And you Sir, is one of the members in here that I learned a lot from and whom I have a lot of respect for! Always very knowledgeable, factual and polite. I must say I also kinda miss those days. Both for it being so educational for myself, as I learned a lot in those discussions, and also how fun it was at times. But in the end there was too many negative members (trolls) that behaved obnoxious just to create a negative spin it seemed. That took the fun out of it in the end for me. |

No, it will be to replace my CS. I am really not fond of what they did technically to the G8X. I would love a GT Porsche, but I need a 4-season daily driver with rear seats to schlepp the kiddies around and that I can also take to the track, so figured might as well go with the turbo to make it worthwhile .

They are still quite young at 9 and 6, so yes, they do fit.

Vorshlag camber plates are great and totally would say you ought to do them if you start tracking more. One of our local CCA members was the test-car for their new design for the f8x and has said they're quiet and he's had no issues. Also, check out or local BMW autocross too sometime, there's an event coming up this Sunday.

When you mentioned changing tires to drop a bit of time on the track - one thing to consider is that being faster might not necessarily be the best thing for a beginner. It doesn’t have to - but it definitely can slow down growth a bit. It raises the line to a higher speed - just that much harder to get to and typically requiring a bit more reactionary speed and skill to bring the car back. You might already have this down from other adventures so might not be applicable in your case - but if not just wanted to give you a heads up. Recovery is typically easier to learn at lower speeds so while adding grip right now might seem like they way to go it might actually be the opposite. Also boost by gear is nice - you F8x guys and all that fancy power - awesome to be able to adjust as needed. Welcome to the addiction!

I have no regrets on my P-car purchase, only that I wish I had more time to drive it. Just had mine in for it's yearly service, and just 1000 miles driven since last time. The concierge-like service department experience is almost worth getting a Porsche, lol! I still technically have three BMW's, so I feel i'm entitled to check in here once in awhile. Now, if would only get that darn lap time thread updated.

I personally have not had any experience with them, but I have heard their service and ease to deal with is very good.

It's agreed value. I think this season I was insuring for 70k for $340 per event. This includes buying a 6 pack at a time and the PCA/BMWCCA discount
If you only do say 4 events in a year the other 2 would carry over for the following season Something I really like about them, besides that they're a small company owned by racers, is that if a friend is flying over from Europe for an event and using the same car I'm insuring there's no extra cost even though we're running twice as many sessions. |

Finally made it to the promised land. Wasn’t expecting it to be open, going to try and get on track tomorrow, but Merc crossover is certainly not ideal.
