Thanks for sharing the info a day late and a dollar short!
The Socal Launch Crew was doing launches and runs in the OC that day. I would've told everyone to drive to the Q if I had known about the autocross. Oh well, next time. As for the Dyno Day, that's the same day as the Central Cali Meet. Can't make it.

Haha... Small world! You borrowed my buddy Scott's helmet for that picture... I was the guy with the grey 3-series, we were putting his camera on my helmet. I mentioned something to him about my friend thinking about putting M5 wheels on his E60... well, that friend is "remuse" that posted above! He's thinking about coming down to the dyno day... I was just talking to him about it on the cell phone about 1/2 hr before that picture! It's my girlfriend arranging that dyno day... come out! Henry should be coming, and we'll see if a K&N and charcoal filter delete dyno any higher!

to the forum. I would love to, but I'm back here in Kauai, Hi. Tell Henry not forget to post the results here. I'll remind the SoCal Launch crew next time so they can use their experience on launches and runs in another competitive aspects. It's nice to be a BMWCCA member, besides Roundel you get the newsletters for upcoming events.

I won 4-cyl modified class, and came in 20th out of 90 cars... not bad for a 318! My girlfriend had 5th fastest time of the day with an 84.222 in her M-swapped 325, I ran a 85.874.
Next autocross isn't for a while tho...
