First track day! 335i - Please no hate - All about the fun!

[Smackiee 15]

First time track day ever. Car handled great though did not push my luck due to first time learning and wet track.

2009 BMW 335i M sport

MHD stage 1 tune

HKS BOV

POTENZA RE003

Everything else stock.

DSC OFF, DTC ON

Hampton down - Club circuit track.

By no means I am an excellent driver at track, all about the fun.

Not ideal conditions for first time out on a track!

You're absolutely right - all about the fun.

I was quite surprised as to how it handled on the wet.

My friend in the 32 GTR was having issues putting power down in the wet with his RE002s. He was extremely surprised as well.

There was a couple sessions in the dry which I will be uploading  a bit later on.

But overall lots of fun and can't wait to be back on!

Mark! Thanks

I need some more info on this event on the 11th of August at National track. Can you point me in the right direction?

Would be keen to go!

Ignore that last message, It is being run by HD AUTO which is the same people who did yesterdays session!

I will definitely check if I can make it!

[Smackiee 15]

Some laps on a more dry track.

Nice. Still only been to one track session myself and badly want to do it again. It was sooooo fun. Hope I can film my next time like that too.

I agree, I knew I was going to enjoy it but after the session I was itching for more!

 

I should post for interest on a track day for this group

 

@Matth5 Did you also do the club circuit at hampton for your first time?

Mine was at Pukekohe, they had a Grabone special for a single 20 min session last year.

Oh sweet, we went through 6 x 20 min session on Sunday and felt it was the right amount. But after getting home was wanting more haha
