Why not! It'll be my first time, but have to start somewhere I guess. All I need is a Helmet correct?

Go out have some fun! There a friendly bunch of people out there.

The launch is the hard part with 19 inch tyres. I didn't do a burnout either on my passes (just a 2 second one on the first warm up to clear the shit off the tyres) I decided to take the mechanical sympathy approach! I'd shudder to think how much BMW would charge to fix a broke one!

Your car is also much fresher than mine engine wise as well. So there could be even more in yours with a burnout, tough launch and a sub 2 second 60ft time!

As for the trap speed. It's around 2 km/h slower than what the major magazine's tested them as new when first released. (Only have the figures for 18's inch wheels) So eh

Even better yet, why not come out the circuit?

There are still spaces available for Round 2 of the BMWDC NSW Supersprint series held at Oran Park on the GP circuit. Entry form here!

See you there!

Ben, I don't know about "even better"! Surely drag racing is the ultimate experience for any red blooded man with his clothes on!

A mighty 10 second pass with your cloths off won't get you many points with the mrs!

Its all about Barry White's "Stayin' Power".

I do enjoy activities that last a bit longer than 10 seconds!

While I'm here, Kenny can update the times list with times from last year.

Wakefield - 1:10.94
Oran Park GP - 1:23.67
Eastern Creek - 1:58.59 (slow run in new compact - recorded 1:55.* in old car prior to incident)
Winton - 1:51.64 (old E36 323 with very tired engine back in 03)

Ben, were the times at Wakefield and Oran Park in the old 323 or the current compact? I went to update it but then realised I wasn't sure which car those times were in
