excellent, please ensure that you bring the beast with you

Unsure whether I will or just tag along. No point trying to run my thing down the quarter - I know it'll do a flat 11.

lol I told the mong yesterday that he should bring his swift, i think that would be 5 hours though.

aedeau · 03-23-2009, 08:47 PM

how packed does it normally get on a Sat? I'm not that keen on paying the $38 and only getting 2 runs in and the rest of the time lining up.

I would imagine that being a saturday night it will be pretty busy but im not sure about how many runs we will get. I will still be going just for the experience and to meet up with some other guys. If its too busy ill look at going back on a weeknight or whenever its not so busy. has anyone here been recently on a saturday? let us know.

Cheers,

Matt.

Well guys Im going to have to give it a miss on this one, once I get my DMS tune on my NA engine then I will be looking to unleash her against a 135i which has been affected by the HPFP problem, at least that way I can justify the expense and say I beat a 135i

(bored at work, think I'm going a little crazy)

sparoz · 03-24-2009, 09:27 AM

It's the F1 opening weekend you know? And I am conning my wife to work that day too... otherwise I can take my wife's 120d to go up against the 118i

Orlin · 03-25-2009, 03:28 AM

120d is decent as far as diesels go. I'd put my money on that

sparoz · 03-25-2009, 04:20 AM

Alright, have to do it before it's replaced by the 125i in June.
