Perfect

Looking forward to it! Want to try and get my crankhub done before, but we'll see

[TractionControlDelete]

As an update, the date will be Saturday, October 28th. Who’s in? Taking the final headcount before locking it in this week

[WarMachineM3]

I might be down. Just trying to get the 10/28 off.

[regpaq]

we still doing this? i’m down. let’s get to 5. WarMachineM3 would love to hear your titanium VD exhaust in person compared to my steel one

[TractionControlDelete]

So here’s who I’ve got:

TractionControlDelete
MrFrosty's
E30Fever
F80RN
Limegrntaln
Danieldanielkim
BzsBimmer
regpaq
pmathew
WarMachineM3

Please confirm, by responding in this thread, if you’re still in! This will allow me to know if I should reserve the smaller skidpad or the larger one.

And to the extent that October 28th no longer works with your schedule/plans, then just give me a quick heads up.

[F80RN]

I’m in!

[BzsBimmer]

I should be in. Praying for no flight delays on that Friday.

Oh yeah😄I'm interested in hearing what the steel version sounds like in person. I like both!

TractionControlDelete do you know if they are renting helmets at the track? I don’t have one and I see they are mandatory.

Also are we just going to do fun sideways runs or are we setting up an auto-x cone setup?

They don’t have helmet rentals there as far as I know. I’ve done it before and they’re pretty loose with the helmet rule in the sense that a cheap motorcycle helmet has done the job in past visits (as opposed to a SA2015 or SA2020 one)

Ok. I’ll have to give them a ring. I know when I did a track day prior, they had helmet rentals but it could have been with the track group. This was also many years ago. Thanks

Keep us updated. I’ve seen gear/helmet rentals when doing track days with an organization but not just individually.

Sorry, been locked out of my account due to some password issues. Yes! I’m still in, assuming cost is still similar to the original estimate.

Great! I’m going to make the purchase today. Ultimately it will be divided among the attendees. I’ll take payment from attendees by Friday

[TractionControlDelete]

UPDATE:

October 28th is locked in!! Contract and Deposit done.

So here is who I have:

BzsBimmer (PAID ✅)
WarMachineM3 (PAID ✅)
MrFrosty's (PAID ✅)
regpaq (PAID ✅)
F80RN (PAID ✅)
TractionControlDelete (PAID ✅)
Friend who isn’t on this forum (PAID ✅)

The above list is based on people who have contacted me directly. If you were not included on this list then the assumption is that you will not be attending (please don’t show up if you haven’t confirmed with me). However, if you would like to attend but not on the list then reach out to me in this thread or directly through PM.

As discussed, we will split the cost evenly. The split is based on the cars in attendance so spectators are more than welcome to come for free. Due to the number of attendees (8) the small skidpad would cost $1000 for the first 5 cars then $150 each for cars 6-8 for a total of $1450 (The Big Skid Pad is already booked for that day).

As such, the price per attendee is $181.25 each. For payment, I will use Venmo. Please include your Bimmerpost profile name in the description!

EDIT: Number of participant cars reduced to seven (7).
