Well, the car continues to make progress. With some wider tires than we had at WSIR and -2 deg. of camber, the car is starting to show some promise. Ralph was able to establish an H-Stock record of 2:11.000 on #1 CW configuration




It's looking a little beefier with 255/40x17s on all 4 corners

Thanks - it's a work in progress, but we're working on it. Our goal is build a 135i capable of breaking all of the existing H-Stock records in our region.

Oh, I forgot one very important element - get one hell of a driver to pilot the dang thing. Ralph Warren is one of the best BMW Club Racers in the country (about 15 or so BMW CR track records to his credit).

I'll be posting more on track photos in the 135i on track photo album:
