  1. Don't forget the  .1  ? Richard.

    I'm stoked as my analysing of my June visit to HD said that 1.17.3 was my theoretical best lap.

    After Julys visit my new theoretical best lap time is 1.16.4

    I may get one more driver training if it's a very fine day on my existing rubber.

    But a new set of rubber, is on my shopping list.

    Hope all goes well on Saturday for you


  2. HD last Saturday was very fine and very cold only 3C :excl:

    Had a lot of fun with a number of other Bimmers out there.

    An interesting wear pattern on my front left inside. (ran the same camber settings as June -3.5,

    But I was naughty as I didn't check the temps or pressures after first setting them at 35 cold, but by the hand omiter they were only ever just warm to the touch. 

    New Best Time 1.17.17

  3. Guys take the video clip as intended.

    It was taken by a kind gentlemen who thought that my car had the best sounding exhaust on the day    ?

    And also figured that I wouldn't have heard the exhaust sound/note from trackside. 

    He was right, sounds great at 190 to 201 under the track lights

  4. Drivers training Hampton Downs 9th June

    Thanks again Dave the rack worked well at HD.

    But it's back to the drawing board with my twin fuel pump system.

    In the final session I had fuel stravation coming out of turn 1 and turn 3.

    Filled up again at Pokeno 43ltrs. So roughly 20ltrs left when stravation started.

    Didn't set a personal best this time 1.17.7 (I may have peaked ?)

    Rear lower bush $70nz or $25 from US each

    Same part Sponsored Race car (parts @ cost) $6.00 nz each.

    Old stories but true

    Sorry mate,  but the poor old bmwnz companies lack of profit margin is a joke
