People on the board who don't track have NO IDEA how much the driver matters when it comes to lap times. It's WAY more important than the car. .

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

Clearly they were running the full course. The year I won the BMW CCA Club Racing IS NE regional championship, the winning IS time at the Octoberfest race at VIR was 2:16.XX. In this year's spring sprint race, only three of 44 racers in the entire BMW CCA Club Racing field beat a 2:08.XX lap time. There are benchmarks. Check them before you try to look smart. Running 2:08.XX straight from the showroom floor - even with Bill Auberlen driving - is phenomenal.

Went from e63 m6 to 6gc to m3 and I love this car for what it is. Nothing compares to the wail of the s85 v10 but it sure is nice not having the looming gloom of spun rod bearings and vanos issues. Always had to have at least $7k on the side for that car.
