First trip to the track....

Hey G-Rat let me know if you’re going to hit up the rocky mtn raceways again or want to do some pulls. I have a little break before MBA courses begin so I am curious to see what my car can actually do (with me driving)

The altitude is such a killer…bigserve134 I bet you woild do well. It would be interesting to see howuch the blower helps. If you thunk about it the s4 and the s5 are close in hp. It wouldn’t be an apples ro apples compair when you add it all up it would be good refrence

Awesome idea bigserve… I’ve wanted to see/ride in your car anyways. Not sure if I will bring my car back to the track though, unless I have something else to try (eg. adding exhaust). Just don’t have anything to prove and don’t want to break anything unnecessarily.

But I do plan to take my wife’s 335XI to the track in the next couple weeks. I’ll let you know once I know when.

Totally agree Chris… although my car isn’t a record setter by any means, we could sure compare the two to see the potential that the SC has to compensate for the thin air.

i for all intents and purposes tied his stg 2 results with “70 fewer ponies and tqs”

G rat if you can, log the car during your passes to see what its doing, and if at all possible get some ice on your intake mani. my times swayed around .3-.5 difference from letting the car cool down. i powershifted my ass off and used a little icing for a glory pass and eeked out a 14.1 but never posted it. something to consider.

Bigserve… up for midnight drags tomorrow night?

Unfortunately I have plans tonight. But ill IM you my number and lets schedule another night!

Well, it’s official. At 13.9 at 98, my wife’s bone stock car is much faster than mine. Today is a sad day.

What does she drive?

Edit: Nevermind, I see now, 335xi
