If its going to be as raw as your 911, then yes I will

My Motorsport Hardware Stud conversion kit came in yesterday. I'm stoked since I no longer have to deal with the hassle of wheel bolts at the track. The quality is excellent and they're TUV approved.

SWEET! I get a birthday present from you I love this car and the weird thing is I don't even look at BMWs that much

I guess you do hahaha. Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words. It's going to undergo a bit of a transformation in the next two months, so I hope you still like it after that haha.

Car is looking awesome as always. Congrats on your last win!

Thank you!

Nothing much going on lately, although I did Plasti Dip my front lip since it had taken a beating at the track.




And here is a shot from the last track day

This thread is great. I can definitely appreciate that the car is eye candy that puts in work. Every race car is a show car in my opinion.

Thank you!

Shes a beaut, is the lighting giving the paint that finish or is it that clean?

The paint is pretty nice, but it has a lot of imperfections. The camera and lighting make it look much nicer than it is.

huuuge savings with that battery. awesome and congrats on the win

Thanks!

Still looking beautiful, but you know what's missing lol

You just wait until November. Super Lap Battle gives me more freedom in the Aero department.

^ Thank you

This weekend I installed the Mirai battery, pulled a few more things for some added weight reduction, and corner balanced the car finally. While I was at it I made a couple of aero modifications to clean up the front end.

Since that WSIR event I managed to win Round 5 of Redline Time Attack at Buttonwillow. I managed to beat the class record in qualifying/practice, but the weather was terrible and couldn't do it in competition. It's a good sign, because the car should be about a second faster in ideal conditions.




I took a bit of a break towards the end of July since I spent the three months prior working on this car most days of the week. There are a few more things that are going to be worked on to get the car ready for the rest of the Redline Time Attack season and Super Lap Battle.



Yesterday I picked up a Mirai battery from Yimi Sport. This is going to be a big source of weight savings since it weighs in at only 2.75lbs vs the 40-50lbs of the factory battery.

After that I'll be doing a couple of things to the interior to try and cut some weight.

tell me more about the gurney flap on the LTW wing, also, who made the wing?

[BenTen]

Ah ok I didnt know there was rules for the events. I will check your 911 build as well.

Do you have any idea how much weight you saved with the exhaust set up you have now over the oem piece?
