SSC it is then!

I heat cycle my tires in Route 3 NH (Everett Pwy in NH) between exits 1 and 8 and part of 93/89 depending on ambient temp.
There is a parking lot I know that I sometimes check the tires (for grip of course) ... I also measure the angle of body roll :lol: :lol: and determine there is absolutely nothing I can do about that. :dontknow: other than pray it will stick to the ground [-o<

excessive body roll is the key to achieving the huge positive camber that is the secret to the bmws fast exit speed.

Thats correct. That was a very carefully planned and executed manuever, also very advanced I dont suggest anyone else attempt it. Also we plan on challenging for the 'Most badly dented car in COM' trophy this year.

Oh yeah, that Honda S2000 "lost weight" actually. Wonder if it affected displacement and consequently changed class??? :lol: :lol:

Any bonus points for painting your car with NHIS turn 1 safer barrier? Or using the wall to correct a camber problem that otherwise couldn't be adjusted?

Also, what the heck did you do to end up in SPA with your BMW?

the 318ti is going to be ssc this year. I'm also working on a 325e project that has lots of part swaps and a turbo. At best it could be ready for tremblant but more likely later. I'm really hoping to get it done some time before the end of the season but we'll have to wait and see.
