Which track?

[Terry @ BMS]

We were not able to get the PURE E92 done in time. It's running but has a mystery AFR issue. Oh well, next week for that. The 135i MT swap is also still MIA.

We did get the inlets on the stock turbo 135i. They look awesome. But power on the dyno was kind of disappointing, only ~430whp, despite boost, timing, and AFR all being spot on at the ~480whp level I was expecting. Installing the inlets we noticed the turbos (which have 100k miles) had a lot of shaft play & oil leaking internally. IC was full of it. So maybe that is the reason its down on power. Anyway, I'll run this car tomorrow for kicks. And get some hybrids on it in the future.

On the plus side of things we were able to get the M5 speed limiter flashed out.

Ahh thats no fun at all. That poor e92 is basically cursed it seems.

Anyways, where did you get the m5 flashed for speed delimiter. Everyone I talk to wants to just throw their tune on it when I just want a speed limiter removed.

You can run my car if you want and crank up the boost. I've got pure stage 2s in hand that need to go in ASAP anyway.

It's called "BPMSport". May work with them to develop a good s63tu back end flash map. But for now, just had them remove the limiter on it, so Jon can have a little fun tomorrow.
